Mark your calendar: OSFF 2026, the Open Source, lands in New York, United States from 4 November 2026 to 5 November 2026, ready to bring the field together once more. The event gathers experts and professionals from across the field for several days of knowledge-sharing and networking. Because it comes around every year, each edition arrives with genuine anticipation. The Linux Foundation is at the helm, and their attention to the small things is what regular attendees notice most.

There is a reason OSFF 2026 calls New York home. The city offers the connectivity, venues and atmosphere that an event of this stature needs. New York keeps travel simple, with international routes in and dependable transport once you are on the ground. Places to stay are plentiful, and picking one near the venue keeps your mornings short and your options open. Leave a little time to explore: New York's dining, culture and attractions make the trip about more than just the event. For visitors coming from abroad, New York is also a great gateway to the rest of United States.

From fundamentals to the cutting edge, Open Source, Software Development, Software, Coding, Financial Services and Finance run through every part of the programme. Interactive formats keep the audience in the room and the discussion honest, well beyond the usual slide decks. Networking lounges and evening socials keep conversations going beyond the sessions.

Attendees leave with fresh ideas, new contacts and a clearer view of where the industry is heading. Whether you attend to learn, present or connect, OSFF 2026 offers a valuable platform for analysts, creators and decision-makers.

Rooms in New York get scarce as the dates approach, so securing a hotel near the venue sooner rather than later is the safer bet.
