London/2024 events
Welcome to the list of OpenStreetMap related events in London for 2024
These events are free and open to all. We normally have a mixture of old OpenStreetMap hands and new people coming along to find out more. The events might include mapping, or might include "Q&A" presentations, but mostly we're just sitting around (in a pub?) having a friendly chat about little things like mapping the world and releasing it for free! We hope you'll join us! Everyone and anyone is welcome.
Upcoming Events
No more events upcoming in 2024. Stand by news of the first event of 2025!
Humanitarian mapping events are happening fairly regularly. This page is not going to be the best place to stay up-to-date with those. Follow Missing Maps London on eventbrite. For a long time they were having two events per month, but maybe not since the pandemic.
Future events
We'll use this wiki page to announce events, as well as 
@OSMLondon/.svg){kind=small}
@OSMLondon@en.osm.townAnnouncements may come at short notice!
There’s lots of other events in London e.g. tech meet-up groups, for which OpenStreetMap is relevant. Please use the wiki to pro-actively coordinate the setting up of an “OpenStreetMap presence” at these events… or just go along (Other OSMers may or may not be there)
We’ve got a rather out-of-date list of London event venues for future events of a non-pub format. Please add to that if you have ideas or if your organisation would like to host or sponsor an event!
