About This Event

HarbourHack is an in-person hackathon in Sydney for student and early-career builders, founders, mentors and tech enthusiasts. Bring an idea or join as a solo builder to take a concept through building, customer feedback and pitching.

How it works

  • Kick off with a mixer, then build from 23–25 October.
  • Use 26–28 October to ship, find customers, sell and gather feedback.
  • Strongest teams progress to the finals on Friday 30 October, pitching live to judges and track sponsors.
  • Three main tracks will be released in the week before launch.

Team requirements

  • Solo builders and founders are welcome.
  • Teams can have up to five people; teams of three to four are recommended.
  • If you already have a team, every member must register for this event.

Partners

Lead track partners include Build Australia and Fastlane. Builder experience partners include AdaL and n8n, alongside community partners Build Club, MLAI, Sip & Scale, UTS TechSoc and UNSW NoCode Society.
