About Swiftsonic

Built like a festival, crafted for Swift devs

What it is

Swiftsonic is a community-driven iOS & Swift developer conference with the heart of a technical gathering and the soul of a music festival.

Where & why

Hosted in Nashville, it brings together developers of all experience levels for practical, real-world talks on Swift, SwiftUI, app architecture, tooling, performance, and life on Apple platforms.

How it feels

Sessions are inclusive, approachable, and immediately useful—whether you’re building apps, frameworks, games, or indie projects.

Talks feel like sets, conversations turn into jam sessions, and inspiration carries a rhythm of its own.

How it works

Opener × Headliner rhythm

Set flow

Inspired by music festivals, every block pairs an opener talk with a headliner talk, then we break. It keeps energy high, gives newcomers a spotlight, and sets up a cohesive storyline for each theme.

Pairing support

In late Spring 2026, openers will be matched with headliners for optional mentorship, co-theming, or talk refinement.

Pairings are supportive, never prescriptive—the goal is to help emerging voices shine alongside seasoned speakers.
