The North Face is organizing a series of speaking events with its six top athletes. These athletes are extreme skier and base jumper Karina Hollekim, ski mountaineer Kit DesLauriers, alpinists Conrad Anker and Jimmy Chin, and ultrarunners Diane Van Deren and Dean Karnazes. All of them take their sports to the extreme, be that climbing and skiing the highest peak on every continent, winning the Yukon Arctic Ultra or running 50 marathons in 50 states in 50 days. At the ‘Never Stop Exploring’ speaking series they share their stories with the audience on a tour through the nation in the next couple of weeks. A worthwhile evening listening to these very special athletes if you happen to live close to one of the few event locations.
The events have three different ticketing prices:
$0 – Free Admission Ticket – includes a limited quantity of available free tickets (first come first serve)
$8 - General Admission Ticket – includes Seat Reservation for the 7pm Presentation
$20 – VIP Ticket – includes the 6pm VIP Reception & Seat Reservation for the 7pm Presentation
