NEW!
⌄uncodebar 2023
Sat, 9th September | 10:00 - 17:30 BST
Now in the NINTH year, uncodebar, the codebar unconference is back! Our annual one-day conference that encourages the codebar community to come together, share knowledge, and strengthen the community that supports our workshops.

At an unconference:
- no topics predetermined
- no keynote speakers
- no panels or working groups
Instead:
+ collaboration
+ no agenda until the day
+ freedom & discussion
The event
An unconference is a "loosely structured open space event emphasising the informal exchange of information and ideas between participants."
The event lives and dies through the participation of its attendees. You propose talks, workshops, and panels and decide what topics will be discussed. Then people convene in separate breakout sessions. In other words, an unconference has no agenda until the morning when participants create it.

Absolutely, and we take it very seriously. Please take a read here.
It is 100% free! We are really lucky to have some great companies who support uncodebar and ensure all our events will be free, forever!
If you are in the UK, we may have some budget to pay for your travel. Please fill in this form. Unfortunately, if you're outside the UK, we don't have budget. We would love to help everyone but securing sponsorship this year has been tougher than ever before.
This event is just in person.
Nope. The whole goal of an unconference is that it is personal, and intimate. We record lots of other amazing sessions, please check them out on our YouTube.
