🚨 Contribfest: OpenTelemetry Contribfest
Wednesday April 2, 2025 16:15 - 17:30 BST
We are bringing the OpenTelemetry ContribFest to Europe! This hands-on session is the perfect opportunity for new contributors to dive into one of the most impactful open-source projects in observability. Guided by maintainers from across the project—spanning the Collector, Go, Java, JavaScript, and more—you’ll receive personalized support to make your first contribution.

Building on the success of previous ContribFests in Chicago and Salt Lake City, this session promises an engaging and supportive environment. As one of the KubeCon staff in Salt Lake City remarked, "It’s the ContribFest where most people stayed until the very end," even when it was scheduled in the last slot on a Friday!

Whether you’re a developer, SRE, or just curious about OpenTelemetry, this session is designed to empower you with the skills and confidence to contribute to open source. No prior experience with OpenTelemetry is required—just bring your laptop and enthusiasm!
