ETHGlobal Cannes 2026 lands on the French Riviera April 3–5, gathering the Ethereum ecosystem’s most ambitious developers and builders at Le Palais des Festivals et des Congrès de Cannes for 36 hours of creation under pressure.
Teams come in with ideas and leave with projects — backed by a full stack of web3 resources including mentors, protocol partners, and software tools designed to compress months of work into a single intense weekend. With $150,000 in prizes on the table, the stakes are real, and so is the energy.
Attendance is completely free, including meals. The one requirement is a small refundable cryptocurrency stake to confirm a spot — returned in full to every hacker who participates and submits a project by the close of the event, even a partial one. It’s a system built to keep the floor full of people who actually want to build.
Sleep is optional. Shipping something new is not.
