kickoff(): hack, demo, play FC27 at Fulham’s Craven Cottage

About

We’re calling kickoff() at Craven Cottage.

ClickHouse is Fulham’s front-of-shirt sponsor, so we’re taking over the stadium for an afternoon of building for matchday. Then tech companies settle it in the FC 27 Showdown.

🛠️ The hackBuild something that makes matchday better with tech: fan experiences, live match stats, ticketing, commentary, streaming, real-time anything. Each of our tech partners is setting its own challenge, pairing its tech with ClickHouse, and each challenge comes with its own prize. Engineers from ClickHouse and the partners will be on hand all afternoon to mentor and build alongside you.

Come solo or bring a team. All levels are welcome, and you don’t need to know ClickHouse already.

🎮 The FC 27 ShowdownOnce demos are done, 8 tech companies go head to head in a 1v1 EA Sports FC 27 knockout. Grab some food, pick a side and get loud.

🏆 JudgingClickHouse and partner judges will score demos on matchday relevance, use of the tech, whether it actually works (a live demo beats slides), and creativity.
