2026 SAINTCON Call for Experience

Welcome to the Arena (or the Lab, or the Stage) In 2026, we’re breaking down the silos. Communities, Contests, and Events are joining forces under the Experience department to give SAINTCON attendees the best SAINTCON yet. We want your most ambitious ideas. We want the stuff that makes people skip sleep, skip sessions, and maybe even skip their own birthdays. But before we get to what and how, let’s explain the difference between Communities, Contests, and Events. Where do you fit? Communities: You’re building a persistent, hands-on home base. It’s about hands-on education, welcoming everyone from the curious beginner to the seasoned pro. If you're providing a space to mentor, explore, and build all week long, you’re a Community. Contests: This is for the ultimate test of proficiency. There’s a podium, a leaderboard, and prizes. You don’t win by being lucky; you win by proving your skill with a measurable score. Events: This is for the time-bounded, interactive gatherings. Whether it’s a social mixer, a job fair, or a 90-minute "hack-off," an Event brings people together to participate at a specific time and place.
