Drupal Events This Week: 20–26 July 2026
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.

The course, led by Michael Anello for DrupalEasy, continues online on 20, 22, and 24 July 2026 from 13:00 to 16:00 UTC each day. The 18-hour course is delivered through six three-hour sessions across two weeks, with the final three sessions falling within this week. Its curriculum covers Single-Directory Component fundamentals, props, slots, schemas, theme integration, Drupal Canvas, Drush scaffolding, and the use of AI during component development. The course is presented with Drupal 11 and is compatible with Drupal 10.3 and later.
