Come join our community of people interested in and working with the Python programming language. We meet up in the city of Leiden, The Netherlands. Exchange experiences and learn from others on the topic of the most popular programming language!

We meet up once every two months. The meetups are low profile, not commercial, and open to both professionals and enthusiasts.

At this meeting, we have one talk planned so far and are looking for more, see below:

**Talk 1: Simple perfect setup: Handy task runner for data projects. Prefect.io** by Reinout van Rees
This is a reprise of Reinouts talk at PyUtrecht in November 2025, which he gladly offers to do again for us in Leiden.

**Meeting format**
Our meetings will have presentations with room for discussion, and we will make sure there's also opportunity to meet and get to know your fellow group members.

**About our meetups**
Our talks happen in a friendly and informal setting. They are a great way to learn new things, share your knowledge, and meet other Python enthusiasts. There is always room for questions and discussion. Our presentations and talks are in English to be accessible for the large amount of non-Dutch speakers in the Python community.

**Call for talks**
We'd invite you to propose a talk for either this or future meetings. Talks can be short or longer, they can include a live demo or a hands-on lab. It does not matter if you're not a highly experienced speaker. Meetup groups like this are great for building out your skills.

**Meeting venue**
Our meeting will take place at the “[Technolab](https://www.technolableiden.nl/)”, an organization that offers science education for children and teenagers. We’ll be using the big meeting room, while the people from “[The Space Leiden](https://spaceleiden.nl/)”, a local hacker/makerspace, will also be present in the building. The Space will be open starting 19:00.
Our food sponsor [Samotics](https://samotics.com) is providing free pizza. If you don't care for pizza, you can also skip those and arrive at 20:00.
Our location can be tricky to find for first-timers, please check the page on our website [here](https://pythonleiden.nl/how-to-reach-us.html).
