In today's world, tech is king and has revolutionised the way our music and creative industries work.

From apps to websites to platforms it can be confusing to understand the difference between all of them, or to understand what is going on behind the screen. Join us for a day of 'hacking' where we'll be building our own apps and getting closer to technology. Participants will be formed into small groups to design and create innovative apps or games around the theme of all day conferences and live music events. 

We'll provide the food, technology and wifi - you bring yourself and some ideas and come and enjoy this fun-filled day.

In particular we would like 18-30 year-old's that have never had any experience in hacking to get involved. 

Please note that filming and photography will be occurring during the event. Final projects/ideas will be posted to our ChallengePost page and on our website. If you have any concerns please get in touch.
