CMS Conf is a new conference for people who build websites and digital products on content management systems, launching its first edition under the motto "Where Code Meets Creativity." The programme speaks to CMS developers and platform creators, web product teams and designers, bridging the engineering side of content platforms with the creative work of shaping user-facing experiences. The three-day event runs from 12 to 14 November 2026 in Gdynia, Poland, at the Pomeranian Science and Technology Park (Pomorski Park Naukowo-Technologiczny Gdynia). Organisers expect more than 300 visitors from across Europe. The agenda combines two parallel lecture tracks with hands-on workshops covering web development, UI/UX and visual tools such as Figma, Webflow and Framer, alongside a demo area, an exhibition space and free consultations. Attendees can compare CMS platforms side by side, pick up practical skills in workshop sessions and talk directly with platform representatives and fellow practitioners during networking breaks and the closing afterparty. For a web development conference in Poland's Tricity region, CMS Conf offers a focused meeting point where content architecture, front-end craft and design thinking are treated as one discipline rather than separate silos.

Travel questions? See Good to know in the travel guide below.
Gdynia is the youngest of the three cities that make up Poland's Tricity, built almost entirely in the twentieth century as a modernist port, and it looks nothing like the older Baltic towns beside it. A three-day conference here in mid-November catches the coast at its bleakest and most atmospheric, with a cold sea wind and very short days. Gdańsk and Sopot are both minutes away by commuter train.
Gdańsk Lech Wałęsa Airport (GDN) is the regional gateway, about thirty kilometres from Gdynia, reached by the PKM rail link or by road in roughly forty minutes. The SKM commuter train ties Gdynia, Sopot and Gdańsk together with departures every ten to fifteen minutes and journeys of under half an hour end to end. Long-distance trains from Warsaw take under three hours to Gdynia Główna.

Polish mobile networks are fast and inexpensive, with full coverage across the Tricity corridor. An eSIM arranged before departure is the easiest option for visitors who would otherwise face roaming charges. Set up an eSIM with Airalo before you board and you're online the moment you land.
Emigration Museum. Housed in the former marine station from which Poles departed for the Americas, this museum traces two centuries of emigration through personal documents and reconstructed ship interiors. Genuinely well designed. Around two hours, on the waterfront a short walk from the centre.
Dar Pomorza and ORP Błyskawica. A preserved sail training ship and a Second World War destroyer moored side by side on the main pier, both open to walk through. Together they take about ninety minutes. Wrap up, as much of the visit is on exposed deck in Baltic wind.
Sopot pier. The longest wooden pier in Europe stretches half a kilometre into the Baltic from the neighbouring spa town, ten minutes away by SKM train. It is ticketed in season and quiet in November. An hour including the walk from the station.
Gdańsk Main Town. The reconstructed Hanseatic core of Gdańsk, with its long market street and riverside crane, is twenty-five minutes away by commuter train. It absorbs a full afternoon and is the historic counterweight to modernist Gdynia. Go before dark. Tickets on Tiqets →
How do I move between the Tricity cities?
The SKM commuter rail line connects Gdynia, Sopot and Gdańsk every ten to fifteen minutes. Tickets are cheap and bought at station machines before boarding.
What is the weather like on the Baltic coast in November?
Cold, windy and often wet, with highs around five degrees Celsius. A windproof coat matters more than an umbrella near the water.
Is Polish currency needed?
Poland uses the złoty, not the euro. Cards are accepted almost everywhere, but a small amount of cash is useful for kiosks and some transit machines.
