The Qiskit Fall Fest is a globally celebrated event series that brings together quantum enthusiasts to celebrate quantum technology and collaboration. The event series, now in its fourth year, is set to kick off in October and will feature a range of activities including challenges, hackathons, workshops, and social events. Last year’s festival drew over 4,000 participants, and the organizers are expecting an even bigger turnout in 2024.
