What should be part of the party?

Hammer

Hands-on work with

Tools like Hammer & Jigsaw, do some modelling by using materials like plywood or legos, have VR (virtual reality) Technologies & Glases involved, use 3D-Printing, connect it with the IoT (Internet of Things), and round it up with Drones, Robots or remote controlled vehicles.

Fireworks

All this should lead to a Grand Finale

The character of the Grand Finale depends on your build party idea. The Grand Finale could be a team challenge, where each team presents their results or where the teams meet for a contest, for example a race. In case the build party becomes a single project with the goal to build one big thing, the grand finale could be a presentation of the results, for example showcase a huge flying unicorn and tell the spectators about the challenges of building it and which agile methods helped you to achieve the goals.

2016

In 2016 we did a Build Party CFP for the 1st time and published the results in a community vote. We received crazy ideas, like building a real Life Pac-Man or a big sized Ginger Bread House. The community voted very actively and finally decided for the Hovercraft Racers Build Party, which was hosted by Ordina.
