Founding explorer trip
Devcon week in Mumbai, then Diwali
Between Goa and Mirissa, we base in Mumbai for the week the Ethereum world gathers there. Parents who want the conference take it, families share one of the world's great cities, and days later Mumbai lights up for the festival of lights.
The bridge on the route
Between Goa and Mirissa, a week that does double duty
Edge City wraps on November 1, our Mirissa base opens the same day, and Mumbai sits right on the way. The week we pass through, the Ethereum community's global gathering is in town and Diwali follows days later: builder energy for the parents who want it, and one of the great living cities for everyone. Traveling families join the cohort for the week; families already in town for the conference are welcome to find us too.
Why this week
The Ethereum world, then the festival of lights
Devcon 8 runs November 3 to 6 at the JIO World Center, the Ethereum community's global gathering, in India for the first time. Then, on November 8, Diwali: the whole city lit, sweets everywhere, fireworks over the water. A week where a family can watch the future being built and one of the world's oldest festivals being celebrated, back to back.
The conference is its organizer's own event with its own tickets, booked directly with them. Our journey stands on its own, conference or not.
