One Java. Two Rooms. Three Days.
The JCON Rooms are where the classic conference part of JCON USA happens.
From Tuesday through Thursday, we run two dedicated rooms with Java content inside IBM TechXchange 2026.


What can you expect?
Expect sessions from Java Champions, Java User Group leaders, experienced developers, architects and other experts from across the Java ecosystem.
This is not about high-level product pitches. We want talks from people who build things, solve real problems and have something useful to share with other developers.
Some sessions will introduce new technologies. Others will go deep into architecture or implementation details. And some will simply show you how another developer solved a problem you might be dealing with yourself.
Learn from the Java Community
What makes JCON different is the people on stage.
Our speakers come from the Java community itself: Java Champions, JUG leaders, open-source contributors, architects, engineers and people who spend their days building software.
And because the JCON Community Hub is right there at the conference, the conversation does not have to end when the session does.
Hear something interesting?
Find the speaker afterwards and continue the discussion.
That connection between talks and community is a big part of what JCON USA is about.
Find Your Sessions
The complete JCON USA schedule will show you what is happening in both rooms throughout the conference.

Part of a Much Bigger Conference
Your day does not have to consist only of JCON sessions.
Because JCON USA is part of IBM TechXchange, you can move freely between the JCON Rooms and everything else happening at TechXchange.
Join a JCON session in the morning. Attend an IBM hands-on lab afterwards. Explore the Sandbox. Learn about a completely different technology. Then come back for another Java talk.
You build your own conference experience.
