2 weeks. 13 sleeps. And it’ll be here 🎉 The much anticipated Umbraco version 9 release moving the Umbraco CMS to the modern .NET 5/ASP.NET Core. Over the past year, we’ve been working hard on this move and have been thrilled to see the engagement, help, and enthusiasm from the Umbraco community - H5YR! Now, we’re finally here. And that calls for an extra special celebration - and you’re invited:

The show ✨

We’ve planned a live show that’ll take you through the journey, the ins and outs, and the most frequently asked questions regarding Umbraco 9 - straight from the horses’ mouths 🐴 🐴.

And we want to not just celebrate the remarkable upgrade of the open-source CMS, but everyone involved!
