In each of the cities except Munich, the Microsoft will organize two-day events. The first day will be dedicated to demo-driven sessions that will focus on the latest technologies announced in MSBuild 2017. While on the day-2, Microsoft will organize full day hackathons for local developers where they will be given a business case and they will have to build a solution to meet that requirement. In Munich, there will be no hackathon, just interactive sessions and demonstrations.
Also, the company is planning to provide the attendees with the opportunity of experiencing Mixed Reality in real. Microsoft
says,
"In most locations, on both days, we’ll also have a Mixed Reality experience booth where you’ll be able to sign up for scheduled hands-on time with Microsoft HoloLens and our latest Windows Mixed Reality devices."
