Wizard Hackathon
🧙♂️ Wizard Hackathon
Enter the forge. Build your spell. Ship the demo.
Wizard Hackathon is a magical one-day build sprint where founders, engineers, designers, and creators come together to turn raw ideas into working prototypes.
This is not a normal hackathon. This is a room full of modern mages crafting new spells with code, AI, design, cloud infra, agents, search, games, and imagination. Over one intense day, teams will gather, form parties, choose tracks, build products, and demo creations that feel useful, surprising, and alive.
Whether you are building your first MVP, testing a wild product idea, experimenting with AI agents, or joining forces with other builders, Wizard Hackathon is designed to help you move from:
idea → prototype → demo → magic 🪄
🧭 The Quest
Your mission is simple:
Form a party. Choose a track. Build a spell. Ship the demo.
Every team will create a product, tool, game, agent, or experience inspired by one of the event tracks. The best projects will combine creativity, technical execution, product thinking, and a strong final demo.
Come with an idea, a skill, or just curiosity.
Leave with a spell worth showing.
