Upcoming Events, Courses, and Talks

Join mHUB for a family-friendly Build & Bash robot competition! 

Whether you're an amateur, a first-time builder, or an expert just looking to have fun and show how it's done, this event is for you. All attendees will have the opportunity to build DIY robots with technical guidance and take part in obstacles and a bracketed battle later in the day.

Want a leg up? Purchase a "kit" at check-out to ensure you have all the materials you need to dominate.

Feeling confident in your creation? Enter the bracket competition onsite and wrap up the day with epic head-to-head battles starting at 3PM.

*Kids 5-years old and under do not need a ticket

BUILDING

An open building and competition session will be held from 1PM – 4PM. All ticketholders have access to the designated building area, materials, and complimentary food and beverage. Ready-made kits with basic components and instructions are also available to purchase for those needing additional guidance.

Guidelines and rules will be distributed ahead of the event. No pre-made robots allowed!

COMPETITION

From 3PM – 4PM there will be a bracket competition for those who register onsite to participate. The tournament will commence around 4PM and continue until only one robot is left standing! The winning robot and team will take home the trophy, mHUB swag, and other prizes.
