24 hours, real data, judged on what you found rather than what you shipped

November 7–8, 2026 at Sheridan College's Hazel McCallion Campus in Mississauga. An official Major League Hacking Member Event, organized by GDG on Campus Sheridan College.

This isn't a build-an-app hackathon. Submissions can be models, analyses, dashboards, or research. We judge on the strength of the insight and how well you communicate it. All experience levels welcome, and we run a dedicated beginner track with mentors.

Requirements

2 deadlines. Both matter.

Saturday, November 7 at 8:00 PM — Create your Devpost draft and select your tracks. Teams without a draft by this time will not be eligible for judging, even if they submit on Sunday.

Sunday, November 8 at 12:00 PM — Final submission due.

Each submission needs:

  • A public GitHub repository, or your notebook, dashboard, or written analysis
  • A 2-minute demo video (public YouTube or Google Drive link) walking through your approach and findings
  • A short write-up: the question you asked, what you did, what you found
  • All team members listed on the Devpost
  • Your chosen tracks

One submission per team. Teams of up to 4.
