Announcing Meeting C++ 2026
by Jens Weller
From the article:
We'll be meeting from the 26th - 28th November in Berlin! You have the unique chance to spend the 1st advent in Berlin with C++ and Christmas Markets open!
With Mateusz Pusz and Kate Gregory I've chosen two well known speakers for the keynotes this year. Mateusz is well known for his units library, which currently also is proposed for the standard. It is also an important contribution to making C++ more safe and secure, the big topic of last year. Then Kate Gregory will be visiting us in Berlin again, she is known for her ability to create great talks around technical and social aspects in our daily lives as devs. You might remember her from giving a keynote in 2017, or speaking about the aging programmer two years ago.
For the 15th time Meeting C++ will organize a great event for 3 days filled with lots of content about C++, like last year the plan is to host 3 tracks in parallel in Berlin, with an optional 4th track. The 4th track will be unlocked either by sponsorships or ticket sales. You can be a part of this great C++ event by attending onsite and online. There is already great news for onsite attendees: Hudson River Trading is again this years t-shirt sponsor, a great and unique Meeting C++ 2026 t-shirt is an exclusive perk for onsite attendees!
What a year I had! One more conference, one more trip report! I had the chance to go to Meeting C++ and give not just one but two talks!
The Budapest C++ Meetup was a great reminder of how strong and curious our local community is. Each talk approached the language from a different angle — Jonathan Müller from the perspective of performance, mine from design and type safety, and Marcell Juhász from security — yet all shared the same core message: understand what C++ gives you and use it wisely.
In this final part of the tuple-iteration mini-series, we move beyond C++20 and C++23 techniques to explore how C++26 finally brings first-class language support for compile-time iteration. With structured binding packs (P1061) and expansion statements (P1306), what once required clever template tricks can now be written in clean, expressive, modern C++.
A long-delayed dream finally came true: after years of near-misses and lessons learned (“better to be invited than sent”), I made it to CppCon—and it was bigger, louder, and more inspiring than I imagined. In this recap I share the vibe of the week, five standout talks and ideas, a few notes from my own session, and links to recordings as they appear.
