Join PeachHacks!

A weekend where students team up to build an app, website, game, or other project from scratch. At PeachHacks you get a full weekend to build, with workshops, mentors, and food along the way. No malicious hacking involved.

PeachHacks is open to current university students from any school and any major. If you don’t attend Georgia State, you need to be at least 18.

No. It’s beginner friendly, with workshops and mentors throughout the weekend.

Yes. Admission, meals, and snacks are free for every accepted hacker. We’ll also have swag and prizes.

PeachHacks is planned for February 5–7, 2027, in person at Georgia State University in Atlanta. The building and exact times will be posted here once they are confirmed.

Transit and parking details are to be announced with the building.

Registration isn’t open yet. Pre-register and we’ll email you the moment it opens.

After you register we review applications and send acceptance emails together, so you may not hear back right away. Space is limited; if we fill up, we’ll open a waitlist. If you’re accepted, your email includes a ticket with a QR code: bring it on your phone to check in.

Once you’re accepted, you can sign in at platform.peachhacks.com with the email you applied with, using a password or your Google account. It has your ticket, the other accepted hackers and who’s looking for a team, team sign-up, and a one-click way into our Discord with the Hacker role.

PeachHacks is for current students, so we ask for the email address your school gave you and send a link there to confirm it. We’ll use your personal email for everything else.

Teams are 1 to 4 people. If you don’t have a team, come anyway: there’s a team-building activity right after the opening ceremony.

Your laptop, charger, headphones, and your ticket (the QR code from your acceptance email). If you’re staying overnight, bring a pillow or blanket, and deodorant.

No, but decide before 11:00 PM. The building locks at 11:00 PM, and after that nobody can come in or leave until it reopens in the morning. You’re welcome to stay inside overnight.

Meals and snacks are provided all weekend. Tell us about any dietary restrictions when you register so we can order for you.

Building starts after the opening ceremony. You can brainstorm beforehand, but you can’t bring a previous project. Frameworks and AI tools are fine: credit them in your README and make clear what you built yourself.

As many as you want.

Workshops, activities to take a break and meet other hackers, and time with our sponsors. The full schedule will be posted closer to the event.

Email hello@peachhacks.com or message an organizer in Discord and tell us what you need. Building accessibility details will be posted with the venue information.

We’re still working out whether hardware will be available to borrow, and we’ll update this answer when we know. You’re welcome to bring your own.

No, we aren’t able to offer travel reimbursements.

Yes. Everyone at PeachHacks agrees to the MLH Code of Conduct when they register.

Sponsors can reach us through the sponsor form. Sign-ups for mentors, judges, and volunteers aren’t open yet; email hello@peachhacks.com and we’ll reach out when they are.

Ask in our Discord or email hello@peachhacks.com.
