Calling all Splunk developers, custom SPL builders, dashboarders, and Splunkbase app creators – the Builder Bar is back at .conf25, and this year, we’re serving up something fresh: a retro tech beer garden experience built just for developers.

This is the place to unplug from the hustle, get your hands on the latest Splunk dev tools, and connect with fellow innovators. Whether you're a seasoned app developer or just starting your Splunk journey, we’ve got a drink of inspiration waiting for you.

What’s On Tap at the .conf25 Builder Bar?

Located in the heart of the Pavilion, the Builder Bar is where new ideas brew and dev communities grow. Here’s what’s waiting for you:

  • New Developer Tooling (Demo Booths): Explore new toolkits, SDKs, frameworks, and integrations for Splunk. Talk to product managers, engineers, and UX designers about what’s next and how we’re helping you build game-changing apps faster and smarter.
  • ‘Ask the Experts’ Bar: Pull up a stool and get real-time help from the Developer Advisory and Support team. Got a question? We’ve got answers (and maybe a drink, too).
  • ‘Wall of Heroes’ Developer Spotlights: Meet the makers! Get inspired by real-world success stories from the Splunk developer community.
  • Swag + Prize Raffles: We’re giving away some epic swag and big ticket raffle prizes this year. Think Raspberry Pi kits, mini Pac-Man arcades, and more. Stop by and win!
  • Yard Games & Hangout Areas: Take a breather, charge your phone, and crush your colleagues in some fun yard games.

We’ve curated the ultimate builder hangout this year – a space to learn, ask, share, network, and just be your dev self. You’ll walk away with epic giveaways, the knowledge to take your apps to the next level, and a drink or two.
