Special Guest - Atomic Improv!
Atomic Improv stars the incredible talent of comedic legend Donovan Workun and Chris Borger… last seen by the ISA Edmonton Section at our “St. Paddy’s Industry Party Cajun’d” in 2017! Atomic Improv has performed all over the world, starting as local legends at Edmonton’s Sidetrack Café to headlining at Montreal’s “Just for Laughs” festival and San Francisco Comedy Festival, hosting the red carpet at the Junos and preforming at the 2012 London Summer Olympics.
Chess Tournament
New for 2025 and the “quieter” side of the fun! Our chess tournament will take place from 3pm to 4:30pm during Networking Happy Hour. The format is Blitz Armageddon (white 5 minute and black 4 minute) and allows for 32 players. We begin with two 15 minute rounds of 16 players each, with the winners advancing until the final round.
