				<p class="big-intro">Now in its forth year, the Hackference Hackathon portion is being held in the perfect <a href="https://birmingham.impacthub.net/">Impact Hub Birmingham</a> for the second year running. The hackathon is one of the biggest public hackathons in the United Kingdom - you don't have to be a student, or even a coder to come along and get involved! We will have plenty of API's and technology for you to put your skills to, for the chance to win some amazing prizes, or even just impress your peers!</p>
				<p class="big-intro">We'll make sure you are fed well with proper food like making sure you'll have a roast dinner on Sunday, and a great meal to set you up for an all night coding session if you want to, we'll make sure you have enough drinks and snacks to keep you going and we'll give you the best internet connection we have ever seen at a Hackathon.</p>
				<p class="big-intro">Tickets for the hackathon are available from August 12th, go to <a href="/tickets.html#hackathon" >Tickets</a> to pick one up.</p>
