QUARK 2026: BITS Pilani Goa Gears Up for a Quantum Insurgence
BITS Pilani, K. K. Birla Goa Campus has officially announced the dates for QUARK 2026, its flagship technical festival, set to take place from 20th to 22nd February 2026. As one of India’s largest and most anticipated student run technical festivals, QUARK is back, this time with the bold and thought provoking theme, “Quantum Insurgence.”
The theme captures a spirit of disruption, innovation, and fearless intellectual exploration. Much like quantum theory revolutionized our understanding of the universe, QUARK 2026 aims to challenge conventional boundaries and spark ideas that redefine the future of science and technology.
Since its inception in 2006, QUARK has evolved into a nationally recognized platform that brings together some of the brightest young minds from premier institutions across the country. Over the years, it has built a reputation for blending academic rigor with large scale technical competitions, research driven showcases, and thought provoking discussions. From cutting edge engineering challenges to deep dives into pure sciences and emerging technologies, QUARK has consistently provided a stage for students to innovate, collaborate, and compete at the highest level.
QUARK 2026 promises an expansive lineup of events spanning engineering disciplines, natural sciences, computational fields, and frontier domains such as AI, sustainability, and advanced materials. Participants will have the opportunity to test groundbreaking ideas, solve real world problems, and engage with innovation that pushes the limits of possibility. Workshops, keynote sessions, and interactive experiences with industry leaders and researchers will further enrich the festival’s intellectual ecosystem.
Beyond its strong technical core, QUARK ’26 will also deliver an electrifying campus atmosphere. The nights will come alive with high energy performances, entertainment showcases, and large scale gatherings that celebrate the spirit of community and creativity. This unique fusion of intense competition by day and vibrant celebration by night makes QUARK an experience that extends far beyond a conventional technical festival.
With Quantum Insurgence, QUARK 2026 positions itself not merely as an event, but as a movement, driven by curiosity, ambition, and the relentless pursuit of excellence. It is a call to thinkers, builders, dreamers, and disruptors to rise, question, and create.
The future isn’t waiting.
This is your fest. See you at QUARK ’26.
