PyCon Italia is waiting for you! The CFP is finally open!
You have until January 6, 2026 AoE to submit your talk/workshop!
Go to pycon.it/cfp to submit it!
Each speaker may propose a maximum of 3 talks. We do this to allow as many people as possible to have the available slots.
In recent years, the Python programming language has become increasingly popular, ranking as one of the most widely used programming languages. Indeed, the Python programming language is now considered the language of choice for many application domains, such as DevOps, web programming, and Data Science.
In this scenario, the Python community around the world has undergone a continuous process of change over the years, enriching and structuring itself into numerous sub-communities dedicated to a specific area of interest or to the support and development of a specific library.
PyCon Six for the first time provided a space for the various subcommunities of Pythonistas present in Italy and abroad, and now PyCon Italia continues this important work of sharing and collaboration. At the same time, however, PyCon Italia remains, and will continue to be, a conference ready to welcome contributions on the various uses of the Python programming language and on all applications/libraries/application contexts, regardless of whether these may refer to some subcommunity or more generic uses of Python.
There are many reasons why it is worth submitting a proposal to PyCon Italia.
For example, introducing a new topic to the audience, or discussing new developments on a well-known subject; showcasing real-world use cases of the Python programming language on a specific case study; presenting one's Python-powered project, or exploring advanced and relatively unknown details about a module or library.
In short, every reason is a good reason to submit a proposal to PyCon Italia.
As a token of our gratitude, all those selected as speakers for PyCon Italia will benefit from free entry.
Beginner presenters will be especially welcome, and a special support process for presentations will be organized for them.
It will be possible to choose between two types of contributions for PyCon Italia:
Each submitted proposal, regardless of the chosen type, must contain the following information:
Note: The organizers of PyCon Italia request not to submit the same proposal multiple times. This would only create noise, confusion, and complicate the community voting process for talks.
As always, PyCon Italia is happy to welcome and host contributions in English, proposed by speakers from Italy and beyond! Upon submitting a proposal, one may freely choose the language in which to present, namely Italian and/or English.
Do not send the same proposal twice in different languages: it will be canceled.
Python Italia strongly believes in building a truly diverse community, and fully supports the Python diversity statement.
Presenters are therefore required to avoid any kind of sexual, racist, or religious language or imagery in talks, to avoid offending groups that may be underrepresented at the conference.
PyCon Italia is a conference with an audience from a wide geographical area that spans countries and regions with very different cultures. What might be considered a “funny and harmless joke” in one region could be very offensive (if not even illegal) in another. If you wish to add humor, references, and images to your talk, avoid any choices that might be offensive to a group that is different from your own.
Following the established tradition of PyCon Italia, the voting process for presentations is entirely public. Every participant gains the right to vote for the proposed presentations as soon as they confirm their attendance at the conference by purchasing a ticket. See all details on the presentation voting page (accessible at the deadline for proposal submissions).
One of the strengths of the Python programming language has always been its community, and the success of PyCon IT has always been due to this community. If you think you know someone who might be interested in submitting a proposal for the next PyCon, forward them this Call for Proposals. If you intend to promote the PyCon event, you can do so through your social media (#pyconit).
