Pre-Conference Events
Rule 62 hosts pre-conference events throughout the year.
Here's how we're keeping the fun (and fundraising) going.
Halloween Bingo
Saturday, October 31, 2026
11:00 a.m.–1:00 p.m.
Come celebrate Halloween with an afternoon of bingo, laughter, fellowship, and sober fun!
This sober event is for the 2SLGBTQ2+ community and allies, bringing people together for a festive, welcoming, and substance-free way to spend Halloween. Whether you’re a bingo fanatic or just coming for the company, we’d love to have you join us. Costumes and Halloween spirit are encouraged!
Come for the bingo, stay for the fellowship, and enjoy Halloween with community. 🎃🏳️🌈
All proceeds will support the 2nd Annual Rule 62, Vancouver's annual 2SLGBTQ+ Conference.
If you have any questions regarding this or any Rule 62 event,
please don't hesitate to contact us.
What is Rule 62?
Rule 62 is Vancouver’s home for fun in recovery — a new conference built on
joy, connection, and the spirit of “we are not a glum lot.”
Our purpose is simple: create, foster, and grow an annual LGBTQ2S+ international gathering where people from all over the world can experience laughter, fellowship, and solutions-based sobriety together.
Everyone is invited.
We also honour the legacy of Celebrate Sobriety, our previous Conference.
The tireless service of past committees laid the foundation
for everything we are building today.
Thank you.
The 2025 AA World Conference ultimately inspired Rule 62.
Different names — same heart, same purpose. The World Conference highlighted
what’s possible: recovery, community, and pure, unapologetic fun.
Welcome to Rule 62.
Let’s keep growing this — together.
