Hack Glasgow 2026 Attendee Name Badge

Completed write-in Scottish conference identity badge

A conservative completed Scottish attendee-identity artifact. Hack Glasgow's official statistics page, updated August 16, reports continuing 2026 ticket and check-in reporting after the August 15 conference; its FAQ says attendees could write any handle or name on their badge on the day. The sources do not establish the badge's material, ticket inclusion, allocation, electronics, access role, or individual delivery.

2026 event and FAQ publisher

Hack Glasgow

The official organizer page publishes the reviewed 2026 event context and attendee name/handle wording. This source-attribution credit does not assign badge design, manufacture, issuance, allocation, technical authorship, delivery, or image-rights authority.

Why It Mattered

It makes a directly organizer-confirmed completed conference credential discoverable without converting a name/handle field into an unsupported electronic badge, QR credential, ticket-wide entitlement, or individual badge handoff.

Hardware

The official FAQ establishes only a badge on which an attendee can write a handle or name. It does not identify paper, plastic, metal, a lanyard, dimensions, printed artwork, barcode, QR code, RFID/NFC, display, PCB, battery, components, manufacturing, quantity, or final physical form.

Software & Apps

No badge firmware, app, repository, protocol, digital identity system, scan process, CTF linkage, or electronic interaction is documented. The event's separate requirement to scan a valid QR code on entry is not treated as evidence that the attendee name badge itself carries or implements that QR code.

Lore

Hack Glasgow describes itself as an annual community-led hacker conference in Glasgow, Scotland. Its official 2026 schedule and event page place the sophomore event at Citizens Theatre on August 15 with talks, villages, and an afterparty; the organizer's statistics page updated August 16 reports 2026 ticket and check-in reporting. The handle/name FAQ wording establishes a completed-event identity-artifact reference only; it does not establish which ticket types received a badge, who provided it, whether it was required for entry, or whether any individual received one.

Organizer-described handle/name write-in field

Operational history

Issues & Camp Impact

badge technology, access-control, and data boundary note

The official FAQ says a valid QR code is scanned on entry and separately says a handle or name may be written on a badge. It does not connect those statements or publish a badge barcode/QR, RFID/NFC, chip, firmware, app, protocol, identity system, data collection, privacy notice, retention, account linkage, CTF behavior, repository, or security review.

The entry does not turn the event's admission procedure into a technical feature, access-control claim, or data-handling claim about the attendee name badge.

missing rights-cleared image note

No Hack Glasgow 2026 Attendee Name Badge image is published because the current public source trail has not been paired with a reusable original badge or artifact photo or official upstream raster render with source URL, license or permission basis, attribution, and processing notes.

The United Kingdom record remains source-backed and image-free rather than copying source-page media, documentation screenshots, event photos, social media, placeholders, or generated approximations.

ticket eligibility, allocation, and delivery boundary note

The official pages refer to an attendee badge and the post-event statistics page reports ticket and check-in reporting, but none establishes which ticket categories, speakers, volunteers, sponsors, press attendees, or guests received one; who supplied it; ticket-to-badge mapping; quantity; price; pickup procedure; presentation requirements; loss/replacement policy; shipment; receipt; or a completed delivery ledger.

The catalogue preserves the organizer's credential language without presenting it as a ticket-wide entitlement, admission requirement, or proof that any individual received a badge.

write-in identity-artifact classification and physical-form gap note

Hack Glasgow's FAQ says an attendee may write a handle or name on their badge, while its August 16 statistics update supports completion of the August 15 event. Neither source identifies paper, plastic, metal, lanyard, dimensions, printed design, barcode, QR code, RFID/NFC, display, PCB, components, battery, manufacture, quantity, or final physical form.

The record is deliberately modeled as a completed-event identity artifact rather than an electronic badge or a more specific physical credential unsupported by the organizer's public wording.
