Call For Community Events & Activities

The Call For Community Events & Activities for PostgreSQL Europe 2025 in
Riga, Latvia, is now open.

Unlike previous years, this year there will not be a day of training
sessions on the Tuesday before the main conference.  Instead we're
opening it up to the community to suggest events and activities which
people are interested in running on Tuesday Oct 21st.Your proposed event
or activity would span either the full day or half a day on Tuesday, Oct
21st. If you have an idea for a different length for a meeting or
session, please let us know as part of the submission, and we will see
if we can accommodate your request. Your event or activity would be open
for registration by attendees of the conference.  We're able to
accommodate events or activities from a few attendees up to 50 attendees.

Your event or activity should be focused around the PostgreSQL community
and not specific to a corporate interest. We prefer to see events that
are interactive with the participants rather than just
presentation-style events.As an organization we do need to cover the
venue costs associated with your proposed event or activity.  This will
likely be borne by your attendees, however we will consider proposals
where these costs are happy to be subsidized or covered by the
organizers of the proposed event or activity.Your proposed event could
be across a wide range of topics and formats.  We're not aiming to
restrict the community's creativity in the type of events or activities
proposed.

Examples could be:

*

Developer Meeting

*

Community Summit

*

Extension Summit

*

Driver Summit

*

Everything Backup Tools

*

Unconference

*

A PostgreSQL extension hacking session

*

Art & crafts room

*
