01 / The idea

A festival, not a conference

Not another
hackathon.

SIGNAL/27 is a three-day gathering for people who make things with computers — and people who make things with everything else. Expect half-finished demos, unreasonably strong coffee, and the particular joy of watching an idea survive its first night.

Built by students, for students. Open to every campus, every major, every skill level. If you have never shipped anything before, come anyway. That is sort of the point.

01

Build

48 hours, one brief, no hand-holding. Teams of up to four turn a half-formed idea into something strangers can poke at.

Hackathon
02

Break

Talks and workshops from people who've shipped real things — and broken real things. Bring questions, leave with opinions.

Stage + Labs
03

Belong

A yard full of food stalls, loud music and people who get it. The best part of any conference is the hallway. Ours is outside.

The Yard

02 / The shape of it

Three days, loosely planned

  1. Day 0119 Mar

    Arrive & align

    Check-in, team matching, the opening keynote and the first sprint brief. Doors at 09:00 sharp.

  2. Day 0220 Mar

    Build & break

    Workshops by day, hacking by night. Mentors on the floor until 2am, coffee until later.

  3. Day 0321 Mar

    Ship & celebrate

    Demos, judging, awards, and a closing party you will still be talking about next semester.

03 / Stay tuned

drops soon.

Tickets, speakers and the full programme land in one loud email. Be on the list before everyone else is.
