GUADEC is the GNOME community’s annual conference; a week filled with talks, workshops, and networking opportunities. This year, GUADEC is heading to Brescia, Italy, from July 24 to 29!
Ubuntu and GNOME
GNOME powers the Ubuntu Desktop and Ubuntu developers contribute to GNOME on a regular basis. As a supporter of this amazing project, Canonical is a 
silver sponsor of GUADEC 2025. On top of the silver sponsorship, representatives of the Desktop team will join discussions, attend and host sessions, and collaborate with the upstream GNOME project. During the main event days, the Canonical community team is going to staff the very orange booth of Ubuntu, engage with the community, and answer all your burning questions.
