Upcoming Conferences
FreeCAD North American Meetup 2026 August 07 - 09, 2026
Knoxville, TN/United States
The 2026 FreeCAD North American meetup is a gathering of FreeCAD professionals, enthusiasts, users, and developers. In 2026 our annual gathering is being hosted by the Knox Makers™ in Knoxville, TN, USA. The gathering is relatively informal: there will be ad hoc presentations, discussions, tutorials, and other activities, providing fertile ground for FreeCAD users and developers to work together to make FreeCAD better by sharing their experiences with each other.
FreeCAD Day 2026 January 30 2026
Brussels/Belgium
FreeCAD Day 2026 is a FOSDEM pre-conference for users and developers of the open-source parametric 3D design package FreeCAD. Anyone is welcome to attend: there is no charge, but pre-registration is requested so we know how many people to expect. If you are interested in presenting at the event, please see the Call for Participation and submit your idea for a lightning talk! Don't forget to also join us at FOSDEM in the Open Hardware and CAD/CAM Devroom on Sunday, 1 February 2026.
We will meet at the venue starting at 10am and expect to be there until 5pm (with a 1 hour break for lunch from 1-2).
FreeCAD Hackathon 2026 January 29 2026
Brussels/Belgium
The annual developer-focused "hackathon" held in partnership with the Brussels Hackerspace (HSBXL). This informal gathering of FreeCAD developers is an opportunity to gather in person and hack on FreeCAD. There's no set agenda or task, everyone simply gathers and works (together or individually) on their own projects, but with the ability to turn to the dev next to them to get immediate feedback.
