Future Frontend is a single track conference series focused on examining the current trends in the space of frontend development. It brings together bright minds curious about what is to come.
The fourth edition takes place 8-9 of June, 2026 (Dipoli, Espoo, Finland) while the workshops are held 10-12 of June, 2026 around Helsinki.
Quality over quantity🔗
Historically our events have been small (up to 300 people for React Finland) and we tend favor quality over quantity in both terms of content and attendees. Our single track format, ample breaks, and additional program allow you to gain understanding of what is going in the field while gaining new acquaintances, or even friends.
Who is coming to the conference🔗
Future Frontend attracts senior level developers and designers. Roughly half of our attendees are local while the rest join us from abroad making Future Frontend and international conference with a Finnish twist. Although some of the topics might be heavy, our approach is light and atmosphere relaxed.
If you are coming from abroad, it is not uncommon to combine the trip with a bit of sightseeing or a trip to a cottage as it is likely the best time to visit Finland as it is reasonably warm and you will miss some of the mosquitoes.
Atmosphere of Future Frontend🔗
To get some idea of the atmosphere of our conference, consider the videos below. 2025 edition took place at Dipoli, 2024 was held at Paasitorni, and the 2023 edition took place at Pörssitalo.
Conference format🔗
One of the aspects that makes Future Frontend unique in its category is the format we use for the event. Over the two days of the event, we run eight themed sessions with two speakers although occasional exceptions are allowed. Each session gets a 1.5 hour slot and usually this means two talks and a panel on the topic. This means there's enough time to get into detail and to address your questions.
Beyond this, we have made sure you have enough time to recharge during breaks as for some people the hallway track is the best part of the conference as you get to meet other developers. On top of this, we take care to organize more unofficial program after conference days with our partners. In 2025, we went to sauna for example.
A quote from 2023 attendee puts it well what the conference is all about:
It was great, I enjoyed it so much. Helsinki was awesome. I realized that I live in bubble doing always the same apps and that there are also other use-cases and approaches. - Marek
Themes for 2026🔗
The themes for 2026 are yet to be decided although you can expect a mixture of technical and softer topics.
Venue🔗
The conference is held at Dipoli, the main building of Aalto University. It is convenient to reach the venue from Helsinki using public transport and there are good accommodation options nearby.
