Building on the success of last year's event, the conference will once again offer two full days of talks and workshops spread across multiple rooms, packed with open source geospatial content, discussion and plenty of networking opportunities. No matter who you are, this is the prime national gathering for the open source geospatial community in the UK.
Here's just some of what folks said about the event in 2025, and we are planning more of the same in 2026:
Fantastic event, thanks for organising!
Just to reiterate that it was beyond my expectations and really enjoyable - well done to all involved.
The openness of the presenters and also all the other attendees is also excellent and the networking invaluable.
Great engagement from everyone (speakers, sponsors, delegates) made for a lot of interaction, learning and excitement.
Very happy to see a lot of new faces, and first time presenters. Definitely one of the best of recent events!
Fantastic, would definitely come again.
Well done to the FOSS4G team, great work. Big pat on the back.
FOSS4G:UK 2026 SPONSORSHIP
If your organisation is keen to support the event, sponsorship packages are still available. In particular we are looking for additional Gold and Silver level sponsors, as well as sponsors for the evening social event. Could this be you or your organisation? We also have a new sponsorship level just for freelancers and independent consultants - you can sponsor the OSGeo:UK AGM which will get your name in front of all AGM attendees. Sponsorship is a fantastic way to raise your profile within this vibrant and growing community and a way to support the OSGeo:UK volunteers in continuing to put on events like these.

FOSS4G:UK 2026 CALL FOR TALKS
The conference is built on the awesome work that you (yes, you!) are undertaking. All of the sessions, workshops and talks only exist because members of the community submit proposals for presentations. A strong conference comes from having more submissions than sessions so that the most interesting and diverse set of presentations can be selected. Everyone is strongly encouraged to submit a presentation proposal.
