PyCon Wroclaw is a community Python conference in Wrocław, Poland, organised by a small volunteer team with a dedicated programme committee and support from the Python Software Foundation. It welcomes Python developers and enthusiasts from across Europe, and all talks are delivered in English. The 2026 edition runs on 20 and 21 November at Concordia Design Wrocław on Słodowa Island, beginning with a pre-conference day followed by the main conference day. The programme mixes talks and workshops on topics such as MLOps with Airflow, real-time collaborative applications, MicroPython, AI agent loops, testing with pytest, the PEP review process, guardrails for agentic coding, message queues and graph analysis with NetworkX, plus a hands-on Raspberry Pi Pico workshop. A separate after-party gives attendees more time to connect. The conference offers a practical blend of data engineering, AI, hardware and core language topics, alongside a financial aid programme to widen access. This Python conference in Poland is a growing meeting point that strengthens the local Wrocław developer scene and links it with the broader European Python community.
PyCon Wroclaw 2026 takes place November 20–21, 2026 in Wroclaw, Poland.
PyCon Wroclaw 2026 is an in-person event.

PyCon Wrocław meets in late November, when the Lower Silesian capital is cold, often damp and dark by mid-afternoon — and at its most atmospheric. Daytime temperatures hover a few degrees above freezing. The Old Town's enormous market square is compact, lamplit and ringed with cellar restaurants, which suits a conference where much of the value happens after the last talk. The city's islands and bridges over the Oder give it a quieter character than Kraków or Warsaw.
Copernicus Airport Wrocław (WRO) is about 20–30 minutes west of the centre, served by a city bus route and by taxis and ride-hailing. Wrocław Główny, the main railway station, is a landmark in its own right and connects to Warsaw, Kraków, Poznań and Berlin. In town, trams cover the centre densely and run late; buy tickets from machines onboard or via a mobile app and validate them.
Skip the taxi queue — pre-book a fixed-price airport transfer with Kiwitaxi. Exploring beyond the city? compare rental cars on EconomyBookings.

Polish mobile networks are fast and cheap, and cafés across the Old Town offer free Wi-Fi. A prepaid eSIM is the easiest option for a short stay, sparing you a roaming bill on a non-EU plan. Set up an eSIM with Airalo before you board and you're online the moment you land.
Rynek and the Old Town Hall. One of Europe's largest medieval market squares, with a Gothic town hall at its centre housing a museum and the historic Piwnica Świdnicka cellar. Late November evenings light it well. An hour to wander, longer if you go inside the museum.
Ostrów Tumski. Cathedral Island, the oldest part of the city, still lit each evening by a lamplighter working the gas lamps by hand. Cross at dusk for the ritual. The cathedral tower has a lift and a view over the river. Allow 90 minutes.
Wrocław's dwarfs. Several hundred small bronze figures are hidden on kerbs, walls and drainpipes across the centre, a legacy of the anti-communist Orange Alternative movement. Pick up a map and treat it as a walking game between sessions — an hour turns into three.
Panorama Racławicka. A 15-by-114-metre 360-degree painting in a purpose-built rotunda, viewed with a timed audio guide. Slots are short and book out, especially in bad weather. Reserve ahead; the visit itself takes about half an hour plus the adjacent National Museum. Tickets on Tiqets →
How cold does Wrocław get in late November?
Expect daytime highs of roughly 2–7°C, damp air, and darkness by mid-afternoon. Bring a warm waterproof coat and gloves.
How do I get from the airport to the centre?
WRO is 20–30 minutes from the Old Town by city bus, taxi or ride-hailing. The bus is cheapest and runs regularly through the day.
Do I need cash in Poland?
Cards, including contactless, are accepted almost everywhere. A small amount of złoty is handy for market stalls and older cellar bars.
