SHOPIFY MEETUP CENTRAL & EASTERN EUROPE 2026
The biggest official Shopify Meetup in Europe returns for its 2nd edition. Join 200+ merchants, founders, and tech partners to cut through the noise and build scalable eCommerce systems. Co-organized by eCommerce Today and Vevol Media.
TL;DR (The “No-Fluff” Summary)
-
Who: eCommerce Today & Vevol Media (Co-organizers).
-
Where: Grand Hotel Bucharest (ex-Intercontinental), Romania.
-
When: May 28th, 2026.
-
The Big Idea: We are bringing together the top eCommerce minds in CEE. No vanity metrics, no fake gurus. Just hands-on workshops, real-world insights, and networking with people who actually build things.
-
Core Message: The ecosystem is maturing. If you want to scale your Shopify store, you need solid infrastructure and the right partners. This is where you find both.
For years, eCommerce events have been plagued by the same issue: people standing on stages talking about “10x growth” and “hacks” that don’t actually work in the real world
We co-organize the Shopify Meetup CEE because we want an event we would actually attend. In 2025, we brought together 200+ top-tier professionals, and the 1st edition sold out quickly.
For 2026, we are doubling down on what matters: practical takeaways you can apply immediately and meaningful conversations with the partners and developers who run the backend of the industry. We handle the curation; you focus on the growth.
WHAT’S ON THE MENU
-
The Crowd: 200+ Shopify merchants, agencies, app developers, and partners from across Europe.
-
The Content: High-impact talks from top eCommerce leaders and hands-on workshops. Real-world insights you can actually use in your business.
-
The Vibe: A curated Shopify community experience. We prioritize networking with people who build, not just talk.
-
The Perks: Lunch is included because great ideas need fuel. And yes, an afterparty to keep the conversations going.
