Events and Activities
PyCascades is more than a conference. Every year we make sure to have a variety of activities that our attendees can enjoy, whether you want to learn something, meet new people, or share knowledge.
- Welcome reception. The meet-and-greet reception will be held on Friday from 5:30-7:30pm. You can pick up your badge so you don't have to wait in line in the morning. This is a great chance to meet your fellow attendees before the conference starts.
- Lightning Talks. We'll have lightning talks each day of the conference. These are 5 minute presentations and a lot of fun. They can be about anything you want, this is your chance to share something you are passionate about with the audience. Slides are not required.
- Open Spaces. We'll be running the Open Spaces each conference day. Want to chat with like-minded folks about a specific thing? This is the place. We'll have a sign-up board so you know what's happening, and supplies to help you brainstorm.
- Sprints. The Sprints will be held on Monday from 9:30am-5pm, and you can drop in at any time during the day. If you have a project you want to propose to others, you can pitch your topic during the welcome announcement that morning. Please email us if you want to submit a project for the Sprints!
The Schedule page will have the most complete information about all our events and will be where we post any changes or cancellations if they occur.
