Baltimore’s annual soiree for the tech crowd is headed to a different part of town this year. Tech Night, formerly a $180-a-head event held at the Baltimore Convention Center for 20 years, will take place Thursday night on downtown’s west side at Lexington Market this year.
The new location and lower ticket prices — $60 until midnight Wednesday — are intended to make Tech Night more accessible and fit with a “uniquely Baltimore” theme, said Jason Hardebeck, executive director of the Greater Baltimore Technology Council (gb.tc), which hosts the event. The ticket price includes Maryland-made beer and wine and food from vendors based in Lexington Market. Select tech companies will give demonstrations in a designated startup arena.
