Hack&Roll 2026 πŸ‘Ύ

Posted on by NUS Hackers

Thank you all for coming down to Hack&Roll 2026! πŸŽ‰

It was an absolute blast for us to organise Singapore’s largest student-run hackathon once again! When we plan this event every January, our goal is always to celebrate true hacker culture and create an environment where you can have the freedom to simply build for fun.

This year, we introduced something special to the Hack&Roll pacakge, our first ever custom PCB badge! Seeing you personalize, color, and hack these hardware badges throughout the weekend perfectly captured the maker spirit that we love so much.

A massive shoutout to our incredible sponsors and partners! Thanks to their generous support, we were able to distribute over 8,550 pieces of swag to the community.

Here is a look at the madness of H&R 2026, by the numbers πŸ“ˆ

  • We hosted an incredible 809 participants across 297 teams!
  • 138 judges came down to interact with your projects
  • We gave away 8,550 pieces of swag
  • To keep the energy up for 24 hours of fun & hacking, we demolished 130 pizzas and 3,264 drinks consumed
  • For the side quests, there were 39 ducks found and 5 Typeracer games played, featuring a crazy record of 156 WPM!
  • All of this was made possible by our dedicated crew of 59 organisers and 1 happy duck
