The OSR schedule is repeated three times a day over three timezone hubs. Access the schedule for your timezone by clicking the appropriate geographical "hub" for your location. From these pages you can use a dropdown tool to select your exact location and see everything in your local timezone. All content is available to everyone, irrespective of where you are based.

The OSR program will be broadcast via Crowdcast. To prepare, you can create a free account, and find out more about how to attend a Crowdcast event. On the OHBM OS-SIG's Crowdcast page, you can access the list of all upcoming OSR events. Follow the account to receive event updates. Passwords to access the broadcasts will be emailed to registered participants. If Crowdcast is not available in your region, we will also be broadcasting on Douyu. |

Gather.town is a virtual meeting space that allows you to move freely in a room and join informal video conversations with fellow OSR participants. The space has a low tech 8-bit graphics style, and there are lounge areas, kitchen, garden and co-working spaces for you to explore! As you navigate around the space, you will be able to join video chat with people when you are are close to them. Each "town" has capacity of 50 people at any one time, so you can join OSR Social 1 or OSR Social 2 spaces! Passwords to access the Gather.town spaces will be emailed to registered participants. Only available on for Chrome and Firefox browsers. |

We will be streaming to Douyu for participants without access to Crowdcast. Here you can watch all the OSR content without participating in the events. Please see our live Douyu stream and subscribe for updates. |
