## ONE EVENT FOR EVERYTHING CAKEPHP
Every spring we hold our annual conference dedicated to CakePHP. For the past 10 years, the framework has been a benchmark for PHP development, providing developers with a full MVC stack solution to build powerful applications which scale. This, coupled with the amazing community backing and thousands of plugins, makes CakePHP the number one choice for those who love code.
That's why we ask you join us at CakeFest 2025, and experience open source at it's very best!
