The West Coast Creative Society™ is here to bring together Vancouver’s Advertising & Design industry, without all the awkward small talk. We promise.

When we set-out to create the Coasties, we knew we wanted to avoid being one of those stuffy award shows with a sit down dinner so we’re aiming to keep things light.

We’ll keep the awards portion of the evening short so you can get back to the real reason were all here: to hang out with each other. The event will include two 45 minute theatre-seated segments hosted by an emcee.

Each winner’s work will be show on-screen, and they’ll be offered the opportunity to thank anyone involved in a short speech if they choose to but it is not required.

We’ll have an opening reception, intermission and after-party all at the Hollywood Theatre, with cash bar and hors d'oeuvres served throughout the evening.

OUR INITIATIVES

A (sort-of) monthly no-nonsense networking event hosted by agencies and production partners. It’s a great chance for creatives to be a little less introverted and chat with some like minded individuals.

Creative Pulse

Our friends at Creative Pulse YVR put on tons of great speaker events for Vancouver creatives. We highly suggest you check out one of their events.
