FOSDEM 2026 is Europe’s premier community-driven conference for free and open-source software, bringing together developers, maintainers, contributors, and technical leaders from across the global open-source ecosystem.
The two-day event features hundreds of technical talks, keynotes, and hands-on sessions across more than 60 parallel developer rooms, covering topics such as operating systems, kernels, cloud infrastructure, programming languages, security, privacy, networking, and emerging technologies. Sessions are delivered in a non-commercial, open-access format with live streaming available globally.
Held at the ULB Solbosch Campus in Brussels, FOSDEM 2026 functions as a high-density collaboration and knowledge-sharing environment where contributors exchange ideas, recruit collaborators, and shape the future of open-source projects.
