Welcome to PostgreSQL Europe, the "umbrella group" for PostgreSQL User Groups in Europe and for users in regions that don't have a local user group. Our goal is to promote the use of PostgreSQL in Europe. We do this primarily by assisting local user groups to promote the product locally through conferences and other advocacy, as well as running European-wide conferences and other activities.
PGConf.EU 2026 has come to an end, and we want to say a big thank you to everyone who joined us in Valencia.
Thank you to our speakers for sharing their knowledge, to our sponsors for making the conference possible, and to our volunteers, who worked tirelessly throughout the week. Most of all, thank you to all of you for coming, for the conversations in the corridors and for being such a welcoming community.
Safe travels home, and see you next year!
Goodbye, and thanks for all the fish!
Day one of PGConf.EU 2026 is done!
We started the day with the Women's Breakfast, and then a full programme of talks, conversations and catching up with the community followed. Huge thanks to our volunteers, who worked tirelessly at registration and as room hosts in the talk sessions, to our speakers for their presentations, and to our sponsors for making it all possible.
On Wednesday we start at 9:00 with a welcome address from Chris Ellis and Karen (Karrie) Jex, followed by a full day of talks and the platinum sponsor keynotes to finish.
