NerdBrew Events Information

NerdBrew Foundation is a 501(c)(3) public charity building inclusive communities through games, fandom, events, volunteering, and shared interests. NerdBrew grew out of NerdBrew Events, a grassroots Tampa Bay community project founded in 2016 to create geek-friendly events that were actually fun, easy to join, and welcoming to people looking to meet others. What started with trivia nights, karaoke, board games, D&D, convention programming, video games, fandom events, and themed social nights has grown into a broader mission: helping people find their people. Over the years, NerdBrew has hosted thousands of events and welcomed many thousands of participants across Tampa Bay, Orlando, conventions, and online community spaces. Along the way, we learned that the event itself is only the starting point. The real impact happens when strangers become friends, regulars become volunteers, and shared interests become lasting community. Today, NerdBrew Foundation creates welcoming spaces where people can play together, meet others, stay connected, and build real-world friendships through games, fandom, creativity, and community programming. ur work includes local events, convention activations, tabletop and social gaming, D&D, karaoke, educational programming, volunteer engagement, member-led outings, community partnerships, and digital spaces that help people stay connected between events. NerdBrew is built on a simple belief: People need places to belong. We create the conditions where that belonging can happen.
