Health & Safety

Check this page for updates about health and safety recommendations.

Our community’s well-being is extremely important to us, and creating a safe, worry-free event is our top priority. We will adjust our health and safety protocols as needed while updating this page with information about plans for our attendees onsite. We continue to look to local municipality guidelines to make the best and most informed decisions around onsite safety and requirements.

All in-person attendance requirements are subject to change based on local guidelines.

Health Measures

Vaccines

We encourage flu shots, COVID-19 vaccination and boosters to reduce the threat of illness.

Food Allergies

The Linux Foundation believes it’s essential to prioritize the safety and well-being of all attendees, including those with food allergies.

We aim to provide a variety of choices to cater to various needs such as vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free, and peanut-free. All food items will be clearly labeled at the event, indicating the ingredients used and any potential allergens present.

If you have a food allergy we need to be aware of, please email us at [email protected].

Onsite Personal Protection

  • If you feel ill while at the event, please take a COVID-19 self-test and isolate as needed.
  • Hand sanitizing stations will be available throughout the event venue.
  • A limited supply of face masks will be available upon request at Registration.
  • We respectfully remind all attendees, speakers, sponsors, and staff to:
    • Stay home if you experience any cold or flu-like symptoms.

General Safety

Attendee safety is our top priority. Always exercise common sense and good judgment when traveling.

  • When walking around the city, remember to take off your conference badge.
  • Safety in numbers: Exploring the city can be safer when done with a friend or colleague.
  • Walk with purpose and stick to well-lit areas and on main streets.
  • If alone after dark, use a ride service such as Lyft, Uber or a taxi. 
  • Save the address and phone number of where you’re staying in your phone.
  • Be aware of your surroundings and keep your eyes up and not on your phone.
  • If something doesn’t feel right, walk into a business/hotel for help.
  • Be careful and alert when using a cash machine.
  • Carry your purse or wallet safely. Purses should be closed and held in front of your body. Wallets should be carried in a front pants pocket or in an interior jacket pocket.
