Scala Days, the premier Scala Conference is held twice a year.

And here is the list in all it's glory for your viewing pleasure during the holidays!  

And remember, 2017 Scala Days Conferences will be held in Chicago on April 18 - 21, 2017 and in Copenhagen, on May 30 - June 2 ,2017. Now is the time to submit sessions and save the dates!
