Contact Email: john@draftparty.net
Post Content: Draft Party is a people engagement and connection company. Created during the pandemic as a means to stay connected to friends and family, Draft Party is an inclusive trivia-like (but better) game. It’s trivia for people that hate trivia, and also those that love it! Officially launched in 2022 by a couple teachers and a software developer, Draft Party now has 800 daily users, and has partnered with the City of Calgary to keep crowds entertained during their Canada Day Celebrations.
We are a dynamic, non-traditional, scrappy company. We believe that, with the right people, Draft Party can really blow up, becoming a go-to for bringing people together, whether that be as part of a large organization, or for friends and family.
