New Events Coming Up!

Nobody wanted to wait half a year for the next Saskatoon event, so we added one in March.  😀
We’ve updated the Events page with all the latest info!  Go there to access the registration links for each event.

Saskatoon: March 14-15, 2026 – Kilobots 64 @ FingerTech HQ

Calgary: May 2-3, 2026 – Kilobots 65 @ Calgary Maker Faire

Kilobots 63 – January 24-25, 2026 – FingerTech HQ in Saskatoon

It gets cold in Saskatchewan in January and many of us require a good excuse to leave our basements.  Well, here is a great excuse!  Dust off your old bots.  Build something new. Bring them to Kilobots 63, held at FingerTech Robotics HQ.
Spectators are welcome!  We will have seats for 15~20 people.

Registration now open: https://buildersdb.com/Kilobots63

Times:
Saturday, January 24th the doors will be open at 10am.  You can start setting up your pit area then.  Builder’s meeting and tech will start at 11am, with fights to start at 12 noon.  We will run fights until 5pm on Saturday.

Sunday, January 25th again doors will open at 10am.  Fights will start at 11am with the goal to be done by early afternoon.  This all depends on how the brackets go and how much extra time we give for repairs between fights.  With the current field of bots registered, we should easily be done by 3pm but probably even earlier.  (Ending early makes it easier for the Albertans to get home at a decent hour.)

Kilobots 62 – November 10, 2025 – TELUS Spark Centre Calgary

Kilobots returns to TELUS Spark for a one-day event on Monday, November 10th! This will be a smaller event so registration numbers will be capped much more than they were at Nationals. Apply early or risk missing out on a slot in the competition.

As this is the first time we’ve done one of these smaller events in Calgary, we will be restricting each team to one robot per division (rookies and masters count separately). You may apply with multiple robots, however the additional robots will be placed on the waiting list. If a situation occurs where antweight rookies and masters do not have enough competitors to have two separate tournaments, we may combine them.

Next Event: July 12-13, 2025 – Kilobots 60 & BBQ @ FingerTech HQ

Bot builders!

Have you figured out your upgrades for Nationals? Do you need an extra test to make sure you design is viable? Do you crave bot parts and scrap metal?

Well I have an announcement for you!  Kilobots 60 & BBQ!
This event will be happening July 12-13th, 10am-5pm at the FingerTech Robotics headquarters in Saskatoon.

Enjoy our BBQ fundraiser (Hotdogs & Burgers) and chat with your fellow builders on ideas, improvements and repairs that you can make. Funds from the BBQ will go back into the club to help with arena repairs and make future events even better.
