About the challenge
Synthesis Hacks is a free, in-person 12-hour hackathon for high schoolers in the Bay Area. It runs Saturday, May 23, 2026, at Google Humboldt in Sunnyvale, CA.
Beginners are welcome. A lot of attendees will be writing their first real code on Saturday, and mentors are around the whole day to help when you get stuck.
Show up alone or with friends. We run a team-matching session right after check-in for anyone arriving solo. Teams are 2 to 4 people. Build whatever you want: an app, a website, a game, a hardware hack. You have until 5 PM to submit.
Sponsors cover food, prizes, drinks, snacks, and WiFi. You bring a laptop, a charger, and a school ID for check-in.
Who it's for
High school students, grades 9 through 12. No prior experience needed.
