The Language Summit will be held at EuroPython this year. Is the exact date for that event known yet? It’s important for core devs to schedule their travel.

I believe the SciPy US sprints are also happening at the same time. I’m one of the co-chairs of the sprints committee this year and am interested in figuring out how we can plan for sprints that might happen simultaneously in Krakow and Minneapolis.

Do you know who I should contact in the EuroPython and EuroSciPy organizing commitees?

Hey Guido, I’ve shared details earlier in the thread here: Language Summit at EuroPython 2026 - #6 by egeakman.

But to summarize: Tuesday, July 14th, 2026, following a standard full-day schedule with coffee breaks and lunch. It will take place at ICE Krakow Congress Centre.

Hey Nathan, yes! We had the same thing in mind! If you could send an email to em@europython.eu, we can start the thread there and continue the discussion :slightly_smiling_face:

That’s awesome! As I wrote on the PSF blog in September, sprints are the best part of a conference:

In particular, EuroPython’s sprints were only smaller in output due to them being shorter (2 days) than PyCon US sprints (4 days) in the years prior. This year the PSF levelled the field by also shortening their sprints to 2 days, so this year we have a decent shot at becoming the most productive conference sprint week in the Python ecosystem :smiley:

Hi Nathan, This sounds amazing!

We’ve been thinking about it in the past few weeks, and we have some very unique ideas already.

Let’s get in touch asap, so we can discuss the logistics :slight_smile:
