Devoxx Belgium 2026 will once again transform Antwerp into the meeting place for developers, architects, builders, and innovators shaping the future of software engineering.
One thing is becoming increasingly clear: we are entering a new era where developers are evolving into builders. AI Agents, autonomous workflows, Spec-Driven Development, and ever more capable coding assistants are fundamentally reshaping how software is designed, built, reviewed, and maintained.
From multi-agent architectures (A2A) and Model Context Protocol (MCP) to local LLM clusters, GPU inference, and next-generation Java AI libraries, Devoxx Belgium 2026 will explore a future where humans and intelligent systems collaborate side by side.
With Java 27 expected around the time of Devoxx Belgium 2026, the Java ecosystem continues to prove why it remains at the heart of modern software development. As innovation accelerates around concurrency, performance, cloud-native development, and AI integration, Java is evolving into a powerful foundation for the next generation of intelligent software systems.
Under the theme “FROM DEVELOPER TO BUILDER”, Devoxx Belgium 2026 will explore the rise of Agentic Engineering, AI-powered software creation, local and cloud-based AI ecosystems, intelligent developer tooling, and the evolving role of developers in an age where software increasingly builds software itself.
The future is not about replacing developers.
It’s about giving builders superpowers.
But Devoxx has never only been about technology. It’s about community. Thousands of passionate developers, speakers, sponsors, and technology leaders will once again come together in Antwerp to exchange ideas, share knowledge, and help shape what comes next.
See you in Antwerp for Devoxx Belgium 2026.

Devoxx, a series of technology conferences, is held in various countries including Belgium, France, the UK, Poland, Morocco, and Greece. Additionally, VoxxedDays (a Devoxx incubator) is organized in various locations globally (including CERN ⚛).
Each year, Devoxx welcomes over 20,000 passionate developers from around the world to learn, share, and connect through its events.

The language that runs the world. All things Java: language updates, the JVM, tooling, and the ever-evolving ecosystem.

Dev wellness, leadership, team dynamics, inclusion, and the human-centered side of software, including accessibility and design thinking.

From no-code to agentic workflows and intuitive UI tools, where new ways of building meet expressive, user-focused design.

Designing systems – and the minds that run them. From microservices to multi-agent systems (A2A, ADK, secure MCP, …), structure, scale, and intelligence.

From prompts to platforms. Dive into LLMs, RAG, agents, embeddings, and the generative future of software.

Craft, test, ship, repeat. From clean code to CI/CD, testing, tooling, and modern dev methodologies.

Trust nothing. Secure everything. Defensive engineering, application security, secure protocols, and zero trust in practice.

Weird, wild, and wonderfully technical. Quantum, robotics, cybernetics, indie projects, and the bleeding edge of curiosity.

Powering the modern backend. Frameworks and libraries for scalable, secure, and efficient Java backends.
