DrupalCamp in Germany: Networking & Knowledge Transfer

DrupalCamps have been highly valued within the community for many years. As in many open source communities, they are considered the most important events for exchanging ideas, driving innovation, learning from each other, and contributing together.

“With the seventh DrupalCamp Ruhr since 2010, we are the longest-serving of all German-language DrupalCamps. That's something to be proud of.” - Nicolai Schwarz, DrupalCamp Ruhr organizing team.

DrupalCamps take place all over the world throughout the year and are listed at the following link: www.Drupal.org/community/events. In 2024, the last DrupalCamp in Germany took place in Berlin with more than 170 participants (DrupalCamp Berlin), but the Drupal community has also met in Hamburg, Munich, Schwerin, Frankfurt, and many other cities in the past.
