Interesting Conferences in 2026

Each year I compile a list of interesting conferences and share it publicly so that people can coordinate with me or with others.

As you can tell, the things listed below are mostly in the DWeb, Open Source, and Standards spaces. Also there is a bias to the Cascadia region since it is easier for me to get to.

If you have other suggestions, please leave a comment, hit me up and I might add it. Or if you have a list, I can link it below.

Needless to say, I won’t be going to all of these. The ones with a checkbox ▢ are the ones I am (currently) planning on going to. This is a living doc so it will change.
