Diverse, Thought-provoking, and Timely Ideas Worth Spreading

Back for our 7th year, the TEDxOshkosh team is thrilled to bring another great group of speakers to the stage at The Grand Oshkosh on November 4. Including the 2023 speakers, TEDxOshkosh will have brought Oshkosh and the world just less than 100 amazing ideas, delivered by an equally amazing group of people with a passion to spread their idea.

Keep track of the speaker announcements every Tuesday and Friday as they appear on our Speakers & Talks page, and in the meantime, start gathering friends to attend Saturday, November 4. It's going to be another great year.

Live Auditions April 12, 2023

Once again, TEDxOshkosh will hold in-person auditions for speaker candidates with an Idea Worth Spreading. 25 pre-registered candidates will give their best 4 minutes before the TEDxOshkosh team. Those speaker candidates will be considered among as many as 300 others for between twelve and fifteen speaker slots at TEDxOshkosh 2023, to be held on November 4.

IMPORTANT: All audition slots for April 12, are filled by pre-registrants. No walk-in audition opportunities are available.

Public Welcome

The public is welcome and encouraged to attend and watch, starting at 5:30pm. There is no charge to attend. A cash bar will be available. We hope to see you at The Waters Oshkosh, 1393 Washington Avenue, Oshkosh.

TEDxOshkosh Returns for a 7th Year Sat., Nov. 4, 2023

Mark your calendar! Tell friends!

We've just received our 2023 license from TED (did you know that every TEDx event worldwide must apply for a license each year?), and we're excited to return to the historic stage at The Grand Oshkosh with another diverse collection of speakers and their Ideas Worth Spreading.

If you've attended before, you know what it'll be like. If you've not yet attended, we encourage you to watch some (or all!) of the 84 talks of the previous years' speakers. Either way, we're confident you'll want to join us for another great day for your brain to play.

Doorway to Possible

We're happy to share that photos of all 2022 speakers and other activities at November 19th's TEDxOshkosh are now online. Take a moment to remember the day, or learn about it if you couldn't be there.
