Starting 1 January 2025, a modest, localised event fee will be introduced. This will be used solely to ensure a sustainable model to pay for the underlying infrastructure that powers the DevOpsDays global community. Both the global organisation and local events themselves will continue to be volunteer-run, and none of these funds will be used to remunerate volunteers at any level.
You can read more about the program in the event organisers guide: https://devopsdays.org/organizing#sustainability-donation
The guide update includes a number of FAQs, but if you have additional questions, please get in touch via [email protected], or reach out on the organiser Slack.
