Puppetize Digital is three separate events in three regions: Sydney (AEDT), London (GMT), and San Francisco (PST)—all happening in one day.

The event will run all day throughout each regional time zone and feature content for Puppet users and IT leaders, hands-on workshops, and networking opportunities. There will be some surprises this year as well given the remote nature of everything, so be prepared for some furry friends to join the party.
