​Join Us for the vLLM Inference Meetup in Munich!

​Hosted by Red Hat, AMD, Mistral AI, and CROZ, this event takes place on 24 February 2026 in Munich, Germany, and brings together vLLM users, developers, and AI engineers to explore the latest in GenAI inference.

​​Learn from the vLLM Team

​​Hear directly from leading vLLM committers, contributors, and users shaping the project’s roadmap and building its most advanced features. Expect deep technical talks, live demos, and plenty of time to connect with the community.

​Join the Pre-Event Hands-On Workshop: Building AI Agents with vLLM, MCP & AMD GPUs

​Our official vLLM meetup begins at 17:00 (see agenda below). Before the main session, join Red Hat and AMD at 16:00 for a beginner to intermediate level, instructor-led, hands-on GPU workshop where you will learn how to set up an OpenAI compatible endpoint to serve multiple models concurrently using vLLM and build multi-agent applications to deliver real-world applications. The workshop culminates with a short application development challenge. Doors open at 15:30 for the workshop. Space is limited — indicate your interest by selecting the workshop option during registration. Additionally, please join the AMD AI Developer Program and create your account to access AMD GPU: AMD AI Developer Program.
