A forum for the exchange of knowledge, skills and forward-thinking ideas at Pique.
Topique returns this fall with panels, workshops, and artist talks on September 27, 2025. Building on the Pique ethos of experimentation and inclusivity, Topique invites curious festival-goers to step into the conversation.
This fall’s program features five sessions led by international and Canadian speakers, covering topics that push the cultural sector forward, including:
-
The future of radio
-
Organizing for artist and worker rights
-
Sonic ecologies and hyperreality
-
Career-building in the club
- DJ skill-building for Black youth
Admission to all Topique sessions is free with a Pique pass, or pay-what-you-can at the door. Each session is subject to the capacity of the venue it is held in, and a pass does not guarantee admission or a seat in all sessions. Please plan to arrive early to ensure admission.
No pre-registration required, except for the Pass the Vibes workshop and the Pique-Nique mentorship mixer.
