Where is the conference?
For the main conference days, UCSF Mission Bay Conference Center. We are returning coz' it is convenient for both drivers and public transportation lovers. It has yummy, healthy food! It gently nudges us to take a time out for our mind and body: lay out on the grass, play frisbees, enjoy the sun, or work it out for $20 at their onsite gym with rock climbing and racquet ball. Their staff is serious about sustainability and accessibility too.
For the pre-conference workshops, we are looking to partner with companies that has day-time event space in SF fitting 40-80 people classroom style 8/15-16. Please email Grace, our Conference Chair.
How much are the passes? When do they go on sale?
Do Workshops Cost Extra?
Yes. Half-day workshops are $150 and full-day workshops are $250-$300.
Workshop pass will be released in June 2019.
I am interested in supporting diversity, what can I do?
Super! We raised almost $20K last year and help 35 under-represented folks attend PyBay! We want to do even better this year.
If you are passionate about recognizing the diverse talents in the Python community and bringing Python to more underserved people, please email Grace, our Conference Chair and help Chair that effort! This page highlights what we've done last year D&I program.
