📅 Events with open ticket sales and applications
Each event during Devconnect week will be independently hosted and curated by the organizing teams. Ticketing will be handled by them (not the Devconnect team), so you’ll need to secure tickets for each event you want to attend. Keep in mind that Devconnect aims to be productive, which means smaller audiences and ticket applications for some events to target relevant audiences.
Below, you find a table with events that opened up ticket sales or applications. We’ll keep our schedule updated over at Devconnect.org, as further additions to the Devconnect schedule come together.
