ContainerDays & AI Context Warsaw 2027 is a two-day cloud native conference that brings the ContainerDays format to Poland, pairing a programme on Kubernetes, containers, platform engineering, security and observability with AI Context, a co-located track devoted to the Model Context Protocol and the tooling that connects large language models to real systems. It is aimed at developers, platform and DevOps engineers, software architects and IT leaders who run containerised workloads in production. The event takes place in person in Warsaw on 23 and 24 February 2027. The organisers describe a programme of more than 60 sessions with over 50 international speakers, spread across several stages and combining 30-minute talks, 15-minute lightning talks and hands-on workshops. The call for speakers covers ten tracks, including Go, machine learning and cloud native operations, and stays open until mid-December 2026. Attendees can expect practical, experience-based sessions on operating Kubernetes at scale, building internal developer platforms and bringing AI agents safely into engineering workflows, alongside evening socials and community meetups. For engineers across Central and Eastern Europe, it offers a nearby place to compare notes with peers working on the same infrastructure problems.

ContainerDays & AI Context lands in Warsaw in the last week of February, deep in the Polish winter, when frost and short daylight hours push most life indoors into cafés, milk bars and modern office districts. Warsaw is one of Central Europe's busiest tech hubs, so the cloud native crowd will find plenty of local engineers and meetup communities. The memorable contrast for visitors: a faithfully rebuilt historic Old Town next to a glass-tower skyline around the Palace of Culture and Science.
Warsaw Chopin Airport (WAW) is close to the city; suburban SKM and Koleje Mazowieckie trains link the airport station with central stops such as Warszawa Śródmieście in about 20–25 minutes. Some low-cost flights use Warsaw Modlin (WMI), roughly 40 km north, connected by shuttle bus and train. Long-distance rail reaches Warszawa Centralna from Berlin, Prague, Vienna and Kraków.

Mobile coverage in Warsaw is fast and public Wi-Fi is widespread, and EU roaming rules help visitors from other member states. Travellers from outside the EU can avoid roaming fees by installing an eSIM with a local data allowance before arrival. Set up an eSIM with Airalo before you board and you're online the moment you land.
Old Town and Royal Castle. Destroyed in 1944 and rebuilt from paintings and archives, the Old Town is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Walk from Castle Square to the Market Square in about an hour; in February the streets are quiet and the Royal Castle interiors make a warm, worthwhile stop. Tickets on Tiqets →
Warsaw Rising Museum. This museum tells the story of the 1944 uprising through film, sound and reconstructed spaces. It is emotionally heavy but essential to understanding the city. Plan two to three hours and arrive early, as weekend afternoons get crowded.
POLIN Museum of the History of Polish Jews. Set in the former Jewish district of Muranów, POLIN covers a thousand years of Jewish life in Poland in a striking modern building. The core exhibition alone takes at least two hours, making it a good choice for a cold afternoon. Tickets on Tiqets →
Palace of Culture and Science terrace. The 30th-floor viewing terrace of this Soviet-era tower offers the best panorama of Warsaw's changing skyline. It is near Śródmieście station, so it fits easily into an evening; wrap up warmly, as the terrace is open-air.
How cold is Warsaw in late February?
Daytime temperatures often hover around freezing and nights drop below zero, with occasional snow, so pack a heavy coat, gloves and waterproof shoes.
What currency is used in Poland?
Poland uses the złoty (PLN), not the euro; contactless card payments are accepted almost everywhere, including public transport ticket machines.
Do I need a car in Warsaw?
No. Trams, buses, two metro lines and suburban trains cover the city well, and ride-hailing apps are widely available.
