Talent Show

Friday, Nov 14 | 8:00 PM - 10:00 PM

Nothing helps us connect, learn, & thrive like sharing our gifts and talents with each other—and there is no better place to do that than the ADHD2025 Talent Show. 

The Talent Show is our long-running Friday night tradition, a perfect time to relax a little and refresh yourself before Saturday’s sessions. It’s a great place to meet folks and make even more connections, maybe over a favorite song, poem, or performance. 

The Talent Show is a showcase for the unusual, entertaining, and amazing talents of attendees and speakers in a fun, therapeutic, bare-your-soul way. Some of your favorites will be returning, and some never-before-seen talents will take the stage. 

 

Want to showcase your talent?
