/* 2025 : BND#5 */
The '''BND coding party''', short for Benediction's Coding Party, is an annual event held in France, Normandy, Gavray-sur-Sienne.
Its aim is to be a Coding party, this means mostly sceners trying to release productionsadproductions before the deadline up until the last minute, but streamers, content creators or retrogamers may also attend the party.
It is the follow-up to the [[ReSet]], the main organizer being [[Eliot]] from [[Benediction]]. It became the biggest Amstrad CPC oriented event in the world, with over 40 attendants by its 4th edition.
The food is great, with many vegetables (the ones to eat and the ones using Amstrad computers), grilled camemberts, homemade pizzas and couscous.
The party is often simply abbreviated BND#.
