**What is an AWS GameDay?**
Join us for the AWS GameDay, a gamified simulation exercise in which you will learn AWS concepts and best practices under light competition. Your goals are to become more comfortable with AWS and have fun in a live, risk-free environment.

**Format**
This event will be 100% hands-on and you will be working extensively in the AWS Console. It is not a workshop, there are no step-by-step instructions. Be prepared to decide your own path forward with ambiguous directions. You may get frustrated and that is alright! Support staff will be available to assist you. Please come with an open mind to try new things. Our event is team-based, so you should arrive well-rested to communicate effectively, divide and conquer, and support your teammates.
