Philly Geek Awards 2017

The Philly Geek Awards are an awards ceremony honoring outstanding achievements in Philadelphia’s vibrant geek community. It was founded by Geekadelphia in 2011 and in 2016 Technical.ly and Generocity joined. 

From local game developers to comic book artists, social media marketers to the arts & culture community, the awards highlight a bit of everything.

This year’s awards are happening at String Theory Schools. Your ticket gets you a swanky cocktail party followed by an awards ceremony for the books. Passed hors d'oeuvres, multiple bars amongst mini exhibits and cosplay will make this another unforgettable Philly Geek Awards.

Dress code is black tie so show up dressed to impress and strike a pose on that red carpet!
