EuroPython 2026: Celebrating 25 Years

What’s happening at EuroPython 2026? The conference celebrates its 25th anniversary this year in Kraków, Poland. This week on the show, organizers Mia Bajić and Daria Linhart Grudzien join me to discuss this year’s conference.

Mia serves as the Vice Chair of the EuroPython Society, and Daria leads the EuroPython communications team. We dig into the details of the conference, including the wide variety of tracks, the reasoning for selecting the location, and the additional activities surrounding the event.

We talk about volunteering, organizing, and continuing support for conferences. Mia and Daria also share the talks they’re excited to check out and how they use Python currently.
