CORONAVIRUS UPDATE: New in-person dates for Unrig Spotlight 2021 coming soon.
Coronavirus Update
Due to the continued coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, we are moving the date of the 2021 Unrig Spotlight – previously scheduled for May 2021 in Miami – until it is safe to come together in person again. We are optimistically and enthusiastically targeting this fall. Updated in-person dates, location, and venue details coming soon.
Registrations will be automatically transferred to the rescheduled event. If you hope or plan to attend, no further action is necessary. Refunds may be requested through the Unrig Spotlight Eventbrite page.
The coronavirus outbreak is an unprecedented and distressing development for everyone in this country and around the world. It has impacted each of us individually and the anti-corruption movement as a whole in unforeseen ways — but it will not derail the important work of this community. The democracy reform movement is strong, and rolling with the punches is in our DNA.

About Unrig
Unrig Roundtable is a free, virtual livestream series. In these expert-packed, celeb-cameo-filled, interactive events, we explore ways to support the nation and the movement throughout the coronavirus crisis, learn new tools and strategies to continue to defend our democracy, and most importantly, stay connected to one another and this important work during these unprecedented times.
Catch up on conversations from political experts and democracy reform leaders about everything from the fast-moving progress of urgently-needed vote by mail reforms, to the skills you need to protect our democracy from online digital manipulation, to the 2020 reform landscape — and so much more.
Now more than ever, it’s imperative that the movement convene to share important information, vital opportunities, and concrete skills to support the nation, and unrig our political system.

Unrig Summit comes in an exciting and fresh new format in 2021: Unrig Spotlight.
Unrig Spotlight brings together the anti-corruption movement to shine a bright light on the most vital and unmissable content of the year. Together, we’ll tackle gerrymandering, money in politics, voting reform, and more. Come hear from the unmissable leaders of the democracy reform movement.
With powerful speakers, inspiring leaders, world class entertainment and more, you’ll learn how corruption affects every issue you care about and how you can get involved to fix America’s corruption crisis.
Unrig Spotlight is a more focused program in a more intimate setting, featuring an all-day lineup on one main stage and a select few highly-curated experiences to help you connect and collaborate — and of course, Unrigged Live! An evening of world-class entertainment to celebrate our movement like never before.
Together we’ll spotlight our movement’s most innovative ideas, most promising campaigns, and most inspiring speakers. You won’t want to miss a moment, and the streamlined program means you won’t have to.
Unrig Summit is the premier right-left summit to solve America’s political crisis. It’s the brightest minds from the right and left working together to unrig our broken system.
With over one hundred inspiring speakers and trainers, current and former Members of Congress, world-class live entertainment, and attendees from all 50 states, Unrig Summit is a one-of-a-kind opportunity to connect directly with the most engaged and invested members of the democracy reform movement.
Whether you’re looking to build your skills as an activist, learn more about specific policy solutions, or to connect with others from across the United States who are ready and working to unrig the system, Unrig has something for everyone looking to get involved and fight for change.
Right now, corruption is legal in America. Lobbyists write our laws, big money controls our elections, and politicians are incentivized to care more about the people lining their pockets than those who elected them. At Unrig, organizers, activists, politicians, and everyday people from across the political spectrum gather to connect with peers, build their skills, and learn the issues… so we can win.
Since the inaugural Unrig Summit in 2018, participants have gone on to lead the largest wave of democracy reform victories in American history, including spearheading anti-gerrymandering initiatives in four states (MI, UT, CO, MO), winning ethics, transparency, and campaign finance reforms in cities and states across the country, and restoring the vote to 1.4 million citizens in Florida.
Unrigged Live! is the premier event of the Unrig experience – a high-production evening of live music, celebrity entertainment, stand-up comedy, and inspiring speakers to celebrate our movement’s victories and energize us for the future.
Previous presenters and speakers include: Jennifer Lawrence, Ed Helms, UN Deputy High Commissioner for Human Rights Kate Gilmore, Emma González of March for Our Lives, Professor and former White House Ethics Lawyer Richard Painter, Florida voting rights advocate Desmond Meade, NASA astronaut Ron Garan, Former State Senator and Our Revolution President Nina Turner, comedians Sasheer Zamata, Tig Notaro, Nikki Glaser, and Adam Yenser, and musical guests Taylor Goldsmith, Katie Pruitt, Courtney Marie Andrews, The New Respects, HoneyHoney, and the legendary Preservation All Stars.
During the program, we also present The Courage Awards, recognizing the individuals who put it all on the line to fight for democracy. Check out the full 2018 and 2019 shows to get a taste of what’s in store for Miami.
