GrafanaCON 2024: A look at this year’s agenda
Update: GrafanaCON 2024 is officially sold out, but you can still sign up for the waitlist and join us virtually for our keynote recap webinar.
GrafanaCON 2024 is just over a month away, and today, we’re thrilled to present the first look at this year’s agenda.
Taking place in Amsterdam, April 9-10, GrafanaCON is our annual conference focused on all things Grafana and its extended open source ecosystem. This year’s event is in person (for the first time in five years!), which means there will be tons of opportunities to connect with fellow members of the Grafana OSS community. In addition, GrafanaCON features two full days of technical talks, live demos, and user success stories that highlight all the amazing ways our community uses Grafana — from monitoring moon landings to helping preserve Dutch literature for the digital age.
An overview of the GrafanaCON 2024 agenda
Starting with the opening keynote on Tuesday, April 9, this year’s agenda has a lot to be excited about, including the next major release of both Grafana and Grafana Loki. Here’s a closer look at what to expect.
From the Grafana Labs team
Grafana Labs team members will share the latest developments to our OSS projects, as well as best practices and insights to advance your observability strategy. Some specific session topics include:
- A deep dive into Grafana 11 and all the new features for data visualization, incident response, and more
- What’s new in Grafana Loki 3.0, including native OpenTelemetry support and bloom-filter query acceleration
- A look at our new open source Grafana App Platform and how it helps developers create complex apps tightly integrated with Grafana

From the community
User voices are an integral part of any GrafanaCON event. This year, community members will take to the stage to share how they’re using Grafana and its extended open source ecosystem for some fascinating, creative, and (quite literally) stellar use cases.

- Grafana in space: Monitoring Japan’s SLIM moon lander in real time
- How Planted ramps up food production faster with Grafana’s single pane of glass
