It takes place on Friday 19 March 2027 from 9am to 6pm at We The Curious in Bristol\, UK. The event is a single-track day of practical\, developer-focused talks\, hands-on sessions and community time\, suitable for developers at all experience levels. It is an Umbraco Foundation event.\n\n### Content and topics\n\nThe talks cover the latest tools\, patterns and practice across the Umbraco ecosystem. Listed topics include front-end and back-end development\, DevOps\, integrations\, accessibility and AI-assisted development. The page notes that last year's line-up included speakers from Umbraco HQ\, Umbraco MVPs and the wider community\, with lightning talks\, live demos and some lighter\, unexpected insights.\n\n### Agenda and format\n\nThe day runs as one main track\, so there are no clashing sessions.

The day ends with the Package Jam Award.\n\n### Speakers and hosts\n\nThe event is hosted by Sophie Neale and Warren Buckley.
