We currently have two calendars in place: * Python Events Calendar - meant for conferences and larger gatherings focusing on Python or a related technology (in whole or in part) * Python User Group Calendar - meant for user group events and other smaller local events The calendars are displayed on https://www.python.org/events/ and http://pycon.org/. There's also a map mashup to show events near you or get an overview of what currently going in the Python community: http://lmorillas.github.io/python_events/ You can subscribe to the calendars using iCal and RSS feeds and also embed the calendar widgets on your sites. We have also added a Twitter feed @PythonEvents to get immediate updates whenever a new event is added. Please see our wiki page for details: https://wiki.python.org/moin/PythonEventsCalendar The calendars are open to the world-wide Python community, so you can have local user group events, as well as regional and international conference events added to the calendars. ________________________________________________________________________ NEWS Looking back, the calendars have proven to be a great tool for the Python community to connect, with more than 250 conferences and more than a hundred of user group events listed since 2012. We would therefore like to encourage everyone to submit their 2017 events, so that the Python community can get a better overview over what's happening in Python land. ________________________________________________________________________ ADDING EVENTS Please see the instructions at https://wiki.python.org/moin/PythonEventsCalendar#Submitting_an_Event for details on how to submit an event. We've made it really easy for you: just need to send an email to our team address using the email template we provide for this. Thanks. ________________________________________________________________________ MORE INFORMATION More information on the calendars, the URLs, feed links, IDs, embedding, etc. is available on the wiki: https://wiki.python.org/moin/PythonEventsCalendar Enjoy, -- Marc-Andre Lemburg Python Software Foundation http://www.python.org/psf/ http://www.malemburg.com/ From stephane at wirtel.be Mon Jan 9 04:54:49 2017 From: stephane at wirtel.be (Stephane Wirtel) Date: Mon, 9 Jan 2017 10:54:49 +0100 Subject: [Conferences] Python Events in 2017, Need your help. Message-ID: <20170109095449.v4ual5czl5mc7xxs@sg1> Dear Community, For the PythonFOSDEM [1] on 4th and 5th February in Belgium, I would like to present some slides with the Python events around the World. Based on https://python.org/events, I have noted that there are missing events, for example: * PyCon Otto: Italy * PyCon UK: United Kingdom * PyCon CA: Canada * PyCon Ireland: Ireland * PyCon France: France Some of these events are not yet announced and I understand they are in the second semester, and thus, they don't know the location and the dates, excepted for PyCon Otto (April). In fact, I have noted that we know some big events in the Python community (for example: PyCon US and EuroPython) but do you know the others events, maybe the local event, PyCon IE, PyCon UK or PyCon IT. I like to know where there is a PyCon or a Django Conf or a PyData Event. In fact, I think we can help the Python Community if we submit all the events in https://python.org/events. This page has been created by the PSF and is maintained by some volunteers. I know this list of events: * PyCon Cameroon : 20-23 Jav, Cameroon * PythonFOSDEM : 4-5 Feb, Belgium * PyCon Colombia : 10-12 Feb, Colombia * PyCon Pune : 16-20 Feb, India * Swiss Python Summit : 17-18 Feb, Switzerland * IrPyCon : 17-18 Feb, Iran * PyCon SK : 10-13 Mar, Slovakia * Django Europe : 3-8 Apr, Italy * PyCon Otto : 6-9 Apr, Italy * Python Sudeste : 5-7 Mai, Brazil * GeoPython : 8-11 May, Switzerland * PyCon US : 17-26 May, USA * EuroPython : July, Italy * PyCon AU : 3-9 Aug, Australia * PyCon UK : September, United Kingdom * PyCon CA : November, Canada * PyCon Ireland : October, Ireland * PyCon FR : October/November, France And you ? Please, could you check on https://www.python.org/events/ , if you are an organizer, please add your event. If you think there is a missing event, please, send me the info via [email](mailto:stephane at wirtel.be) or via my [twitter account](https://twitter.com/matrixise) and I will add it on my slides. I would like to present your event. Thank you so much for your help.

We have a PyCon south of you in India. The main thing with organising conferences in my experience is having enough manpower and volunteers to make things happen. That would be where I'd start from. Gauge the local community and find people who can help you pull it off. Once that's done, you can look at the handbook which we made from our experience here https://github.com/pythonindia/pyconindia-handbook. Good luck and feel free to contact me if you need any help.
