HOPE 26

Conference program for HOPE 2026

The 17th Hackers On Planet Earth (HOPE) conference will be held from August 14-16, 2026 at the New Yorker Hotel in Midtown Manhattan.

The HOPE conferences are known for their creativity and diversity, not to mention a whole lot of hacker fun. We’ve been at this for over three decades now – the first HOPE conference was in 1994.

In 2025, for the first time ever, HOPE became an annual event. Our first three conferences were separated by three years and every conference after that was biennial, or once every two years. After doing this 15 times, we decided we were finally ready to become a yearly tradition.

There are so many projects, talks, workshops, presentations, villages, etc. that we can coordinate at HOPE 26 and we hope you will participate in as many ways as possible. We’ll be needing lots of volunteers to pull this off again and we’re really limited only by our imaginations.
