Is there some kind of certification that the hackathon organizers got to be allowed to do this?

u wot m8?

More specifically, though it may be easy to forget in this age of all-corporate and sponsored and sold-out meetups, the only thing it takes to make a hackathon is to show up with computers and friends and hack code.

The only thing required to do a themed hackathon is to say "Yo, here's the theme for our hackathon."

That's the magic of being a hacker.
