The original School of Night was an underground and enigmatic intellectual circle that emerged in late 16th century London. Comprised of prominent figures, such as Sir Walter Raleigh, Christopher Marlowe, and Thomas Harriot, this group of thinkers and scholars gathered to engage in lively discussions, exchange radical ideas, and challenge conventional beliefs together. Known for its association with occult, heretical, and controversial topics, the School of Night fueled rumors of secret gatherings and hidden knowledge.
Reincarnated for the 21st century, the School of Night emerges from shadowed history to reshape our thinking of failure, insight, and secrecy via Fuckup Nights and Sir Walter's Raleigh's remnants. At our meetings, we engage with experimental thought leaders; brave souls willing to share their lessons learned from their worst moments, while engaging with supporters for questions and queries.
For April 28th at Neptunes, we have:
Tickets are $20/$25 day of show and include one drink ticket. Proceeds from School of Night will go to supporting Activate Good, a 501c3 nonprofit serving the Triangle region by activating volunteers to help charitable causes in our local community. Activate Good works to connect individuals, groups, and companies to volunteer needs with partnering nonprofits around the Triangle, and empower the next generation of young volunteers and community leaders through their youth programs.

Fuckup Nights is a global movement with a platform for international events where people get to share their personal failure stories. Every month different events happen worldwide where three to four speakers step into the spotlight in front of a room of strangers to share their screw-ups. We've heard it all, from stories of businesses that go bust, partnership deals that fall out, to products that must be recalled.
