Event Schedule

The lineup keeps growing! We're still adding panelists, special guests and sessions right up to the Faire, so check back for the latest — there will be even more to see than what's listed here today.

Plan your weekend around the panel talks, demos and other scheduled activities below. Most exhibits and hands-on activities run continuously all weekend, so you can catch those in between.

Robot Ruckus qualifying rounds are all day Saturday, and then eliminations, grudge matches and rumbles are throughout the day on Sunday.

The event program has a printable map, schedule and more — it’s usually posted about a week before the event.

Field Trip Day on November 6 is only for pre-registered school groups and homeschool families.
