Jailbreak HQ

What is Jailbreak? Jailbreak is Ireland’s largest student-run fundraiser, now entering its 8th year, with all proceeds split between Amnesty International and Saint Vincent de Paul. During Jailbreak, teams of 2 have 36 hours to escape the starting point in Dublin and race toward ‘Location X,’ which is revealed over the course of the competition with the help of several clues. However, teams may not spend any of their own money in order to reach the destination. Over the course of the last seven years, Jailbreak has grown exponentially, involving several colleges across Ireland and seeing a massive increase in the number of teams participating. Jailbreak has raised over €315,000 since its start in 2013. This year due to restrictions, Jailbreak will be run fully online. The race will be spread out over 2 weeks with different challenges released every day that you can complete within your own 5k. The challenges will be rounded off with a 24 hour live stream from Jailbreak HQ, where we will be inviting artists, guest speakers and past participants to come celebrate and bring awareness to our two amazing charities, who now more than ever are counting on the crucial proceeds of Jailbreak.
