Join or host a GitHub Copilot Dev Days event near you

The way we build software is changing fast. AI is no longer a “someday” tool. It’s reshaping how we plan, write, review, and ship code right now. As products evolve faster than ever, developers are expected to keep up just as quickly. That’s why GitHub Copilot Dev Days exists: for developers to level up together on how they can use AI-assisted coding today.

GitHub Copilot Dev Days is a global series of hands-on, in-person, community-led events designed to help developers explore real-world AI-assisted coding with GitHub Copilot. Join us for the knowledge, stay for the great food, good vibes, and plenty of fun along the way. Find an event near you and register today.

Who is GitHub Copilot Dev Days for?

Anyone and everyone who is looking to improve their development workflow and learn something new! We have events run by and for folks from professional developers to students. Sessions cover various levels and programming backgrounds.

If it’s your first time trying out AI-assisted development, this event will introduce you to the tools and best practices to succeed from day one. If you’re more advanced, we’re excited to show you the latest tips and tricks to ensure you’re fully up to date.

What to expect from a GitHub Copilot Dev Day

Each event will feature live demos, practical sessions, and interactive workshops with high-quality training content. We will focus on real workflows you can use right away, whether you’re already using Copilot daily or just getting started. Your hosts are development experts: GitHub Stars, Microsoft MVPs, GitHub Campus Experts, Microsoft Student Ambassadors, GitHub and Microsoft employees, to name a few.

We will have training materials covering the GitHub Copilot CLI, Cloud Agent, GitHub Copilot in VS Code, Visual Studio, and other editors, and more! Different events will focus on different topics, so be sure to review the registration page beforehand.

The specific event details will vary, as each community event organizer might tweak the event to fit the interests of their local developer community. Here is a sample agenda:

• Introductory session: 30-45 minutes on GitHub Copilot.
• Local community session: 30-45 minutes by a local developer or community leader on relevant topics.
• Hands-on workshop: 1 hour of coding and practical exercises.

All events are an opportunity to connect with your local developer community, learn something new, and enjoy some snacks and swag!
