PINC Experience | A Bubblebath for Your Brain

PINC brings curious minds together for a full day of global speakers, performances, creativity and inspiration. On Thursday, December 10, the curtain rises on the 12th annual PINC Experience — a full day of powerful talks, unexpected perspectives, performances, and ideas designed to challenge, inspire, and spark something new. This year’s lineup spans disciplines, perspectives, and plenty of the unexpected — from environmental art and community-built libraries to robotics, creativity, service, and the strange and wonderful question of what it means to be human in an increasingly alien world. PINC transpires across two events: • PINC Experience at the Sarasota Opera House - Thursday, December 10 • PINC Ideas Dinner at Rosemary District - Friday, December 11 PINC Experience Thursday, December 10, 2026 | 8am-6:30pm | Sarasota Opera House PINC takes over the Sarasota Opera House for a day of speakers, ideas and experiences that move across disciplines, places and perspectives. Throughout the day, 12 speakers from around the world take the stage to share what they know deeply, have lived personally, and are creating, challenging, building or changing in the world around them. Between talks, performances, intermezzos, food and experiences give you plenty more to soak in. • Breakfast • Lunch • Passed Apps & Champagne Reception PINC Ideas Dinner: Tickets Open Soon!
