'''Hackers On Planet Earth''' (HOPE) is an annual event that happens each summer in New York City. 

'''HOPE 26''' will be a '''THREE DAY EVENT''', spanning from '''Friday, August 14th through Sunday, August 16th, 2026'''. 
The event is live and in-person, at the [https://www.hope.net/venue/ New Yorker Hotel] in Manhattan, New York City'''.

HOPE 26 will include scheduled talks, panels, workshops, keynotes, geeky vendors, food, art, films, concerts, performances, and much more!

As with all HOPE conferences, you can watch all of the talks for free online, live-streamed. They will also all be recorded and available online after the conference!



== Tickets for HOPE 26 ==

'''NOTE: HOPE 26 is SOLD OUT, and there will be NO TICKETS AVAILABLE AT THE DOOR.'''

== Virtual Attendance ==
You can also attend this summer's HOPE 26 virtually! 
You can buy your '''Virtual Attendee ticket''' [https://store.2600.com/products/tickets-to-hope-26-virtual-attendee here]. 
All in-person attendees also get access to the full virtual program. This includes the online chat, and the ability to watch livestreams of all talks.

== HOPE Scholarship Program ==
Even though the ticket prices for HOPE 26 are as low as possible, some people -- including many students -- say they can't afford the price. Other people have offered to donate a ticket for those who can't afford to buy one. 
The '''HOPE Scholarship Program''' is a way that students and others who can't afford HOPE admission can attend for FREE thanks to the generosity of HOPE supporters. Here's how it works: 
       * If you want to donate an admission to HOPE 26, please go to [https://www.hope.net/scholarships/ our Scholarship page] and fill out the form. 
       * If you want to apply for a scholarship for HOPE 26, please go to [https://www.hope.net/scholarships/ our Scholarship page] and fill out the form. 
Students should send an email message from their school email address (if possible). Mention your current academic status (school, year, and program) and write 50-200 words about why you are interested in attending HOPE 26. Non-students should send an email message briefly describing your situation and what benefits you anticipate from attending HOPE 26.
