CFP closed on February 28th. We appreciate the enormous interest and are excited to create a memorable program for the final RailsConf!

The Last RailsConf?

RailsConf is the world’s longest-running gathering for the Rails community. Since 2006, we have brought together developers and enthusiasts of all levels alongside top community voices and representatives from the world’s leading companies and startups built on Ruby and Rails.

After nearly 20 years, RailsConf 2025 will be the final gathering of its kind—a tribute to the legacy and future of Rails and the community members who have been part of this journey with us. We hope you'll join us for this last celebration!

Our Host City

Philadelphia, PA

Philadelphia is an incredibly special city. You can walk the streets where the nation was born, visit iconic sites like the Liberty Bell, and explore beautiful historic neighborhoods. Philly is also a food lover’s paradise, home to the legendary cheesesteak, hoagies, and the root beer float. Whether you're exploring its rich history, enjoying its food with your Ruby friends, or just soaking in the unique vibe, Philly has it all—and it’s waiting for you!

This is the Only RubyCentral Event in 2025
(No RubyConf)

As part of a strategic shift, RailsConf 2025 will be the only conference hosted by Ruby Central in 2025. This means there will be no RubyConf in 2025, but we are looking forward to RubyConf 2026, which will take place in the spring and become our flagship event. 

By concentrating on one conference per year, we can create a truly best-in-class experience for our attendees while ensuring Ruby Central’s long-term sustainability and dedicating more resources to our Open Source Program. Additionally, we’re committed to supporting more regional events and grassroots community efforts.

While we bid farewell to RailsConf, we want to reassure the community that Rails will continue to have a presence at future events. Although we haven’t solidified programming for future RubyConfs, our current plans are to include a Rails track at RubyConf 2026 and beyond.
