Verified each against its official page (2026-07-12) before adding. - Hack Your Way Into the Hacker House / Flight Zero (OnlyExit + localhost:nyc) New York, NY, In-Person, open (approval-gated, 116 spots left). Event Jul 18. Prize is non-monetary: fast-track OnlyExit Hacker House interview. - Checkout: The Travel & Hospitality Hackathon (localhost:nyc) New York, NY, In-Person, open (approval-gated). Event Aug 8. Prize TBD. - Knight Hacks IX (University of Central Florida) Orlando, FL, In-Person, open. Event Oct 9-11. Two corrections to what was submitted: 1. No deadlines. Both NYC submissions listed a "deadline" that is simply the day before the event date (Jul 17 for a Jul 18 event; Aug 7 for an Aug 8 event). Neither page publishes a registration deadline, so the field is omitted rather than inventing one -- the same event-date-as-deadline bug already cleaned out of the rest of the file. 2. Knight Hacks prize is TBA, not $60,000. The $60k figure on the site sits under a "Last year at Knight Hacks" retrospective, not a 2026 prize pool. Also added "Orlando, FL" to the web geocode table. Without it Knight Hacks would have silently vanished from the globe (issue #111) -- the NYC entries are normalized to "New York, NY" for the same reason, since the submitted "Manhattan, NYC" is not a geocode key. HackGT (#133) was NOT added: it already exists as "HackGT 13". Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Adds the 3 hackathons requested via community issues that were not already listed. Each was verified against its official page on 2026-07-12.
Two corrections to what was submitted
1. Neither NYC event has a published deadline. Both submissions gave a "deadline" that is just the day before the event date:
2026-07-17→ the event is Jul 182026-08-07→ the event is Aug 8Neither Luma page publishes a registration deadline. The field is omitted rather than inventing one — this is the same event-date-as-deadline bug already cleaned out of the rest of
listings.json. (Both events are genuinely open, approval-gated, and not full.)2. Knight Hacks prize is
TBA, not $60,000. The$60,000on the site appears under a "Last year at Knight Hacks" retrospective — it is not an announced 2026 prize pool.Geocoding
Added
"Orlando, FL"to the geocode table inweb/lib/listings.ts— without it Knight Hacks would have silently vanished from the globe (issue #111). For the same reason the NYC entries are normalized to"New York, NY"; the submitted"Manhattan, NYC"is not a geocode key.Result: 62 listings, and the only unmapped one is Arcangel (location is literally
TBA).Not added
HackGT (#133) — already exists as
HackGT 13 — Sep 25–27, 2026(hack.gt). Closing that issue as a duplicate.Verification
