There is definitely more to a DrupalCon than the sessions, BoFs and contribution rooms. On top of the usual successful social events like Trivia night, we invite you to organize your own social events. Go ahead and submit your social events. If you have any questions, please contact us via email drupal@kuonitumlare.com

Please note that although most social events are not organized by the conference organizers, all of them are required to operate under the Code of Conduct for the conference. The organizers are not obligated to list all proposed social events.
