About Presenting Virtually

Will this be your first time presenting virtually at a conference? We're here to help!

You will pre-record your talk; you won't be presenting it live. We will provide you with instructions and technical help, if you need it, to make your presentation the best it can be.

Proposing to DjangoCon US

Selection process

We’ll choose a selection of talks that we feel add up to the most enjoyable and engaging program for our attendees. Volunteers from the Django community are invited to help us pick talks, and we rely heavily on them to help us select ones that are interesting and beneficial to our attendees. Community volunteers and conference organizers will all be reviewing anonymized submissions and collectively deciding which ones to accept. We’ll publish the list of selected talks as soon as we can after the deadline.

Check out our CFP for example talk and tutorial proposals.

Talks (October 22nd & 23rd)

Length: 25 minutes or 45 minutes

We are looking for original and interesting talks that can benefit the diverse interests of our audience. Don’t feel boxed into Django-centric themes; we also love talks about community, web development, user experience, and more. If you’re a first timer - don’t fret! We would love to be remembered as the conference where you started your speaking career.

Here are some examples of what has been accepted over the last couple of years:
