The AYON Summit is back in Prague on 28 and 29 May 2026. If you’ve been meaning to spend proper time with the pipeline community, swap notes with other studios, and get closer to the AYON team and roadmap, this is the moment to lock it in. Tickets are on sale now, and we genuinely recommend booking early.

Early bird pricing runs until 31 March 2026. Workshop spaces are limited to 50 people, and those spots went fast last time, so avoid missing out by securing your tickets.

Day 1 - AYON workshops - 28 May

The first day will go beyond coding, by offering a variety of workshops for all levels. We’ll work directly with all the participants ahead of the event to help define which topics to tackle on the day so the topics are relevant and are catered for a variety of needs. Those with a workshop ticket will get access to a private Discord channel where we’ll organise the whole day together.

Fed and watered, this day is for those who want a closer involvement with the AYON team. Just bring good vibes, and we’ll supply the pipeline with endless coffee and lunch!
