Ruby Community Conference

What is RCC

Ruby people,
one day, one stage

Ruby Community Conference is a one-day, single-track conference for everyone who builds with Ruby - whether you wrote your first puts last month or maintain gems half the world depends on.

It grew out of the Warsaw meetups in 2023 and spent five editions in Warsaw and Cracow. In March 2027 it leaves Poland for the first time and comes to Berlin, keeping what made it work: talks you will want to rewatch, workshops you can actually take home, and a crowd that stays long after the last slide.

01

Workshops

Partner venues around Berlin

The day opens with hands-on workshops in small groups, hosted by people who use the tools in production.
02

Talks

Festsaal Kreuzberg

Then everyone moves to the Festsaal for four presentations on one stage - no parallel tracks, no picking.
03

Afterparty

Festsaal Kreuzberg

The talks end, the conversations don't. Food, drinks and the people you only knew from GitHub, in the same hall.

Our journey began with the Warsaw Meetup series, where a shared love for Ruby brought developers together. In July 2023, we celebrated this community with the inaugural Ruby Warsaw Community Conference, welcoming over 100 developers from across Europe.
Two more editions in Warsaw followed, and in 2025 and 2026 Cracow became the stage for our winter editions.

Building on these experiences, we’re excited to announce that on 12 March 2027 we’ll meet in Berlin - our first edition outside Poland, with the same mix of inspiring talks, practical workshops, and exceptional networking.

Get Involved

Workshops

Workshops have been part of every Ruby Community Conference since the first one, and they are the part we are proudest of. Talks give you ideas; a workshop is where you sit down and build something with them.

We organise them the same way every time: on the morning of the conference, several workshops run in parallel at partner venues around the city. They are free for conference ticket holders.

More information - soon!

Where we meet

The Venue

The main hall of Festsaal Kreuzberg set up with rows of chairs facing the stage

Festsaal Kreuzberg
Am Flutgraben 2, 12435 Berlin

Festsaal Kreuzberg sits on the Flutgraben canal, where Kreuzberg meets Treptow. Somewhere between industrial charm and metropolitan flair, it has hosted punk gigs, techno nights, readings and conferences - a proper Berlin venue rather than a hotel ballroom.

It started out in a former market hall near Kottbusser Tor, run by Berlin event organisers from 2004 until a fire gutted the building in 2013, and has since found its new home on Am Flutgraben.

The talks and the afterparty both happen here, so once you arrive you can stay put for the rest of the day.
