Why Prague is the Perfect Location for Flock to Fedora

How did we decide on Prague from June 5th to 8th, 2025? After listening to the community feedback in the Flock 2024 feedback survey, we decided to try some new ideas for Flock to Fedora 2025:

  • Flock will take place one week prior to DevConf CZ in Brno, Czechia. This makes it possible and convenient for planning travel to both events.
  • Prague is a well-connected European city by air, rail, and bus, which allows for a diverse range of travel options for attendees.

Prague is also a city renowned for its rich history, stunning architecture, and vibrant culture. It is the perfect backdrop for a conference focused on building the future of open source Linux together. Prague offers excellent conference facilities, easy accessibility, and a wealth of cultural attractions for attendees to enjoy.
