Deciding on which conferences to go to in 2025? Here’s a roundup of SRE & DevOps with some useful links, plus a few free events for your calendar. ‘Early bird’ tickets are expiring or expired so commit while you can.
I’ll add videos later and cherry pick a few highlights – so feel free to bookmark this and catch them async. The content’s generally suitable for all cohorts not just SRE, DevOps but includes DevEx and all engineering. Plus, there’s technical and nontechnical tracks so find your comfort level and dive in.
The conferences generally have virtual components so there’s something for everyone where ever you are on our blue planet. Anyway, if you’re not an SRE or DevOps engineer and are just curious about the SRE role there’s useful resources throughout related to SRE & DevOps and more links below (open in new tabs).

Honourable Mentions
- https://www.usenix.org/conference/srecon25americas (paid for event)
- From the looks of things, WTF is SRE ‘is not’ happening this year. A confusing BlogPost with an ‘expired domain‘ to the tLD from container solutions – feels uncertain, which is a shame as there’s some great output produced by those guys at a good price point.
