One Night.One Community.Quarter-Century of Impact.
Date and Time: March 24, 2026, 19:00-22:00
Venue: SIX10, 610 South Michigan Avenue (half a block north of DrupalCon’s Hilton Chicago)
For a quarter-century, Drupal has been more than just a software project; it has been a launchpad for careers, a place for lifelong friendships, and a powerful engine driving the Open Web.
To celebrate the 25th anniversary of Drupal during DrupalCon Chicago, we are coming together as one unified community for a night of connection, history, and fun.
To celebrate the 25th anniversary of Drupal during DrupalCon Chicago, we are coming together as one unified community for a night of connection, history, and fun.
We’ll have food, drinks, music, and a few surprises (yes, there will be a Drupal 25th Anniversary beer) as we honor the past, celebrate the present, and shape our future.
- Move, mingle, and graze through curated culinary stations throughout the evening.
- Dress code is “Drupal Fancy” — gowns, black tie or blue suits, and Drupal tees are equally welcome.
- Music, dancing, and a night-long celebration of our shared success.
- A dedicated, lower-volume sanctuary for deep conversation, catching up with old friends, and sharing community stories.
- Inspiring milestone moments honoring the past, present, and exciting future of Drupal.
We built this together. Let's celebrate together.
