Coordinating the Montpellier site, from the launch of the national topic until the early hours.
Nuit de l'Info: Montpellier site
The Nuit de l'Info, a national overnight coding challenge, takes place at dozens of sites across France. Yggame organises only the Montpellier site: welcoming participants, hosting the night and running its production.

The project
The Nuit de l'Info is a national competition that brings students, teachers and companies together to develop a web application. It lasts one night, from sunset to sunrise: in 2025, from Thursday 4 December at 4:34 pm to Friday 5 December at 8:04 am.
A national topic, partner challenges
The topic, kept secret until the start, is revealed at sunset at every site at the same time. In 2025, it was “The Resilient Digital Village: how can schools stand up to Big Tech?”. Teams, often mixing years and courses, deliver a website or web application and can also take on up to five challenges set by partners. The juries meet the following morning.
The Montpellier site, organised by Yggame
The Nuit de l'Info takes place at the same time at many sites across France: 78 in 2025, with 6,635 participants. Yggame does not organise the national competition, only the Montpellier site, at the IUT de Montpellier: welcoming the teams, hosting the night, logistics and participant comfort, so that everyone stays focused and motivated until morning.
Our role
Hosting
Energy, check-ins and activities to keep teams motivated all night long.
