Raspberry Jam Big Birthday Event 2019 (REGISTER VIA TI.TO)
Details
We are so excited to joining other Raspberry Jam Big Birthday Weekend events around the world.
Come join us to celebrate Raspberry Pi's 7th Birthday!
This jam (hosted by TOG Hackerspace) is about bringing your own equipment and work through projects, and we want to emphasise that it is not a workshop, it's an event where you feel free to ask questions and for help as well as share your own project and ideas to one another.
This event is open to all levels.

FAQ
Q. Is this event for me?
Whether you are new to Raspberry Pi or have an ongoing project, this is the event for you. For those new to this, you can check out what the hobbyists are working on, like a live demo.
And you will be at TOG Hackerspace who runs regular microcontroller nights, so you can check out the space and talk to their members, some of whom will be helping out on the day if you have questions.
PLEASE NOTE: This is NOT a workshop. It's all self-driven, self-learning day of fun and experimentation, it's ok to FAIL. :-)
Q. Why is this an 18+ event?
The organisers are not Garda vetted or taken any child protection courses. By law we are required to have both. Because we are all volunteers and event is held in different venues, we decided it would be best to focus on providing this event for adults only.
Q. Do you have a Code of Conduct?
Yes; please find it here: https://dublin-pi-jam.github.io/
Q. Do I need to bring anything?
All participants bring their own equipment (laptop, Pis, electronics, and so on).
Coding Grace has 4 Pi-Tops with its kits and various electronic components for anyone who's new to Raspberry Pi and want to play around with it. There will be some projects from Raspberry Pi printed out so people can go through them on their own time.
You order your own electronics from the following online stores:
