Nerd Nite is an international organization and is now held in almost seventy major cities across the globe. Originating in Boston, the Lawrence chapter can trace its roots to some of the founding members from Boston to NYC to Austin, TX, and finally to Lawrence, KS. The three people who established the Lawrence chapter were Nick Ray, Dave Trimbach, and Travis Weller.
