About
DevOpsDays Portugal 2026 is the Portuguese edition of the worldwide devopsdays series, community-organised conferences for anyone interested in improving how software is built, delivered and operated. This edition is a joint effort with KCD Porto 2026, a Kubernetes Community Days event, bringing the DevOps and cloud native communities together under one roof with support from the DevOps Porto community. The conference runs on 19 and 20 November at Super Bock Arena, Pavilhão Rosa Mota, in Porto. Its programme covers DevOps practices, Kubernetes, platform engineering, cloud native technologies, site reliability engineering and AI, presented through keynotes, technical deep dives, hands-on sessions and talks from practitioners. Previous Portuguese editions took place in 2019, 2022 and 2024, and the event draws strong backing from local meetup groups. Engineers, developers, SREs, platform teams and technology leaders can expect practical lessons, real operational stories and ample time to network with peers from Portugal's growing tech scene. This DevOps conference in Porto matters as a shared space where operations and cloud native practitioners compare notes and strengthen the regional community.

Planning your trip to Portugal
Contains sponsored linksDevOpsDays Portugal 2026 meets in Porto in late November, when the city settles into its quieter season: cool, often damp days, early dusk over the Douro and far fewer tourists in the old town. The venue, the domed Super Bock Arena – Pavilhão Rosa Mota, stands inside the Jardins do Palácio de Cristal, gardens that look down over the river toward the port-wine lodges of Vila Nova de Gaia. It is an easy, walkable base for a community event built around open spaces and hallway conversations.
Getting there & around
Francisco Sá Carneiro Airport (OPO) is connected to central Porto by Metro do Porto Line E (violet), taking around 30 minutes, or by taxi and ride-hail in about 20–25 minutes. From the centre, the Palácio de Cristal gardens are a walk of roughly 15–20 minutes west of Aliados and São Bento station, partly uphill. Lisbon is around three hours away by Alfa Pendular train if you combine trips.
Skip the taxi queue — pre-book a fixed-price airport transfer with Kiwitaxi. Exploring beyond the city? compare rental cars on EconomyBookings.
Staying connected
Mobile data is fast and inexpensive across Porto, and EU roaming rules cover visitors with European plans. Travellers from outside the EU can install an eSIM ahead of the trip to stay connected from arrival. Set up an eSIM with Airalo before you board and you're online the moment you land.
After the sessions
Jardins do Palácio de Cristal. The gardens around the venue are worth exploring between sessions: terraced paths, roaming peacocks and viewpoints over the Douro that are especially atmospheric at late-November sunset. Twenty minutes is enough for a quick loop; the river viewpoint on the southern edge is the highlight.
Port wine cellars in Vila Nova de Gaia. Cross the Dom Luís I Bridge to the lodges along the Gaia riverfront, where many houses offer guided cellar tours and tastings lasting about an hour. Weekday afternoons in the off-season are calm, and booking ahead secures English-language tours. Tickets on Tiqets →
Livraria Lello and Clérigos Tower. Two of Porto's best-known landmarks sit close together near the university district. Lello's ornate staircase draws long queues, so book an early timed ticket; then climb Clérigos Tower for a panoramic view over the terracotta rooftops, around an hour for both. Tickets on Tiqets →
Ribeira waterfront. The UNESCO-listed riverside quarter of colourful facades and narrow stairways is the natural place for an evening meal after the conference. In November the terraces are less crowded; try a francesinha, Porto's hearty signature sandwich, in one of the side streets.
Good to know
What is Porto's weather like in late November?
Expect cool temperatures, typically around 10–16 °C, with frequent rain from Atlantic weather systems. A waterproof jacket and shoes with grip for the steep, cobbled streets are recommended.
How do I get from Porto airport to the DevOpsDays venue?
Take Metro Line E into the city centre in about 30 minutes, then walk or take a short taxi to the Palácio de Cristal gardens. A taxi or ride-hail directly from the airport takes roughly 20–25 minutes.
Do I need a car in Porto?
No. The historic centre is compact and served by metro, buses and trams, and parking is limited; a car only makes sense for day trips into the Douro Valley.
