The Call for Papers for JavaLand 2026 closed at midnight on September 17. Now it’s time to share some facts and figures with you!

First of all, we would like to take this opportunity to thank all submitters for their contributions! We are delighted that you wish to help shape JavaLand 2026 at Europa-Park, and are keeping our fingers crossed that your contribution will be accepted. 

A total of almost 500 presentations were submitted across 12 subject areas (plus an “unassigned” option for speakers who were unsure which category their contribution belonged to). Over the coming weeks, the program committee and its evaluators will review and evaluate all submissions and select the gems for the program. Stay tuned! The program is expected to be published in mid-November.
