Yes! You can participate in the hackathon but we would need written consent from your parent/guardian and you wouldn’t be allowed to leave the venue during the hackathon.

Since Hack This Fall 2024 is a community-driven hackathon, unfortunately we will not be able to support you with travel.

On both nights (9th Feb & 10th Feb) we will have a supervised sleeping space for hackers to rest and sleep at the venue. We recommend bringing your own blanket if you need one.

We want to make sure that all women hackers feel comfortable and safe at the hackathon. We have arranged a separate sleeping area for girls, clean washrooms, personal hygiene and sanitary kits, etc.

You are expected to arrive at the hackathon venue by 2 PM IST on Friday, 9 Feb. The estimated departure time from the venue is 7 PM IST on Sunday, 11th Feb. Book your return travel tickets accordingly to ensure you don't miss the Closing Ceremony.

To learn more about the venue, arrival & departure, and how to reach there, you can check out our Venue Guide here.

The answer is No. Arrangements like sleeping area, food, etc., are only for the attendees. We recommend you to find a stay option for them near the venue. They can drop you at the hackathon venue on 9th Feb and can pick you on 11th Feb but can't stay at venue during the hackathon as we do not have any provision for them.

No. You can only start working on the projects once hacking begins on 9 Feb after the opening ceremony. Any project with an earlier commit history will be disqualified.

However, you can learn the basic tools and technologies you might need before the hackathon.

We want to ensure a positive experience for all participants. We will be following MLH’s Code of Conduct, we encourage you to read it.
