Mensa Canada Annual Gathering 2026

Let's Party Like it's 1986!

Welcome to the Mensa Canada Annual Gathering 2026, hosted by Mensa Vancouver.  This event is for registered members of Mensa and their guests, both local and worldwide, to get together to mingle, listen to speakers, learn new things, play games, and have fun.  We plan to have two tracks of simultaneous speakers, Youth Events, plus a Games Room. Stay tuned.

40 years ago Vancouver invited the world to Expo 86. What a party! We didn't realize at the time that Vancouver was being reinvented - from a sleepy Canadian outpost to the doorway to the Pacific Rim - a world class city.

So let's play with the past - the music, the food, the clothing - loud, bold and unapologetically colourful - and, as well as having fun, we'll see if we can be reinvented.
