JCON EUROPE 2025 returns as one of the leading Java community events in Europe. Last year’s edition welcomed participants from 56 countries across six continents. The 10th edition will not only feature a packed schedule of technical sessions and live coding formats, but will also place a stronger emphasis on personal exchange and community interaction. Several curated networking formats will complement the conference program, offering attendees direct access to speakers, experts, and peers.
The following formats have been confirmed:
- Live coding on the big screen
Held once again at Cinedom Multiplex Cinema in Cologne, JCON EUROPE offers a conference format unique in Germany: all sessions are presented with live coding on the big screen. Speakers demonstrate code in real time, creating a high-impact, cinematic learning environment tailored to developers. - VIP Party (Wednesday, 7:00 PM)
An exclusive evening event for VIP ticket holders (JCON Premium Pass) and invited guests. The format provides direct access to speakers, developers, and industry experts in a private setting. Food and drinks included. The venue will be announced separately. - Mentorship Hub (Daily)
