Mapbox at Next.app DevCon Berlin 2026: Two Talks and a Booth Raffle

We're on the ground at Next.app DevCon Berlin on Oct 7 - 9, 2026 — Mapbox has two talks on the schedule, a booth, and a raffle. Here's where to find us.

🎟️ The Booth Raffle

📍 Booth #8

Come by the booth, install any Mapbox SDK, and get it running — that's your entry. Every working demo goes into the raffle for 6 LEGO® sets.

No purchase, no catch — just show us Mapbox SDK running and you're in.

And even if you don't win, swing by for the usual booth swag — rubber ducks and stickers while they last.
