Our partners
The organizations making DevFest Coimbatore 2026 happen.
Good to know
Answers get added here as each detail is confirmed.
When and where is DevFest Coimbatore 2026?
Saturday, December 12, 2026, in Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu. The venue will be announced on this page.
When do registrations open?
Soon. A “Get your pass” button appears on this page the moment they open.
Why is there a fee?
DevFest Coimbatore uses a commitment fee, as it did in 2025. Paying for your pass confirms your seat, which lets the organizers plan the day around the people who actually come.
Can students attend?
Yes. There is a separate Student pass, and the Anybody Can Build track is there so designers, students and founders feel as welcome as developers.
What will the sessions cover?
Three tracks: Build with Gemini + CCD Cloud, Anybody Can Build and Builders & Creators Academy. See the tracks.
Who can add to the Nano Banana Art Gallery?
Anyone 18 or older, with or without a DevFest pass. Make an image of Coimbatore with Nano Banana, in any style, and read the rules before you send it.
Can I use the gallery's images?
Yes. Every image is released under CC0, so you can use, adapt or sell it without asking. Crediting the contributor is appreciated, not required.
What isn't allowed in the gallery?
Nothing sexual, violent, hateful or communal, no real people, no brands or characters, and nothing made to deceive. An organizer reviews every image before it is published, and anyone can report one afterwards.
