The Cupertino's Youth Activity Board together with the Cupertino Recreation Department is hosting <hack> Cupertino, a 13-hour overnight hackathon designed to solve a (secret) problem presented during our Opening Ceremony. We originally created this hackathon as a way for teens to destress, socialize, and flex their coding skills, and we're excited to bring it back to you in 2026! Please note that this event is a lock-in, if you leave the premises at any point in the evening you will not be allowed back in.
