Agentics Day: MCP + Agents Europe 2027
by Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) / The Linux Foundation
The vendor-neutral day for Model Context Protocol and AI agents in production, co-located with KubeCon Europe
About This Event
Agentics Day: MCP + Agents Europe 2027 is a CNCF-hosted, community-driven event on the Model Context Protocol and AI agents, held March 15, 2027 in Barcelona, Spain as a co-located event of KubeCon + CloudNativeCon Europe (March 15–18). MCP is the emerging open standard for connecting AI models with external tools, data and workflows, and it moved under vendor-neutral stewardship when it was donated to the Linux Foundation in December 2025. The call for proposals covers MCP fundamentals and architecture, building MCP servers and clients, security, trust and reliability, extending AI systems with MCP, developer tooling and debugging, production case studies, enterprise integration and governance, performance and scaling, and the protocol roadmap. The format debuted at KubeCon Europe 2026 in Amsterdam as a half-day with more than ten talks.

Topics & Focus Areas
Who Should Attend
- ✓Platform engineering teams
- ✓Site reliability engineers (SREs)
- ✓Infrastructure and security engineers operating agents
- ✓Builders of AI agents, MCP tool servers and integrations
- ✓Open-source maintainers and contributors
- ✓CTOs and heads of platform
Why Attend
Agents only become an enterprise problem when they touch real systems, and MCP is fast becoming the layer that connects them. This is the day in Europe where the platform, SRE and security engineers who will operate agentic workloads on Kubernetes compare production implementations, governance models and failure modes, without a single vendor controlling the agenda. A CTO or head of platform should send the team that will own MCP servers in production: they come back with patterns for authentication, tool governance and scaling, and a line to the people shaping the spec. Talk proposals close October 18, 2026.
Event Features
- ✓MCP fundamentals and architecture
- ✓Building MCP servers and clients; developer tooling and debugging
- ✓Security, trust and reliability for agents
- ✓MCP in production: case studies
