The openSUSE Conference is an annual gathering of the openSUSE Project and Open Source Communities. Known as oSC, it features a blend of virtual and in-person presentations as well as workshops and social gatherings.
The event will be held this year at the Z-Bau in Nuremberg, Germany, from June 25 to June 27, 2026. Our conference unites passionate, open-source enthusiasts to discuss and showcase the latest in open-source technologies, projects, and communities.
It’s a free community event, and your sponsorship is vital in ensuring this event remains accessible to all. Support us in making this remarkable event possible while keeping it free for attendees who actively contribute to several open-source projects and code.
