Get ready to make a splash! FIRST DIVE is launching September 7 in Alberta!

This year, FIRST students will grow their STEM skills in an unforgettable oceans-inspired robotics season! In the 2024-2025 FIRST DIVE season presented by Qualcomm, teams will use their STEM and collaboration skills to explore life beneath the surface of the ocean. Along the way, we will uncover the potential in each of us to strengthen our community and innovate for a better world with healthy oceans.

Join us in Edmonton or Calgary to kick off the FIRST LEGO League and FIRST Tech Challenge season! We will start the day by displaying the SUBMERGE challenge table, followed by the Robot Game Missions Video. At 10AM, it is time to dive INTO THE DEEP  with the official game release video that will be live all around the world for the first time! The day will end with a Q & A session about the new FIRST Tech Challenge season including important changes starting this year and a complete tour of the new field.

It does not matter if you are with a team, a volunteer or simply someone that enjoys FIRST, you are all welcome to join us for the Alberta Kickoff and connect with others that make FIRST, FIRST. You do NOT want to miss this kickoff; it MAY contain WATER!!!

Doors open at 9 on September 7, 2024. Videos start around 9:30.
