Join a Claude Community Event, organized by local enthusiasts for everyone who loves building with Claude!
Talk first, build next
Claude Conversations runs as a pair of events. The talk was on Thursday 17 September, when people who use Claude all day sat beside people who are mainly just uneasy about it and worked through three questions: what does AI mean for my job, what is AI doing to me, my kids and my community, and who decides the rules. This is the build.
We're going back through everything that came up and pulling out the problems people actually named, the ones concrete enough to build against. Those become the briefs, and they'll be posted on this page ahead of the day. Each team picks one and spends the evening building something with Claude Code that takes a real swing at it.
How the evening runs
Doors open at 17:00. Come with a team of up to five, or come on your own and we'll put you with people when you arrive. Teams pick a brief and build until demos start at around 20:00, with pizza in the middle so nobody has to down tools for long. Every team then gets a few minutes to show what it built, running live, and the winners are announced before we finish at 21:00.
Credits, prizes and judging
Every participant gets $100 in Claude API credits, and the winning team takes the prizes, including a month of Claude Max 20x for each member. Builds are judged on how directly they take on the problem they picked, whether they actually work when shown live, and whether someone could realistically pick them up and use them after the night.
Who it is for
People who already code with Claude Code. Four hours goes quickly and there's no time to learn the tool on the night, so you should be comfortable building and shipping with it before you arrive. If you're new to Claude Code, this isn't the one to start with.
Before you come
Bring a laptop with Claude Code installed and working, and your charger. The API credits attach to an organisation in the Claude Console (console.anthropic.com), not a personal Claude.ai account, and a personal account won't take the code, so set up an organisation before the day. You'll get the redemption link on the night.
The usual Claude Community terms
Free to attend, as every Claude Community event is. In person, in Dublin. Places are limited and registrations are approved, so if you register and then can't make it, please release your place for someone else.
