Laracon AU 2026

Submissions open through April 17, 2026 · Selected speakers will be notified by May 4, 2026.

Pitch your talk for a chance to share your expertise at Laracon AU 2026.

We welcome speakers from Australia and abroad. Most talk slots will be 30 minutes, with extended 45 minute slots available for deeper content.

In past years we've had amazing talks covering Laravel, Tailwind, Livewire, scaling teams, design, UI, UX, testing, and more.

Laracon AU 2026 places a strong emphasis on depth, real-world constraints, and practical insight. We welcome submissions across technical, product, career, and community topics - especially those grounded in lived experience and thoughtful trade-offs. Clarity and specificity will significantly strengthen your proposal.

Extended 45-minute slots are reserved for talks that require deeper exploration.

All speakers will be offered accommodation in Brisbane, a travel allowance reimbursed after the conference, and a full conference ticket. Our talks are recorded and shared on our website and social media.
