Sessions will be available during their listed time, and then on demand on the platform after the initial 24 hours of straight content!

The Sched app allows you to build your schedule but is not a substitute for your event registration. You must be registered for GitLab Commit: Virtual 2020 to participate in the sessions. If you have not registered but would like to join us, please register and attend here.  Space in sessions is unlimited so advance sign-up is not necessary, it is just a convenience offered to guests.

To save a schedule you need to be logged in Sched, but this is not tied to your event registration. You do not need to be logged in to view the schedule.

Reminder: Sched is not the event platform, it is the schedule

Please note: This schedule is automatically displayed in Pacific Time (PT). To see the schedule in your preferred timezone, please select from the drop-down menu to the right, above “Filter by Date.”
