Hack Night is Back — February 24th at Subculture Coffee
Build what you want. Meet cool people. No lectures. No gatekeeping.
Hack Night is a free, monthly gathering for builders, designers, and curious people. Tuesday, February 24th, 6–9 PM at Subculture Coffee in Delray Beach. All levels welcome. Bring a laptop and show up ready to make something.
We're bringing it back.
Hack Night was something we ran through PostScarcity AI — informal sessions at Subculture Coffee where people would show up, open their laptops, and build things together. No syllabus. No speaker lineup. No pressure to impress anyone. Just people who wanted to make something, sitting in a good coffee shop, doing exactly that.
This time, we're doing it under The Vibe Jam — and we're adding something the old sessions didn't have: a full-on vibe coding energy. If you've been watching what AI can do for builders right now, this is the room where you come to actually do it.
What Is Hack Night?
It's simple. You show up. You open your laptop. You build what you want to build.
Maybe you've been sitting on an app idea for six months. Maybe you want to try vibe coding for the first time and need someone nearby who can help you get unstuck. Maybe you just want to work on your own project in a room full of people who get it.
The vibe: show up, plug in, make something. Leave with more than you came with.
Come and go as you please. Stay for one hour or all three. The bar is just showing up.
No Gatekeeping. Actually.
That's not just a tagline. It's the whole philosophy.
Tech events have a way of sorting people. The speaker at the front who clearly knows more than everyone. The breakout group of people already friends with each other who don't make space. The unspoken rule that you're supposed to have an impressive answer when someone asks what you're working on.
Hack Night doesn't work like that.
Never written code? Perfect. Been building for years? Also perfect. Everyone's learning something here.
Never written a line of code? That's fine — vibe coding means you describe what you want and let AI handle the technical parts. We'll help you get started. No judgment, no prerequisites.
Been building for years and want to work in a focused room? Perfect. Bring your project and go deep.
Where and When
Tuesday, February 24th 6:00 PM – 9:00 PM Subculture Coffee, Delray Beach, FL
Subculture is the right spot for this. Good coffee, actual space to spread out, and a vibe that doesn't feel like a WeWork. We've done sessions here before and it works.
If you've seen the YouTube short from our previous session — that's the energy. A little scrappy, a lot of real.
What to Bring
- A laptop (required)
- An idea (optional — we'll help you find one)
- A question you've been afraid to ask
That's it. Everything else is just showing up.
We'd Love to See You There
If you've been curious about vibe coding, AI tools, or just want to be around people building things in South Florida — this is the event. It's free, it's open, and it happens every month.
Or just show up. Either works.
February 24th • 6-9 PM • Subculture Coffee, Delray Beach
