Welcome to the geeky, girly, brunch-y community event that's sweeping the nation, at long last arriving in Ontario, Canada! This is the official blog for the Toronto/Niagara chapter, where we'll be giving you the most up-to-date information on our launch and other future brunch events, letting you get to know our 4 amazing officers, and even geeking out on occasion about our favorite fandoms. Geek Girl Brunch is launching a Toronto/Niagara chapter in May 2015 and we are counting down the days!
"In a galaxy far far away . . . some geek girls had brunch" - Jamila Rowser
This incredible tradition of geek girls getting together to dress up, have fun and cheers each over over mimosas began in NYC with these 6 lovely ladies pictured above. Since then, Geek Girl Brunch has grown in popularity n a way nobody expected. They're hosted numerous brunch events in the Big Apple, helped to co-host other geeky events (such as the Geeks Night Out event as part of New York Comic Con in 2014, in conjunction with the International Geek Girl Pen Pals Club), and GGB has also become an international phenomenon, with chapters popping up in Europe and other parts of the world. Now it's Canada's turn to get in on the action!
How It Works: One Saturday or Sunday every month, geek girls will gather together to fuel up on brunch to kick things off. Each month will hold a corresponding theme, and brunchettes are encouraged (but not required) to dress up according to that theme. Attendees will get to meet new people in a fun and friendly environment. It's all part of the fun! All brunchettes will also receive a free swag bag filled with geeky goodies!
After brunch, we'll all head off together as a group for a field trip corresponding with that month's theme! All of the details will be posted well in advance of the big day, along with all the details regarding the location, date and time.
Have any questions? Feel free to post them below! We'll be posting more information on our launch very soon, and we'll also be posting some FAQ information here on the blog. If you have any questions we will be sure to answer them as quickly as possible.
