Carleton Capital Circuit 2026 | FIRST Robotics Exhibition
November 27 @ 9:00 am - November 28 @ 6:00 pm
See student-built robots in action at Carleton Capital Circuit, a two-day exhibition featuring teams from FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC) and FIRST Tech Challenge (FTC). Hosted with Carleton University’s Faculty of Engineering and Design, the event gives visitors a look at how students design, program and operate their robots in live matches.
Both programs will run match demonstrations that showcase the engineering, strategy and teamwork behind each robot. It’s an opportunity for families, educators and Ottawa’s technology community to see what student robotics teams are building and how they put their designs to the test.
Schedule highlights
- Friday, 9 a.m. onward — Team load-in and robot inspections
- Friday, 1:15–7 p.m. — First round of qualification matches
- Saturday, 9 a.m. — Qualification matches resume
- Saturday, 2:30–6 p.m. — Planned playoff matches
Come cheer on the teams and see how students bring their engineering ideas to life on the field. Teams interested in participating can register at no cost.
