The Electromagnetic Field 2026 Call for Participation is now open!

If you have a talk, installation, workshop, or performance you’d like to bring to EMF, now’s your chance to let us know:

https://www.emfcamp.org/cfp

We’re especially keen to hear from people with different backgrounds than you’d expect to find at a technology conference. Talks and workshop submissions are reviewed anonymously by our diverse review panel.

Successful proposals will receive the opportunity to purchase a weekend ticket, or a free day ticket.

We’ll close submissions to the CfP around a month before the event, but we start reviewing them sooner. The sooner you submit, the better your chance of being accepted!

Arcade

The EMF arcade is returning for 2026 and we’re welcoming submissions for games or playable objects.

If you have a game that might work in our arcade, you can now submit it here. If your game is accepted, you’ll also have the opportunity to buy a ticket.

Tickets

The next round of ticket sales will be on Thursday 2nd April at 18:00 BST, on our ticket sales page. Our tickets do sell quickly, so make sure you’re ready at the right time.

This will be our last major round of ticket sales, but we’ll be reselling returned tickets up to the start of the event. Keep an eye on our Fediverse feed for notifications.

If you have a ticket to EMF and can’t come, we’re now offering full refunds, which you can request through your website account. We expect to offer refunds until around one month before the event.

If you’ve bought a ticket for a friend, you can also transfer it to them through your account.

Sponsors

While your ticket covers the basic infrastructure for EMF, our lovely sponsors help to make the event pretty and accessible. We’re still looking for sponsors for this year’s event – if you know a company which might be interested, please send them the link!

We’ve also now opened up sponsorship tiers at £1,000 and below, which can be purchased through our website.

We’d like to say special thanks to FoundryZero for being the first gold sponsor of EMF 2026, as well as cside, Grafana, Mythic Beasts, and Onega.

Love,

The EMF team
