Hello Qt,
We are happy to announce the dates for the Qt Contributors Summit 2026!
This year, we shall meet for the summit on October 28th and 29th in Oslo, Norway. We are back to two full days of discussions and workshops to set the direction for the Qt Project. Whether you are a seasoned maintainer, an experienced contributor, or a Qt enthusiast looking to learn, engage with the community, and become part of the project - this event has something for you!
This year's Qt Contributors Summit will be hosted by our friends at reMarkable. And to make it even more interesting, we are turning this into* a "week of Qt in Oslo" and add two more reasons to visit Norway in October:
On the 27th, we will open our Qt office and invite you to join us for a viewing of the virtual Qt World Summit 2026. More information will become available later as the planning of the event proceeds, but this will be a great opportunity to meet the people behind the technology.
The welcome event for the Qt Contributors Summit will then take place in the evening of the 27th, and with Oslo being the birthplace of Qt, we might have a few surprise guests.
And lastly, following the Qt Contributors Summit days, we will again open our Qt office for a Friday hackathon on October 30th. All contributors will be welcome to follow up on the discussions we had, and to start prototyping and building some of the ideas from the previous days.
So please mark your calendars for October 27th to 30th in Oslo, Norway, and stay tuned for more information.
Volker Hilsheimer
Chief Maintainer of the Qt Project
