Menlo Park, California
GraphQLConf 2026

WG Day

hosted by

A day for GraphQL working group members and maintainers of key GraphQL open source software to socialize, strategize, and build on the momentum of the main conference.

Date:

Time: 9:30 AM-4:30 PM PT

Location: Meta MPK 21, Menlo Park

What it is

WG Day is a low-overhead in-person collaboration day right after GraphQLConf. There is no fixed schedule, no recording, and no formal programming. This unstructured format is deliberate: it is equally valid to spend the day diving deep on proposals, planning across groups, or simply socializing and getting to know each other.

Attendance

Capacity is limited, so invitations will go to regular working group participants first. Additional attendees can join via a waitlist, with priority for maintainers of GraphQL-related open source software (clients, servers, libraries, frameworks, tooling, and documentation), plus board members and ambassadors. Room capacity is 48.
