Vancouver's community of practice
for enterprise IT
Events & Sessions
Monthly technical sessions, multi-session tracks, and hands-on labs across Metro Vancouver. Vendor-neutral. Practitioner-led.
How Our Sessions Work
Practitioner-Led
Sessions are delivered by working IT professionals, not vendor sales teams. Real experience, real environments, real problems.
Vendor-Neutral
We don't run sales sessions. Sponsors support the community — they don't own the content.
Track-Based
Sessions connect to multi-part learning tracks so you build on knowledge over time, not just attend one-off talks.
Free to Attend
Every VanTUG session is free. No ticket fees, no paywalls. We're volunteer-run and community-funded. Sponsors keep the lights on — they don't charge the door.
In-Person in Vancouver
Sessions are held across Metro Vancouver — Downtown, Burnaby, Surrey, and campus locations. Check each event for the specific venue.
Hands-On Where It Counts
Not every session has a lab component — but the ones that do are clearly marked. Bring your laptop when we say so. Lab sessions have limited seats.
