About the event

We're hosting another Laravel meetup - and you're invited. Whether you're building your first CRUD app or architecting enterprise systems, you're welcome here.

The format is simple: a couple of short talks followed by plenty of time for networking. We find that the best conversations happen over a drink, not during a three-hour presentation. So we keep the talks short and the bar open.

This is a social gathering of like-minded developers. No sales pitches, no recruiting booths - just people who care about building reliable web applications and want to share what they've learned.
