🔥 About this Event

Hacker Summer Camp kicks off right here in Brooklyn with Summercon 2026—a single-track, deeply technical, and extremely social hacker conference that’s been running since 1987.

What makes it special?

• Top-tier security talks in a cozy, curated venue.
• Legendary afterparties and in-person socializing.
• A crowd that includes hackers, researchers, and decision-makers.

🗣 Programming Highlights

• All speaker presentations take place at Littlefield.

🧼 A Word About COVID (and Being Decent Humans)

We are going to have PTSD about COVID for a long time. As a result, some of our community still take precautions seriously—and we respect that.

So, while NYC does not require masks or proof of vaccination, we encourage the following:

• Stay up to date on your COVID-19 and flu vaccines.
• Feel free to wear a high-quality mask (KN95, KF94, etc.).
• Stay home if you’re sick—our refund policy’s got your back.
• Wash your hands. Seriously.
• Be kind, be cool, and respect each other’s boundaries.

🏆 What Else?

As always, Summercon means:

• Great presentations
• Hacker hijinks of all kinds
• Strong drinks and stronger opinions
• And the reveal of this year’s Pwnie Award nominees

All attendees agree to follow the Summercon Code of Conduct.
