​About Lakehouse, Lagers & Legends

​What started as a few meetups for data engineers has turned into a worldwide community of people who live and breathe data. Each event blends two things our crowd cares about most: sharp, practical sessions on the latest in data engineering and a relaxed setting to trade ideas over a cold drink.

​Every stop is a little different- new city, new voices, fresh conversations but the core stays the same: bring smart people together, share real-world lessons, and spark collaborations that carry on long after the night ends.
