About
DevOpsDays Zurich is the Swiss stop of the worldwide devopsdays series, a community-run conference for people interested in improving how software is built, delivered and operated. It brings together developers, operations engineers, site reliability engineers, platform teams and managers who want to share practical lessons on culture, automation, cloud infrastructure and collaboration between teams. The 2027 edition runs over two days, 14 and 15 April, at the Alte Kaserne in Winterthur, a short trip from Zurich. The Zurich chapter has held editions every year since 2017, giving the event a well-established local community. As with other devopsdays events, the programme is shaped by its call for proposals, which is handled through Sessionize, and the event is supported by sponsors from the regional technology scene. Attendees can expect talks from practitioners, plenty of hallway conversation and the open, peer-driven atmosphere the series is known for. It is a good place to hear how Swiss and European organisations tackle reliability, platform engineering and delivery at scale, and to meet people solving the same problems. For the DACH DevOps community, this conference near Zurich remains a key annual meeting point for exchanging ideas outside vendor marketing.

Planning your trip to Zurich
Contains sponsored linksDevOpsDays Zurich 2027 lands in mid-April, when the city is shaking off winter: mornings can still be crisp, but longer evenings bring people back to the lakeshore and the terraces along the Limmat. Zurich is a natural home for an operations-minded crowd, with a dense cluster of banking, insurance and big-tech engineering offices. It is also compact and famously punctual, so moving between hotel, venue and an evening in the Old Town rarely takes more than a few tram stops.
Getting there & around
Zurich Airport (ZRH) is one of Europe's best-connected hubs, and the railway station sits directly beneath the terminals. Frequent SBB trains reach Zürich Hauptbahnhof in roughly 10 to 15 minutes, and trams connect onward across the city. Long-distance trains also arrive from Germany, France, Austria and Italy, making rail a comfortable option from much of central Europe. Buy tickets in the SBB Mobile app to skip the machines.
Skip the taxi queue — pre-book a fixed-price airport transfer with Welcome Pickups. Exploring beyond the city? compare rental cars on EconomyBookings.
Staying connected
Swiss networks are fast and coverage is excellent, including on trains and in most tunnels. Switzerland is outside the EU, so EU roaming allowances often do not apply; an eSIM avoids surprise charges. Set up an eSIM with Airalo before you board and you're online the moment you land.
After the sessions
Lindenhof and the Altstadt. The tree-lined Lindenhof terrace gives a quick overview of the Old Town rooftops, the Limmat and the university on the far bank. From there, wander the lanes down to St. Peter's church, known for its huge clock face, and the twin towers of Grossmünster. An hour on foot covers the highlights before or after sessions.
Lake Zurich boat cruise. Boats leave from Bürkliplatz at the end of Bahnhofstrasse, and even a short round trip gives a relaxing view of the lakeside villages and, on clear days, the Alps. In April the timetable is still ramping up for summer, so check sailings before you go. A short cruise takes about 90 minutes. Tickets on Tiqets →
Kunsthaus Zürich. Switzerland's largest art museum holds a strong collection spanning Swiss painters, French Impressionists and modern works, spread across the original building and the newer Chipperfield extension. It is a good plan for a rainy April afternoon; allow two to three hours and check the late-opening evening. Tickets on Tiqets →
Uetliberg. Zurich's home mountain is about 20 minutes by S-Bahn from the main station, followed by a short walk to the summit. The lookout tower offers panoramic views over the city, the lake and the Alpine chain. Go on a clear evening; trails can be muddy in spring, so bring proper shoes.
Good to know
How do I get from Zurich Airport to the city centre?
Take an SBB train from the station beneath the airport to Zürich Hauptbahnhof, which takes roughly 10 to 15 minutes with several departures per hour. Tram 10 also runs from the airport into the city.
What currency is used in Zurich?
Switzerland uses the Swiss franc (CHF), not the euro. Cards and contactless payments are accepted almost everywhere, though some places take euros at an unfavourable rate.
What is the weather like in Zurich in April?
April is changeable, with cool mornings, mild afternoons and a real chance of rain. Pack layers and a waterproof jacket.
