CNCF announced the list of all KCDs (Kubernetes Community Days) events for the upcoming 2025 year.

This announcement followed a recent update of the KCD program, which included a limitation on the number of events and their participants, as well as required the organisers to apply their submissions for 2025 by this September.

30 KCDs for 2025 were selected (out of 61 submissions) and confirmed. Here they are:

- March: Beijing (China); Guadalajara (Mexico); Rio de Janeiro (Brazil);
- April: Budapest (Hungary); Chennai (India); Auckland (New Zealand);
- May: Helsinki (Finland); San Francisco, Austin, and New York (USA); Seoul (South Korea); Istanbul (Turkey); Heredia (Costa Rica);
- June: Bratislava (Slovakia); Bangalore (India); Antigua Guatemala (Guatemala); Nigeria;
- July: Utrecht (The Netherlands); Taipei (Taiwan); Lima (Perú);
- August: Bogota (Colombia);
- September: Washington DC (USA); Sofia (Bulgaria); San Salvador (El Salvador); Porto (Portugal);
- July-September: Hangzhou (China);
- October: Warsaw (Poland); Colombo (Sri Lanka); Edinburgh (UK);
- December: Geneva (Switzerland).

P.S. A few prominent events from previous years, such as KCD Munich and KCD Zürich, are missing. We should expect similar offline events in these locations under their new names (not KCDs).
