Symfony Blog:
The wait is finally over: the Symfony ElePHPants have arrived!
Nov 06, 2015 @ 18:56:03

The Symfony project has joined the ranks of several other groups in the PHP community and has created their own elePHPant, a Symfony branded version of the plush toy modeled after PHP's elephant mascot.

Conference after conference, we get endless requests from people longing to have their very own ElePHPant. And so, to mark the momentous occasion of Symfony’s 10th birthday we decided to take some serious action. You’ve seen personalised ElePHPants before, but you’ve never seen special edition Symfony ElePHPants!

[...] After having failed to rescue the ElePHPants from Customs, our manufacturers, already extremely busy with their Christmas orders, found a little window to resend us some precious mascots. Although much smaller in numbers than originally planned, we are happy to announce that the Symfony ElePHPants have finally touched down in Paris and are ready in time to celebrate 10 years at SymfonyCon Paris 2015!

You can get your hands on one at the [SymfonyCon Paris 2015 conference] happening next month but that's the only place so far. They're not being sold online (yet) and are available on a first-come, first-served basis at the conference for 20 Euro. If you've been planning to attend the conference, be sure to register now and get in on some great talks (and maybe an elePHPant while you're there).

SymfonyCon Paris is announced: December 3-5!
Apr 20, 2015 @ 17:11:56

The Symfony blog has officially announced SymfonyCon Paris including its dates - December 3rd through 5th.

We’re so thrilled and excited to announce SymfonyCon Paris! We’ve just confirmed the official dates, SymfonyCon Paris 2015 will be December 3-5 in a famous Parisian theater: Les Folies Bergère!

To celebrate Symfony’s 10th birthday it was logical to come back to Symfony’s hometown. As you were (almost) all asking for it, there was nothing more to convince us to do it in Paris. But Paris, is a very big city, with a lot of venues and this year is so special… To celebrate Symfony’s birthday, we picked up a magical venue… Welcome to les Folies Bergère! It’s downtown Paris and very easy to access wherever you are in Paris.

You can pick up Early Bird tickets right now from the conference site. If you're of the speaking sort, you could also submit to the Call for Paper that's open until June 30th. There will be workshops happening before the conference and the 5th will be a "hackday" for those wanting to gather with fellow Symfony developers and work out some code.

On the Symfony blog today they've officially announced the workshops that will be happening at this year's SymfonyCon Madrid and Symfony Live New York.

About 3 weeks ago, we launched 2 different polls to ask you what workshops you wanted to attend before SymfonyLive New York and SymfonyCon Madrid. First, we want to thank all the people who participated in the poll, so many of you answered, thank you very much for your time! Thanks to your votes, we were able to know which workshops were really interesting for you.

At Symfony Live New York you'll be able to attend Fabien's "Symfony Best Practices" or "Building RESTful Applications with Symfony" (the top two most requested training sessions). At SymfonyCon Madrid there's even more choices:

  • Building RESTful Applications with Symfony
  • Symfony Best Practices
