Reviews
"I had the privilege of attending PechaKucha Night in Johannesburg on Thursday, and it was an unforgettable experience! The atmosphere was electric—filled with creativity, inspiration, and the vibrant energy of people passionate about sharing their ideas and stories.
The format of 20 slides with 20 seconds each kept every presentation dynamic and engaging. It was incredible to see how diverse topics could come to life in such a concise, visually rich way. Each speaker brought something unique to the table, from thought-provoking insights to moments of humor and vulnerability.
The event was well-organized, and the venue created the perfect setting for connection and conversation. I walked away not only inspired but also feeling part of a larger community that values innovation, storytelling, and meaningful dialogue.
If you're looking for an event that ignites creativity and leaves you buzzing with ideas, PechaKucha is a must-attend. Johannesburg, you nailed it!"
