Cyprus Hackathon of the Year 2026
An annual celebration of the best public hackathon held in Cyprus — online or offline. Free to enter, judged in the open.
What it is
Cyprus has a growing hackathon scene — and the people who build these events deserve recognition. Each year hackathon.cy names the Cyprus Hackathon of the Year: the public hackathon that best brought the community together. Our way of putting the local scene — and its organisers — on the map.
