Hello!


Is your organization interested in hosting and co-organizing the 2017 Wikimedia Hackathon? We are looking for proposals!


There is a whole lot of new information available about hackathons, if you see anything missing or that needs to be clarified let me know.

This year’s Wikimedia Hackathon 2016 will be held in Jerusalem in April. Ideally we will announce the host for 2017 before March 14th, 2016. If multiple chapters or organizations are interested, we hope to work together to figure out the the best solution.


Any organizations interested in hosting should please create a Phabricator ticket and associate it with the Developer-Relations project.

Please include as much information as possible from: proposing a hackathon


Please email me at rfarrand@wikimedia.org with any questions or concerns. I am not on the chapters@ list, so if there are any responses there please remember to keep me on CC.

Looking forward to hearing from you!
