WHY2025

The final episode of the WHYcast! See you in 2029 🥳 We loved making this, enjoyed the ride and also are happy this is the last one 😅 watch: youtu.be/pMzdwcapHNQ Listen: whycast.podcast.audi...

We've received some reports about the Special WHY Mugs not reaching expected quality. We are working on the issue and will update you on this page wiki.why2025.org/Tea... If you bought 1 or more mugs, please add your experience, so the teams involved will have a clearer picture of what is happening.

We hoped for mission "Plausible Deniability" to be done today, but a few more hours are required tomorrow to make everything spotless. Saturday 16th we'll start at 10:00 in the morning. If you're in the area, your help would be very much appreciated!

After seeing the Manitous moving to fresh grounds, the gators followed suit and managed to hitch a ride to new adventures and unknown territories, leaving Geestmerambacht behind in a cloud of dust. The next chapter in their journey and ours, in a world that will never be the same, after #WHY2025

Having roamed the fields at #WHY2025, a herd of wild Manitous try to take a rest while shielding their precious offspring from the harsh reality of being forced to migrate the next feeding ground in only a matter of days. Their lowered forks ready to defend or attack at any moment #teardown

WHY2025 was awesome, clean-up is in the final stages. Now LUNCHTIME! Here we see, in the wild, one of the awesome tear-down Angels. They are foraging after another morning of hard work on the fields of WHY2025. This species of hackers tends to leave fields cleaner than when they first arrive #angel

Last day of teardown today! With the promise of food (and perhaps another exclusive afterparty?) If you can spare your Friday to help clean up the last loose ends at Geestmerambacht, we can achieve "Plausible Deniability". It would be like we were never been there 😀 Many hands make light work! 💪

The party is over, but the field is not yet empty Got some spare time on Friday? Help out with the last bits of cleanup in Geestmerambacht to spread the load over as many volunteers as possible and there will be food! Continue the patat/friet-discussion on the field (yes, this might be a hint 😉)

Today and tomorrow (Thursday/Friday) there is still a lot of tear-down in progress. If you are in the area, any help would be appreciated. All the tasks (both light and heavy) are handled from heaven. Someone dropped off ice cream/popsicle for all volunteers ❤️

HELP US :) We have two more days of tear down to go, and a lot of the hard workers here have been here for 14 days. Fences have to be taken down, volunteers have to get food and water in them, trash has to be removed from the field. If you have some spare time today or tomorrow, please help us!

An awesome camp with gorgeous deco doesn't mean you are free to take it. After all these days of being excellent to eachother, it seems some people have forgotten about this rule #1 All the love for the hard working volunteers ❤️ Stay hydrated!

After a good night of sleep, or a night of fun and tinkering with friends, it is the dawn of the last day of WHY2025. The programme is still full of awesome things! Grab your last minute talks at why2025.org/Programme or check the first recordings available at media.ccc.de/c/WHY20...

Shuttle service from WHY2025 to Alkmaar train station has been extended, starting tomorrow morning at 8:00 already, to cater to early travelers. 🚕🚕🚕 Check all the details at wiki.why2025.org/Shu...

There will be a workshop on how to build a flame thrower. Please keep in mind that testing these is only permitted by trained professionals, in the designated area around D42D, nowhere else! If you want to watch this spectacular event live, head over this evening (monday), but keep your distance!

Hungry hackers at WHY2025 should really check out the awesome food that Team:FoodBar has arranged for. From bitterballen to meals from all over the world! Check out the foodcourt and see you at the bar Don't forget to hydrate!

Schedule news! Day one of WHY2025 was treated to a power outage, the schedule was cancelled for the evening. Today, Saturday, regular programming will resume in the morning. At 12:00 the opening will take place in Andromeda. Afternoon schedule TBD. Refresh program.why2025.org/ for updates!

Due to the power outage on Friday afternoon, we've had to reschedule the program to tomorrow morning. Don't panic! In the meantime, the villages, bars, and party area are all open for everyone to enjoy. Let's make the most of this unexpected free time! 🎉

WHY2025 is starting, it is a beautiful day! Because of the power outage on the field at WHY2025, the program will be delayed until tomorrow. Please keep hydrated, have fun and we'll hack and improvise our way through this together! #why2025 #adaptimproviseovercome

If you get 3750 people together for the best outdoor hacker camp of 2025 in The Netherlands, a power outage in the general area is not what we want. Sending love to the people at Liander who are working on fixing our power
