Robot

Hebocon 2026: The Junky Robot Competition In-Person

Ages 10–14

Registration is required.

If you love robots but aren’t technically inclined, then Hebocon is for you! Founder Daiju Ishikawa created Hebocon with the core philosophy to “enjoy failure.” In this one-day workshop, you create a robot from assorted junk and gadgets, and then your robot competes in a sumo-style battle. A prize is awarded to the winning robot as well as to the most “heboi” (poor quality) robot as well. The library provides all supplies.
