A desktop weekly events graphic for The Drop Times uses a pale world map background and a vertical timeline with two Drupal community events. The graphic text reads "Events This Week" "JULY 20TH TO JULY 27TH 2026" "JULU 23" "Webinar. Secure at Speed with Fastly. Edge Delivery Without Compromise" "JULY 25" "Drupal Pune Meetup" "THE DROP TIMES" "Follow us on" "Join Our Slack Channel" "thedroptimes" and "www.thedroptimes.com".

Four Drupal-related events take place between 20 and 26 July 2026. The online programme includes DrupalEasy component training, The DropTimes’ July Open Townhall, and a Fastly edge security webinar. An in-person Drupal Pune Meetup closes the week with sessions on modern authentication and production AI agents.

The events address different parts of Drupal work. Developers can study reusable component architecture, community members can take part in editorial planning, and technical teams can examine edge delivery and infrastructure security. The Pune meetup provides a local setting for technical sessions and community discussion. All online event times are listed in UTC, while the in-person meetup uses its local time zone.
