Event


FITC Holiday Jam

After spending an afternoon learning about the latest and greatest in AR and VR, why not go have a drink and check it out in person? Come out to FITC Holiday Jam at House of VR to check out some cool demos by Globacore, Jam3, Tendril and more! It’s also your chance to see familiar faces in everything digital in Toronto – past FITC speakers, volunteers, friends and industry pals.

The event is free to attend with your Spotlight wristband but we are encouraging everyone for a “pay-what-you-can” donation to Canada Learning Code (formerly known as Ladies Learning Code), and you can do so at the party.

We look forward to seeing you at the FITC Holiday Jam!

If you want to bring guests to the party, they can RSVP here.
