IndieWebCamp Düsseldorf 2026, the 10th IndieWebCamp in Düsseldorf 🥳, takes place April 25th & 26th 2026, the weekend before beyond tellerrand conference Düsseldorf 2026.
Add the event to your calendar!
🎪 IndieWebCamp is a two-day collaborative workshop with interactive discussions, brainstorming, creating, hacking, and teaching & helping each other make more and better use of our personal websites for a more fulfilling experience on the web.
1️⃣ Day one, 25 April we’ll do introductions and facilitate discussions in a BarCamp like environment. Bring a topic you'd like to discuss or join on topics as they are added to the schedule grid.
2️⃣ Day two, 26 April is our Create Day when we make, design, build, and code what we discussed. Work in groups with others or on your own. We do demos at the end of the day for everyone to show off what they worked on and made!
See Attending an IndieWebCamp for more details if this is your first time!
Venue
📍 Sia Consulting GmbH, Schwerinstraße 40, Düsseldorf, Germany

Participating
❤️
Code of Conduct
We want every participant to feel welcome and safe. Therefore, please read through and agree to:
If you have any questions or problems regarding these Codes of Conduct, please contact one or more of the #Organizers. 🎟
Tickets
Then grab a ticket to the in-person event here (no ticket needed for remote participation):
As we are closely tied to the Beyond Tellerrand conference they were so kind to let us hand out tickets through them. That's why you'll see a lot of Beyond Tellerrand content on that page. By the way, it's a fantastic conference for digital creators and not really expensive. Check it out!
Bring
Bring your laptop and mobile devices, we’ll help you get setup to both publish where you want, and keep control of your content!
📝
Learn how to use open web services, software, and technologies to empower yourself and – maybe more importantly – encourage all users to own their own content and identities.

Health and Safety
The venue has plenty of space to sit distanced, and windows which we can and will open to provide fresh airflow.
If you are feeling sick or experiencing any respiratory (Covid, RSV, flu, cold) symptoms, we require that you please participate remotely instead of in-person.
😷 Masking 😷 recommended (but not required) both in-person inside the venue, and in transit (airports, flights, trains) to the venue.
Plan to bring N95 (or equivalent) respirator or KN95 (or equivalent like FFP2) masks to wear.
Neither the venue nor the subsequent beyond tellerrand conference has any explicit health and safety rules, however we are recommending masking to help mitigate risks, both for IndieWebCamp participants, and for those we may interact with at Beyond Tellerrand.
Updates: similar to the IndieWebCamp Düsseldorf 2025 Health and Safety policy, this policy is a living policy, and may receive clarifying edits between now and the IndieWebCamp. However, we will not remove or downgrade any aspect of this policy between now and IndieWebCamp Düsseldorf 2026.
