Overview

Solana's global hackathons are run by Colosseum (two per year). The Frontier edition (April 6 – May 11, 2026) has concluded — see Frontier 2026 Results for the numbers, winners, and prizes. The next hackathon runs September 28 – November 2, 2026; Colosseum's Eternal Challenge also runs year-round for teams that don't want to wait. Prize structures are detailed in Essential Info.
