Overview
Hyphen-Hacks is a free hackathon for high school students from around the Bay Area, run by students and historically hosted at Lick-Wilmerding High School in San Francisco. It is listed as part of Hack Club's network of student-led hackathons and coding clubs. The event has run in various formats across years: past editions include an overnight 24-hour hackathon on October 12-13, 2019, and an overnight event on September 27-28, 2025 (3:45 PM to 6:00 AM). The upcoming 2026 edition is a single-day, in-person event scheduled for October 10, 2026, from 9:00 AM to 11:00 PM in San Francisco, California. The official site (hyphen-hacks.com) is a JavaScript-rendered single-page application whose theme, prize, sponsor, and submission details could not be extracted via automated fetch at research time; organizers can be reached at team@hyphen-hacks.com.
