Events

Tours Ubuntu Party

  • The first Tours / La Riche Ubuntu Party takes place 23th. January 2016. It was a great event with booths, lectures, workshops, demonstrations, games and of course an install party. Read more

Paris Ubuntu Party

  • The Paris Ubuntu Party edition is our biggest event. Twice a year, we organise an Ubuntu Party at the Carrefour Numérique², the FabLab of the Cité des sciences et de l'Industrie (the Paris Science Center). During the whole week-end, people can discover Ubuntu and free software with 14 hours of lectures, 10 hours of courses, 10 hours of workshops,...

  • This event had welcomed between 2.000 and 3.000 guests by edition in 2015/2016.

  • Lectures : we have a fully equiped room designed for talks. The talks are about various subjects from Ubuntu specific projects to more global free software presentations or even lectures about the Internet neutrality or about private life and data protection. We try to make those subjects as attractive as possible by inviting special guests like Benjamin Bayart(French Data Network).

  • Courses : we have a dedicaced classroom with a computer on the latest Ubuntu release for each participant. We can teach how to take in hand the new Unity, browse the Internet, contribute to Ubuntu, use OpenStreetMap, try the basics of CLI.

  • Demos : we have different areas with demonstrations such as "free try" (Ubuntu desktops); "gaming"; "technologies showcase" (Ubuntu Phone,...).

  • Marketing: we make a 10x10cm flyer to spread ours events. 10 000 copies are distributed particularly in the cultural spaces of Paris.

  • Install Party: As usual, we have our Install Parties. It's about ~100 installed machines a day with Ubuntu.

Some others Ubuntu Parties

To promote each Ubuntu release, the French community organizes events called "Ubuntu Party" in collaboration with Linux User Groups (LUG). These events can be:

  • a simple restaurant gathering where users meet;

  • an install party to help people upgrade, install or use Ubuntu;

  • courses and workshops on Ubuntu and on free software;

  • lectures on Ubuntu, free software, free culture.

Examples :

  • Tremblay

Libre en fête

Ubuntu Hours

An Ubuntu Hour is a local community gathering. We try to promote Ubuntu Hours by frequently hosting this type of event in Paris. So far, it is working well there, but not as well in other cities where similar events are already being held. The Parisian community tries to encourage other local communities on the way to more events like those ones.

Focus on the main events

  • Vieilles Charrues (Brittany)

The Vieilles Charrues festival is one of the biggest French music festival. (278 000 festival-goers in 2016)
During the festival, Ubuntu-Fr hosts its own booth where we provide Internet access through our Ubuntu Webcafé : 12 fully-equipped computers that were bought on purpose and are at festival-goers' disposal. The 12 Ubuntu webcafé team members get into action to inform people and answer questions about Ubuntu or about free software in general. We provided showcase of the Ubuntu Phone and the Ubuntu Tablet. We also have goodies and this year we had flyers too. To attract more festival-goers, we also offer temporary tattoos (CoF & Tux). We take pictures to be put on our dedicated website. That way, people can have their "tattooed" picture and share them. For the four days of the festival, our booth represents about 1.000 people reached per day, 4.000 people tattooed and 3.000 flyers handed out without counting artists and all the backstage staff such as coocks, security guards or technicians.
