Used to be, we had a plethora of open source conferences that graced Portland throughout the year. And while we don’t have quite the quantity of those events that we once had, it’s still nice to see the month to month open source gatherings — and the smattering of larger events. Larger events like FOSSY 20205.
FOSSY (Free and Open Source Yearly) is focused on the creation and impact of free and open source software, uplifting contributors of all experience. We are also mindful of having a safe environment for all. In this new time of conferences, we will be focused on potentially contagious disease safety and making sure all attendees feel safe participating as much as they feel comfortable.
Taking place in Portland, OR, FOSSY is a community focused event that invites local community, as well as the wider internet and global communities we have formed over the years. Whether you are a long time contributing member of a free software project, a recent graduate of a coding bootcamp or university, or just have an interest in the possibilities that free and open source software bring, FOSSY will have something for you.
The event takes place July 31 – August 3, 2025. It will be held at Portland State University.
