Igalia is excited to announce that next year’s Web Engines Hackfest will be held Monday June 15th through Wednesday June 17th, 2026, at the Palexco meeting centre in the heart of A Coruña, Galicia, Spain. Mark your calendars now to join us for three days of presentations, attendee-organized breakout sessions, in-depth conversations, and more!

Earlier this year, the Hackfest saw more than 150 browser engineers, code contributors, and interested parties from around the world gather to share new ideas, hash out inconsistencies and other problems, and help each other out. The concentration of the best in the browser biz even led the Web Apps Working Group to hold a face-to-face on site at the Hackfest. The formal talks were all collected into a YouTube playlist, and the breakout sessions as a list of GitHub issues, if you’d like to get more of an idea of what a Hackfest is like. We expect even more from the 2026 edition.

We’ll announce a call for talk proposals and the opening of registration in the future. If you want to get the word when those things happen, you can subscribe to this news feed, or follow the Hackfest on Mastodon or Bluesky, or all three. We’re looking forward to the Hackfest already and hope to see you there!
