Background

RED TEAM VILLAGE

Call for All

The gates are officially open for DEF CON 34. We're looking for the builders, the breakers, and the dedicated volunteers who make the Red Team Village the premier destination for offensive security mastery.

Call for Presentations

The Red Team Village is looking for researchers and operators to lead our most interactive year yet! This year, we are prioritizing Tactics—hands-on, intimate learning sessions—and Workshops that pair deep-dive presentations with practical application. Whether you're debuting a new tool or mentoring the next generation of operators, we want your expertise on our stage.

Showcase your research, give back to the offensive security community, and help us make this year's village a powerhouse of tactical knowledge. Submissions are now open!

Call for Volunteers

The Village runs on the passion of our community. Volunteering is the best way to get behind the scenes, network with industry leaders, and contribute to the offensive security ecosystem. We have roles for all skill levels, from technical CTF support and workshop assistance to logistics and crowd management.

All volunteers receive exclusive RTV swag, an invite to the notorious RTV party, and our sincere appreciation for helping us build another legendary year!
