Building on last year, we are calling FOSS and digital commons communities to join us at IndiaFOSS 2026 as we curate the parallel / pre-events.
Through the IF weekend, thousands of FOSS folks from across the country descend on Bengaluru, talking open-source, complaining about traffic and occasionally remembering to attend a few talks. While the main conference always delivers, the show shouldn’t stop at that?
This is your chance to make the most out of the IndiaFOSS momentum with your community! Host a parallel or a pre-event:
- complement the main conference,
- help participants make the most of their annual IndiaFOSS pilgrimage.
If you’re a local community or space in Bangalore, we’d love for you to host your own event alongside IndiaFOSS. It could be a workshop, meetup, hack evening, or something experimental. Think mapping parties, maintainer meetups, movie screenings, networking dinners, potlucks at cubban, karaoke evenings and whatever else you can cook up!
If it’s remotely related to FOSS, we’ll also help promote it.
