About the Event
Fuckup Nights is a global movement born in Mexico that now spans over 300 cities worldwide — including Houston. At each gathering, local leaders, entrepreneurs, activists, and artists take the stage to candidly share their biggest professional failure.
Instead of avoiding the topic, these sessions normalize learning from mistakes, spark honest conversations, and foster a culture of vulnerability, innovation, and community support.
Why It Matters
Failure is often hidden — but it’s essential to personal and civic growth. Fuckup Nights Houston offers a brave space for people to share setbacks, laugh together, and connect through real stories. These events build civic muscle by removing the stigma of imperfection and opening doors to deeper collaboration and empathy.
