// 04 · Our mission

Hacker Hotel is not a conference. Not a meetup. It's not any of those things. The world is in desperate need of community — and DJs are no different.

It's an immersive, high-energy workshop-meets-party experience for DJs who want more — more community, more creativity, and more confidence behind the decks. A "work-cation" built to get shxt done, then relax around the pool table and decks between sessions — with the best of Downtown Nashville nightlife.

// 05 · FAQ

Before you grab your pass.

01What exactly does the Virtual Access Pass include?

Live-streamed access to all 3 days of Hacker Hotel Nashville workshops (Aug 4–6, 2026), plus the complete recordings from Hacker Hotel 2025 ($497 value) to keep and rewatch — and a free month of Crate Hackers ($40 value) if you're a new member.

02Do I have to watch live?

No. Streams start at 10:00 AM each day, but you'll also be able to watch on-demand — so you won't miss a session if life gets in the way.

03How do I get $80 off?

You don't have to do anything — the early-bird discount is automatically applied at checkout, dropping your pass from $147 to $67 while it lasts.

04How do the free membership bonuses work?

New Crate Hackers members get one month of the membership ($30 value) free, and new Banger Button members get two months free — both included with your Virtual Access Pass. Existing members aren't eligible.

05I couldn't get an in-person ticket. Is this the same content?

Hacker Hotel Nashville is sold out — the virtual pass is how you get in. You'll watch the same workshops live from the penthouse, from the comfort of your home studio.

06Who is this for?

DJs who want more — more community, creativity and confidence behind the decks. It's open to all Crate Hackers & Dangerous DJs members through the backstage virtual pass.
