Longhorn PHP Conference 2026 runs October 15–16.

The 2026 conference takes place at Holiday Inn Austin Midtown in Austin, Texas.

The organizer identifies developers, including junior developers, experienced programmers, and PHP developers, as audience groups.

It is most useful for working PHP developers, from juniors to experienced programmers, who want a regional, community-run event where the focus is on improving their craft rather than on vendor pitches. Sponsors such as Datadog and Private Packagist and a hiring sponsor make it a reasonable place to meet employers and tool providers, but developers who work in other languages, or who want a large multi-track national show, would get less from it.

Developers at community PHP conferences typically dress casually, in jeans and a t-shirt or a conference shirt, and Austin's warm climate reinforces that.
