AWS GAMEDAY

Join us for an official AWS GameDay experience! 🎮

The AWS Twin Cities User Group is bringing AWS GameDay to Minneapolis and we'd love to see you there.

🎮 What is AWS GameDay?
Think hackathon meets workshop. It's a hands-on, interactive, team-based experience where you solve real-world cloud challenges in a live AWS environment. You earn points as you go, and the top teams will win prizes courtesy of AWS and HashiCorp.
You and your team will:
Deploy and troubleshoot live AWS workloads
Solve architecture and operational challenges
Earn points on a real-time leaderboard
Compete in a friendly but intense cloud showdown

🤝 Who's involved?
AWS and industry partner HashiCorp power this GameDay, with Improving hosting us for the evening. The official AWS GameDay team will stand up and manage the entire environment, provision accounts, and guide the experience. We'll also have local AWS employees supporting throughout the night.

✨ What to expect

2–3 hours of immersive, competitive cloud challenges
Food & refreshments
A room full of people who build on AWS
