The Pacific Hackers Association is excited to announce two full-day events featuring various CTFs, BBQ, drinks, and prizes.

Please Note:

  • Friday: 21+ only*,* no BBQ.
  • Saturday: All Ages, BBQ provided.

Are you planning to attend Hacker Summer Camp for the first time and don’t know what to expect? Don’t worry; we will go over Hacker Summer Camp and provide guidance on what to expect when you make it to Sin City.

Are you planning to play a CTF but don’t know where to start? Don’t worry; we will have a few CTFs to get you started. These CTFs will expose individuals thinking of playing CTFs at BSidesLV or DEFCON. No experience is required to attend, as you will learn everything you need to know about playing CTFs games. The winner of the main CTF will win a DEFCON ticket.
