Zigtoberfest, launched in 2024, is a conference focused on sharing experience and knowledge among the Zig community. This event is a fantastic chance to connect with like-minded individuals from the Zig community and share your passion for programming.
The Name Zigtoberfest is a combination of the words Zig (the programming language) and Oktoberfest, as the event takes place in Munich. It was coined by Rene during a discussion on Discord.

Rene is without a doubt an integral part of the Zig community. You probably know him as the one who renders his slide shows at 16k FPS (lnkd.in/dj9e8n7Z) or as the author of Zap (lnkd.in/d3UvtwqV), a blazingly fast micro-framework for web applications. At #Zigtoberfest 2025 he'll share his experience in running a company on the command-line with #Zig, #LaTeX, #Git, and Zap ⚡. Get your ticket now at zigtoberfest.de/ !
