Here’s what you’ll enjoy

  • BE WITH YOUR PEOPLE

    Connect with like-minded developers, network with your open source heroes, and meet tech leaders you can stay in touch with long after the event is over.

  • LEARN SOMETHING NEW

    Explore AI agents, automation, and tools that can bring your ideas to life in the format that works best for you—through workshops, panels, interactive product demos, and more.

  • HEAR THE LATEST

    There’s something a little magical about discovering new products and features the moment they’re released—and that’s what you’ll get at GitHub Universe.

  • REVEL IN THE PERKS

    Yeah, GitHub Universe is really fun (especially when it’s wonderland-themed!). Expect surprises and interactive experiences like the Makerspace and Open Source Zone.
