About this Event

The UC Berkeley Grad Slam Competition is finally back in person!

Join us in cheering on Berkeley graduate students as they showcase their research in a series of three-minute talks at the 2026 Berkeley Grad Slam on Wednesday, April 8, 3:00 – 5:30 p.m at the Banatao Auditorium. Get your In-Person or Live Stream ticket today!

Tickets are free, and there will be free refreshments and snacks for those joining in-person.

Watch Berkeley semi-finalists compete to win the “Berkeley Finalist” title. As an attendee (in-peron or steaming), you will get to vote on who wins the “People Choice” award. The Berkeley first-place winner will then advance to compete against other UC finalists at the UC-wide competition.

We hope you will join us to cheer on these amazing grad students as they present their innovations born at Berkeley.

Go Bears!

This event is open to the entire UC Berkeley community and . Live stream registration is not required, but helpful as we will send reminders leading up to the event.

This event is a UC-sponsored event, and the Berkeley competition is hosted by the UC Berkeley Graduate Division.
