Virtual Fox Fest 2025 (May): Last call and Save the Date!

Virtual Fox Fest 2025 (May) is on Wednesday, May 7, 2025. If you plan to attend the conference, please register today. It only takes a couple of minutes, and we only get busier the closer we get to the conference. https://geekgatherings.com/Registration

We’re excited to offer you Virtual Fox Fest 2025 (Oct), a two-day online conference presenting the latest in Microsoft Visual FoxPro development techniques and interoperability with other technologies. This conference provides a venue for VFP developers to come together virtually to learn more about how our fellow developers are using and extending VFP. 

The conference will take place on October 29th and 30th, 2025 on RingCentral Events.

Unfortunately, given the current situation in the United States (especially at the US border) and knowing that a significant percentage of conference attendees come from outside the US, we don’t think running an in-person event this fall is practical. Instead, we are planning a virtual event this fall and hope that things improve in time for a Fall 2026 event. Stay tuned for our Call for Speakers in the coming weeks.
