GStreamer Conference 2025

We're thrilled to announce that the 13th GStreamer Conference is planned (but not confirmed yet!) to take place on Thursday and Friday 23-24 October 2025 in London, UK.

If those dates turn out to not be possible for some reason, Monday/Tuesday 27-28 October 2025 will be our fallback.

There will also a multi-day GStreamer hackfest before or after the conference (including the weekend of the 25-26 October 2025).

In addition, the Foundations of Open Media Standards and Software (FOMS) Workshop 2025 is expected to take place on Tuesday 28 October 2025, followed by Demuxed 2025, the conference for video devs! Also in London, of course.

Details

The GStreamer Conference is a conference for developers, community members, decision-makers, industry partners, researchers, students and anyone else interested in the GStreamer multimedia framework or Open Source and cross-platform multimedia.

Who should attend?

Anyone interested in open source cross-platform multimedia is encouraged to join us at the GStreamer Conference 2025!

Whether you are a hobbyist, app developer, researcher or student interested in the field of multimedia, or working for a company that is using or looking to use GStreamer in their products, this is the perfect event for you to network at and to learn more about the latest technological developments and project news, and to meet developers as well as the wider community.

Registration

There will be separate registration options for professionals, speakers and for students and hobbyists:

Professional (Regular)	to be determined + ca. 20% VAT + fees
Professional (Supporter)	to be determined + ca. 20% VAT + fees
Speakers (for non-lightning talks)	Free (instructions will be sent by e-mail)
Student/Hobbyist	Free or voluntary donation

All tickets include lunch at the venue on both conference days as well as access to the evening social event.

For those uncertain about whether to register as a professional or hobbyist, the general rule is that if your company pays for your travel or sponsors you, you are a professional, and if you personally pay you are a student or hobbyist. If in doubt drop us a mail or just register as hobbyist. The important thing is that you'll make it to the conference!

Speakers: You will receive free registration! Details will be sent out by e-mail along with the talk acceptance notifications or shortly thereafter. Not that we will complain if you decide to buy a ticket of course.

Schedule and speakers list

This will be published at a later date once the inital Call for Presentations round has closed.

Check out last year's schedule to get an idea about the kind of speakers and topics to expect.

GStreamer hackfest

There will again be a multi-day hackfest before or after the conference, including the weekend of 25-26 October 2025.
