PyTorch Conference 2027
by PyTorch Foundation (Linux Foundation)
The open source AI stack — PyTorch, vLLM, Ray and DeepSpeed — under one roof in San Jose
About This Event
The PyTorch Conference 2027 runs 6-7 October 2027 in San Jose, California, hosted by the PyTorch Foundation under the Linux Foundation. It is the annual gathering for the open source AI stack, described by the organisers as where AI leaders, builders and innovators connect to push the boundaries of open source AI. The 2026 North American edition, held 20-21 October in San Jose, set the template: in-depth technical talks, hands-on workshops and candid conversations spanning training, inference, applications, kernel engineering and responsible AI, drawn from across the PyTorch Foundation's project portfolio — PyTorch, vLLM, DeepSpeed, Ray, Helion and Safetensors — alongside keynotes, a Community Expo and poster sessions. AMD, AWS, Google, Meta and NVIDIA all sponsored that edition. The 2027 programme and pricing have not yet been published.

Topics & Focus Areas
Who Should Attend
- ✓AI/ML engineers
- ✓Platform and infrastructure engineers
- ✓VPs of Engineering and heads of ML platform
- ✓Machine learning researchers
- ✓Open source maintainers and contributors
- ✓Kernel and performance engineers
Why Attend
Almost every enterprise AI stack rests on PyTorch Foundation projects, whether or not anyone chose them deliberately: PyTorch for training, vLLM for serving, Ray for distributed execution, Safetensors for weights. This is the one conference where the maintainers of all of them are in the same building, which matters when your inference bill or your upgrade path depends on a roadmap decision made upstream. For a VP of Engineering the payoff is concrete — hear where the serving runtime is heading before committing to a multi-year GPU contract, and put platform engineers in front of the kernel-engineering work that determines your cost per token.
Event Features

- ✓In-depth technical talks spanning the full AI stack (2026 edition format)
- ✓Hands-on workshops (2026 edition format)
- ✓Community Expo (2026 edition)
- ✓Poster sessions (2026 edition)
- ✓Content areas: training, inference, applications, kernel engineering and responsible AI
- ✓Coverage across PyTorch Foundation projects: PyTorch, vLLM, DeepSpeed, Ray, Helion and Safetensors
What Makes This Unique
- ★Hosted by the PyTorch Foundation, so the programme covers the whole foundation portfolio — PyTorch, vLLM, DeepSpeed, Ray, Helion and Safetensors — rather than a single framework.
- ★Because vLLM and Ray now sit under the same foundation as PyTorch, this is the one event where the training framework, the serving runtime and the distributed execution layer your platform actually runs are discussed by the same maintainers.
- ★Vendor-neutral under the Linux Foundation, with AMD, AWS, Google, Meta and NVIDIA all sponsoring the 2026 edition rather than any one of them owning the stage.
- ★A tight two-day format weighted toward technical depth — kernel engineering and inference sit alongside applications, not in a separate developer-day annexe.
- ★Runs alongside a global PyTorch programme that includes a PyTorch Conference China co-located with KubeCon + CloudNativeCon and the OpenInfra Summit, and regional PyTorch Days.
