How do I plan a meetup/local user group?
The OpenStack community participates in a variety of events, ranging from our twice-yearly Summits organized by the Foundation, to sponsoring major industry events, to supporting regional one-day events and user groups organized by local community leaders.
You can learn more about joining a local user group or starting a new meetup. In Navigating Events, you can learn about the different OpenStack events, from Summits to OpenStack Days, and find the event that's right for you.
