Welcome to GNOME 43 Release and 25th Birthday Parties!

GNOME's 25th anniversary just happened on August 15th, 2022, and with the GNOME 43 release on Sept 21, there's no better way to celebrate than to throw a release + birthday party combo! On this page, GNOME community members from all over the world can plan to celebrate together for our GNOME 43 release and/or 25th Anniversary!

Why?

  • To celebrate the 25th anniversary of GNOME and the release of GNOME 43 together and recognize all of the hard work that has gone into making GNOME what it is today
  • To spread awareness of what GNOME is to the broader public, help newcomers meet the community, and get people talking about the 25-year-long history of GNOME

Who?

Anybody can hold a 25th Birthday party / GNOME 43 release party, including individual enthusiasts, user groups, FOSS communities, distro communities, universities, NGOs, companies, etc.

When?

GNOME's 25th Birthday took place on August 15th, 2022 and the GNOME 43 release on September 21, 2022. Hosting a party in September is ideal.
