+# GCC2026 CollaborationFest (CoFest!)
+
+CoFest is a community gathering by those interested in
+contributing to Galaxy's tool set, documentation, training materials, code base,
+and anywhere else that expands the Galaxy ecosystem.
+
+CoFest participants will gather around shared interests and address common
+topics related to those interests. It is an informal, highly interactive meeting
+where you get to "hack" on a topic of choice - and you can do it with others
+that share similar interests.
+
+CoFest will be held June 25-26, 2026, immediately following the main GCC2026
+conference in Clermont-Ferrand, France. You can attend CoFest whether or not you
+attend the main conference.

+## Event highlights
+
+
+
+
+
+

+
+
+The [Galaxy Community Conference (GCC)](/gcc) is an annual conference focused on
+the use and development of the [Galaxy platform](https://galaxyproject.org/) for
+data analysis. **The conference brings together researchers, software
+developers, and trainers from a variety of disciplines to share their
+experiences, knowledge, and skills.**
+
+The conference included talks, posters, and workshops on a wide range of topics
+related to Galaxy, including analysis results, methods development, new software
+features and tools, and training and outreach topics. **The GCC provides an
+opportunity for attendees to learn about the latest developments in the Galaxy
+platform and to connect with other members of the Galaxy community.**
+
+
+
+
+
+

+
+
+**Nestled in the heart of central France**, Clermont-Ferrand is a city framed by
+dramatic volcanic landscapes and rich history. Dominated by the striking black
+lava-stone cathedral and surrounded by the [Chaîne des
+Puys](https://volcan.puy-de-dome.fr/volcans/chaine-des-puys.html) — a UNESCO
+World Heritage site of ancient volcanoes — the city offers an inspiring mix of
+natural beauty and architectural wonder.
+
+Conference participants can look forward to vibrant cultural experiences, from
+strolling through charming medieval streets to enjoying lively cafés and local
+gastronomy. With its dynamic university atmosphere and welcoming spirit,
+Clermont-Ferrand provides the perfect setting for stimulating academic exchange
+and memorable discoveries.
+
+The **[travel page](/events/gcc2026/travel/) has more details.**
+
+
+
+
+
+

+
+
+**GCC2026 is hosted by the [Université Clermont Auvergne](https://www.uca.fr/)
+(UCA)**. UCA is a modern, dynamic research university born from the merger of two
+prominent institutions in 2017, now unifying diverse strengths across science,
+engineering, health, and humanities. With over 35,000 students and more than 40
+research units, UCA is deeply integrated into local and international research
+networks, committed to fostering interdisciplinary exchange and scientific
+excellence. 
+
+Among other initiatives, UCA also supports the [AuBi bioinformatics
+platform](https://www.france-genomique.org/platforms-and-equipments/plateforme-de-bio-informatique-de-clermont-ferrand-aubi/?lang=en),
+which administers a local Galaxy instance.
+
+The Galaxy project is thrilled to be hosted by UCA!
