Here you will find information about upcoming events, as well as information on how to organise your own Apache events. To get started, please make use of the links to the left of the page. ## ApacheCon ApacheCon is the official conference of the Apache Software Foundation. ApacheCon, in common with all Apache events, exists to support, develop and grow our communities. At ApacheCon, current and future users, along with those who build on top of the software produced by the foundation, have the chance to learn from the developers and experts behind our projects, software and community. It provides a chance to expand your knowledge, learn about current and future projects, share what you known on software, development and community, and brings people together to celebrate the best of the foundation and what it produces. Individual ApacheCons have their own dedicated websites. Information on the current/future events should normally be available on the dedicated [ApacheCon site](http://www.apachecon.com/). ### ApacheCon Europe 2012 [ApacheCon Europe 2012](http://www.apachecon.eu/) will take place on the 5th-9th November 2012, in Sinsheim, Germany.
