HackThePromise Festival for Digitality, Art, and Society

• Festival: Friday, October 3 – Sunday, October 5, 2025
• Location: Padelhalle Klybeck Basel

Hacking Systems, Hacking Futures!

This year, the three-day event will focus on hacking as a socio-technical practice – breaking open, rewiring, testing futures. Hacking not only for computer specialists, but also as a mindset for changing social structures.

🚀 Hacking is imagination
🚀 Hacking is resistance
🚀 Hacking is world-building

The Padelhalle Klybeck will be transformed into a large festival venue one last time before demolition:
20 talks/panels, 10 performances, 20 installations, 10 workshops, DJs, movies, and more!
