We're happy to announce the pre-launch website for this year's EuroPython 2021:

The site comes with an FAQ page, which lists all the information we have for you at the moment. We're repeating the most important part here:

EuroPython 2021 will be held online from July 26 - August 1, 2021,
using the following structure:

• 2 x workshop/training days (July 26 - 27)
• 3 x conference days (July 28 - 30)
• 2 x sprint days (July 31 - August 1)

The next steps are preparing the main conference website, adding content, organizing the call for papers (CFP), setting up the ticket system, the financial aid program, getting everything tested and deployed.

Want to join the fun ?

We'll have busy weeks ahead of us. If you want to help, please consider contacting us with details on where you would like to contribute. Please write to volunteers@europython.eu.

Distributed conferencing

We are also looking into setting up what we call EuroPython Nodes, where attendees can join small groups around the world to attend EuroPython 2021 together. Please see our FAQ entry for details. The idea is still in flux and we'd like to get some feedback from user groups or companies interested in participating.

PS: We have also moved our blog off of Tumblr and onto our own infrastructure. Hope you like the new design.

Enjoy,
EuroPython 2021 Team
