Hacky Racers: Hackathon
Join CoCreate+ for the kick-off day for Hacky Racers, a high-energy, hands-on hackathon that fuses puppetry, animatronics, robotics and racing!
Over a series of creative workshops and online sessions, young innovators aged 12–18 will design, code and create a unique racing machine.
Participants will build and program a semi-autonomous RC rover — bringing imagination to life through movement, mechanics, and performance.
The project combines STEM, art, and storytelling in a way that’s as fun as it is educational. Whether you’re into coding, 3D printing, crafting, or creative design, there’s a place for you on the Hacky Racers starting grid!
Hacky Racers is a project by CoCreate+ commissioned by Culture Within Newham, with support from University of the Arts London (UAL) and London Design & Engineering UTC.
