We've had reports of it failing to load\. ## 🎤 Call for talks We’re now accepting talk proposals for Gleam Gathering 2027\. Whether you’re an experienced speaker or new to presenting, we want to hear your ideas\. This is your chance to contribute to the community, share knowledge, and inspire others\. Gleam welcomes everyone and we want to ensure this is continued in the GG27\. As this is a dedicated Gleam conference, we are targeting more technical, advanced talks\. However, we want**everyone**to feel included, whether you're an old hand with Gleam or a newcomer\.

What we aren’t looking for this time: - Product/language update \(we will have this covered, and we want your talks to demonstrate real innovation within the community\) - Beginner demos – we absolutely welcome Gleam novices, but we will be diving into more detail in the long form talks\. Please consider a lightning talk format if you’d love to share anything on this topic\. - Keynotes \(we are really fortunate to already have this one sorted\) ## Formats accepted: Talks of either: 1. 30mins \(20\-25 min presentation with 5\-10 min Q&A session\) 2. 45mins \(30\-35 min presentation with 10\-15 min Q&A session\) ## Organisers' Responsibilities We’re committed to supporting every speaker who submits a proposal\.

However, if you are selected as a speaker, we will be recording all sessions and making them available after the event\. ## Key Dates - Deadline for submissions: Midnight UK time, 14 October 2026 - Notifications sent: 01 November 2026 - Event date: Saturday 27 February 2027 ## Submit your talk proposal ## Meet the organiser Better known as Crowdhailer online, I've been coding for over a decade\. As an early contributor to Gleam, I've always been excited about the possibilities that Gleam offered to the coding community\. When I am not using Gleam in production, I'm working on my own language, EYG\. See you in 2027?
