European Frontend Conference CFPs Open Right Now

As of Sept 20, 2026 the big GitNation/React circuit has gone quiet on CFPs — the one verified, well-paying open call is Web Rebels 2027 (deadline Oct 3), with NG-DE and NgRome open for Angular but undated.

TL;DR — The React/JS conference circuit is mostly between CFP cycles right now. The one fully verified, strong-fit open call is Web Rebels 2027 (Oslo, deadline Oct 3, 2026) — good compensation, but it explicitly bans AI-related talks, so bring a TypeScript/React/Node angle instead [12]. For Angular specifically, NG-DE and NgRome both say their CFPs are open right now, but neither publishes a deadline — submit soon, don’t wait [9] [10]. Everything else in the React Summit/Advanced/Day Berlin/JSNation family (GitNation) has either just closed for its next edition or hasn’t opened its 2027 round yet — see “Opening soon” below and set a reminder for Nov–Dec 2026.

Open now

Sorted by deadline, soonest first. Rows marked ⚠ have a confirmed-open CFP but no published deadline — treat as “submit ASAP.”

Conference Dates & location CFP deadline Submit Compensation Formats Platform Fit
Web Rebels 2027 May 25–26, 2027 · Oslo, Norway Oct 3, 2026, 23:59 CEST (UTC+2) [12] Sessionize Travel + accommodation covered, free entry; fee not stated [12] Not itemized on the CFP page Sessionize General JS/web conference — good for TS, React, Node architecture talks, but the organizers state “please no AI related talks” [12], which rules out most of the AI-assisted-dev catalog
NG-DE 2026 ⚠ Oct 14–16, 2026 · Berlin, Germany Not published — event is only ~4 weeks out, so treat as closing imminently [9] Link on site (URL not exposed without navigating) Not stated Not stated Not stated Strong Angular fit; small number of open-CFP slots alongside a curated program [9]
NgRome 2026 ⚠ 2026 · Rome, Italy (exact dates not published) Not published [10] Google Form Not stated Not stated Google Forms Strong Angular fit; ambiguous — no dates or deadline on site, confirm event is still upcoming before investing time [10]

Opening soon / expected

Not open yet, but on a predictable calendar or explicitly announced as “coming.”

Conference Dates & location Expected CFP window Notes
React Summit 2027 May 21–25, 2027 · Amsterdam & Online Likely ~Dec 2026–Feb 2027 GitNation’s 2025 edition closed CFP March 2 for a June event [5]; the 2027 event page exists with a linked CFP tab, but that page is login-gated and neither status nor deadline could be verified directly [20] [21]
JSNation 2027 May 20 (hybrid) & 24 (remote), 2027 · Amsterdam & Online Likely ~Dec 2026–Mar 2027 Same GitNation family/pattern as React Summit; no CFP page found yet [22]
Vue.js Amsterdam 2027 Mar 11–12, 2027 · Amsterdam (10th & final edition at Theater Amsterdam) Unknown CFP page (vuejs.amsterdam/call-for-papers) returned a server error on every fetch attempt — could not verify status [8]. Past editions offer travel + 3 nights at a 4★ hotel
Frontmania 2027 Expected Oct 2027 · Utrecht “Soon after the new year” per organizers The 2026 edition’s CFP already closed May 31, 2026 [16]; a cached page says the next CFP opens early in the new year [15]
JSWorld Conference 2027 Mar 12, 2027 · Amsterdam Unconfirmed A LinkedIn post claimed “CFP open now,” but the official site shows no CFP details — verify directly before relying on this [23]
CityJS — next city TBD Athens: Oct 21–23, 2026 · London: Apr 21–23, 2027 [24] Unknown CityJS’s own speakers page states no edition currently has an open CFP and that “the next CFP to open will be Athens” [11] — odd given Athens 2026 is only weeks away; check cityjsconf.org directly, this may mean the next Athens (2027) round
Nordic.js — next edition unclear Historically early October · Stockholm Unknown Nordic.js’s site would not return content newer than the Oct 2–3, 2025 edition on repeated fetches; could not confirm whether a 2026 edition exists or its CFP status — genuinely ambiguous, check nordicjs.com directly [6]

Notes on methodology

Every row above was checked by fetching the conference’s own CFP or event page directly, not inferred from a search snippet. Where the page contradicted itself across sources (e.g. Web Rebels’ deadline shown as Sept 19 on the aggregator cfp.watch [26] vs. Oct 3 directly on Sessionize [12]), the conference’s own submission platform was treated as authoritative. Several official CFP pages are gated behind login (GitNation’s /cfp routes) or returned server errors (Vue.js Amsterdam) at fetch time — those are flagged as unverified rather than guessed at. GitNation (React Summit, React Advanced, React Day Berlin, JSNation) appears to be consolidating CFPs into its own platform and away from PaperCall, which itself is shutting down Aug 31, 2026 [2] — expect submission-URL churn on those four events over the next few months.
