What does your ideal developer event look like? 👀 At GitHub Universe 2025, we’re building it. Returning to Fort Mason Center in San Francisco this October, Universe will be bigger, bolder, and more interactive than ever before. In addition to 100+ expert-led sessions (our full session catalogue drops in early September), you’ll find nine unique spaces designed to spark creativity, connection, and a lot of joy — whether you’re building LEGOs, networking with peers, or exploring new career resources.
In this blog, we’re breaking down everything you can do on-site so you can start thinking about how you’ll spend your time. Let’s dive in.
If you haven’t snagged an in-person pass yet, you’re in luck: You can still save $400 with our Early Bird discount until September 8. Better yet, buy 3 or more passes and get 25% off, or 8 or more passes and get 35% off. (You can even combine our $400 off Early Bird offer with either group discount for more savings!)
Go beyond the keynotes and sessions to explore GitHub’s latest tools with help from the people who know them best. If you’re curious about what’s new or want to go deep on the tools you already use, Universe is packed with opportunities to level up. Here’s where to start:
After the morning keynotes, head over to GitHub Central, where you’ll find live demos, customer stories, and product journeys aligned to our three content tracks — all designed to help you build more efficiently, securely, and creatively with GitHub.
You’ll explore GitHub Copilot, GitHub Actions, GitHub Advanced Security, and more. With a mix of self-guided stations, live sessions with GitHub experts, and fun surprises, GitHub Central is your hub for discovery and inspiration.
Whether you’re an enterprise architect or just getting started with automation, you’ll leave with practical ideas and trusted strategies to bring back to your team.
The GitHub Expert Center is your go-to for technical deep dives, quick advice, and 1:1 conversations. From specialists in AI and GitHub Actions, to security to scaled adoption, our GitHub experts are on-site and ready to answer all your GitHub product questions.
Getting help is easy; you can book an appointment ahead of time or stop by in between your sessions.
The future of software is being shared, shaped, and supported by the people behind the code. If you’re interested in joining us at Universe to sharpen your skills, expand your network, or prep to find your next big opportunity, this is the place to start:
In the Open Source Zone, you can connect with contributors, maintainers, and community leaders from around the globe. Discover rising stars from the GitHub Accelerator program, learn from Maintainer Community champions, and explore projects that are changing the way the world builds software.
🔎 Take a look at the 10 projects we featured in 2024. (And stay tuned for the projects we’ll be inviting this year!)
Looking to take the next step in your dev career? Book a 1:1 session with a career coach to get personalized advice on everything, including polishing your resume, optimizing your GitHub and LinkedIn profiles, and helping you prep for your next interview. The Career Corner is here to help you level up with confidence.
Learning isn’t one-size-fits-all. That’s why GitHub Learn brings together tutorials, certifications, and role-based learning paths to help you grow on your terms. Explore content from GitHub, Microsoft Learn, and more to help you build real, job-ready skills designed for developers at every level.
As part of GitHub’s Social Impact program, current students can apply for a 30-minute virtual micro-mentoring session with a GitHub employee ahead of Universe 2025. Sessions will be held from October 20–31, and you’ll get personalized resume feedback, career advice, or skill-building tips from an industry professional. Spots are limited — apply by September 19 for your chance to connect.
At Universe, some of the most memorable moments happen when you’re solving puzzles, swapping stories with someone you just met, or building something weird and wonderful with AI. The spaces below are yours to unwind, experiment, and rediscover the joy of making.
Take a quick break from sessions and connect over shared interests. Recess is your chance to meet fellow attendees or hang out with coworkers who share your non-dev passions, from Lego building to chatting with executives over gelato.
Get your hands working in the most creative way possible! The Makerspace is where code meets art, music, robotics, and beyond. This is your space to play, explore, and reimagine what code can do. No formal training required — just bring your curiosity.
Every in-person ticket includes a hackable badge — designed to be customized and coded. Follow tutorials, get inspired by other hackers, and create a unique piece of hardware art to commemorate your Universe experience.
