Novotel Hyderabad Airport | Nov 22, 2026

GopherCon India

India’s Go conference returns as a single-track day for developers, builders, and teams working with Go in production.

01 / Community

The Go community, one room.

GopherCon India is brought together by the Go Language Community and Emerging Technology Trust, the non-profit team behind several developer conferences in India.

02 / Single Track

No choosing between talks.

The conference is designed as a single-track event, so every attendee gets the same curated lineup of sessions and shared hallway conversations.

03 / Go In Practice

Production problems, Go answers.

Cross-compilation, authorization checks, MCP servers, concurrency, observability, payments, databases, WebAssembly, and runtime performance all show up in the program.

04 / Hyderabad

Airport-adjacent, one-day focused.

The 2026 event is listed for Novotel Hyderabad Airport in Hyderabad, running from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM on November 22.
