About
Moldova DevCon is an annual developer conference organised by FusionWorks and billed by its organisers as the largest developer gathering in Moldova. It targets software developers and wider tech enthusiasts, with a programme covering AI and machine learning, cloud native technology, security, developer experience, Rust, frontend engineering, distributed systems, open source and platform engineering. The 2026 edition is scheduled for 6–7 November at Chișinău Arena, with a pre-party the evening before. Content is spread over multiple stages, including a main stage and a dedicated workshop stage, and speakers come from a mix of international technology companies and the regional engineering scene. As a developer conference 2026 in Chișinău, it gives Eastern European engineers a sizeable event without travelling to larger Western hubs. Participants can attend talks, join hands-on workshops on higher ticket tiers, and watch a debate-style session on artificial intelligence. Social elements such as an afterparty and a wine and tech dinner give the event a relaxed character that encourages networking. For Moldova's growing IT sector, Moldova DevCon serves as a showcase of local talent and a bridge to international practice and expertise.

Travel questions? See Good to know in the travel guide below.
Planning your trip to Chișinău
Contains sponsored linksChisinau is one of Europe's least-visited capitals, and that is much of its appeal: wide Soviet-era boulevards, generous parkland and a developer scene growing around the country's IT park. Early November brings temperatures around 5-11C and the tail end of the wine harvest season, which in Moldova is a genuinely significant event. The city is small enough that attendees will cover most of it on foot over two days.
Getting there & around
Chisinau International Airport (KIV) sits 13km south-east of the centre, roughly 20 to 30 minutes by taxi or the number 165 bus. Direct flights connect mainly to European hubs including Vienna, Istanbul and Bucharest. Long-distance buses arrive from Iasi and Odesa. In the city, trolleybuses and minibuses cover the main routes cheaply, and ride-hailing apps operate reliably.
Skip the taxi queue — pre-book a fixed-price airport transfer with Kiwitaxi. Exploring beyond the city? compare rental cars on EconomyBookings.
Staying connected
Moldova is outside the EU roaming zone, so European SIMs incur charges here. Local networks are fast and inexpensive, and a data eSIM activated on arrival is the simplest way to avoid unexpected bills. Set up an eSIM with Airalo before you board and you're online the moment you land.
After the sessions
Cricova underground winery. A vast network of limestone tunnels north of the city, converted into cellars where roads run between the storage galleries. Tours travel by electric train and include tastings. Book ahead as visits are guided only. Temperature underground stays near 12C. Half a day including transport.
Stefan cel Mare Central Park. The green heart of the capital, centred on a statue of Moldova's fifteenth-century ruler and lined with chess players and book stalls. It is the natural place to gauge the city's rhythm. Autumn leaf colour peaks around early November. Forty-five minutes, adjacent to most central hotels.
Orheiul Vechi. A cave monastery cut into a limestone cliff above the Raut river, about an hour north-east of the city. Monks still occupy part of the complex, and the surrounding landscape is open and windswept. Weekday visits are near-empty. Allow a full half-day with a driver or organised tour.
Good to know
Do EU roaming rules apply in Moldova?
No. Moldova is outside the EU roaming zone, so standard EU SIM cards incur international charges. A local prepaid plan or travel eSIM is considerably cheaper.
What currency is used?
The Moldovan leu. Cards are widely accepted in central Chisinau hotels and restaurants, but cash is still expected at markets, smaller cafes and for rural transport.
Is a car needed to visit the wineries?
Not necessarily. Cricova and Milestii Mici run organised tours with transport from the city, and taxis or ride-hailing cover the short distances affordably. Self-driving is unnecessary for a conference trip.
