Check back soon to see our updated community event support opportunities! ## What constitutes a Gatsby event? A community-organized Gatsby event can be a local meetup, a small conference, a “lunch and learn” with coworkers, or a larger event - as long as **it includes at least one Gatsby-focused presentation or discussion**. It’s up to you how many people you want to invite and how casual the environment. You can organize an event at your workplace or for the local community. -## What support does Gatsby provide? - -There are several ways Gatsby can support your event: - -- Promote event on the [Gatsbyjs.org Events Page](/contributing/events/) -- Promote event via [Gatsby’s Twitter account](https://twitter.com/gatsbyjs) -- \$300 off event expenses (food, supplies, space rental, etc.) -- Free Gatsby stickers from the [Gatsby Swag Store](https://store.gatsbyjs.org/) -- 20% off swag in the [Gatsby Swag Store](https://store.gatsbyjs.org/) for your attendees - -### A note on shipping - -We support US and international Gatsby events, but it’s not uncommon to run into issues with international shipping that can delay orders for weeks. Shipments to non-western countries in particular can often take well over a month to arrive. We’re working on finding international shipping partners, but until that’s sorted out, **if you need stickers shipped internationally, please make sure you’re submitting your event at least 6 weeks in advance**. - -## Requirements - -- Requests should be made at least 1 month in advance of your event date. (If your event is outside the US and you plan to request stickers, we strongly recommend making your request at least 6 weeks in advance.) -- The event must have at least one Gatsby-focused presentation or discussion. -- Please announce Gatsby as a sponsor for the event and/or list us on the event as a sponsor. -- If you’re requesting the \$300 reimbursement, then you must submit a receipt or receipts for event-related expenses. -- The event must be in harmony with the [Gatsby Code of Conduct](/contributing/code-of-conduct/) and follow the [Gatsby brand guidelines](/guidelines/logo/) - -## How do you qualify for Gatsby support? - -To request support and submit your event to the Gatsby events page, apply at the link below. - -[Request Event Support](https://airtable.com/shrpwc99yogJm9sfI) - -Events are evaluated on a weekly basis.
