We’re attending PyConf Hyderabad 2026. Are you? As a Community Partner, SciPy India is proud to offer a special discount code for tickets. Discount Code: OSHYD10 (book at 2026.pyconfhyd.org/tickets) Please note: discounted tickets are limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis.

A vertical promotional poster for PyConf Hyderabad 2026 with a bold, comic-book style design. The background is dark blue with radiating lines and dotted patterns, resembling a superhero burst. At the top center is the PyConf logo in bright yellow text with a red starburst behind it, and a small black banner reading “Hyderabad 2026.” White cloud-like shapes frame the very top edge.

Centred below the logo is the headline in large white text: “How do You Wish to Show Up at PyConf Hyderabad?”

Under the headline is a wide yellow banner with black text that reads:
“Community Partner Exclusive Discount
Use Code: OSHYD10”

Below this banner, centred on the poster, is a circular blue icon with a white stylised “S” symbol inside it.

Further down, a large line of white text reads:
“There’s a ticket for every kind of PyConfer!”
The word “PyConfer” is highlighted in yellow for emphasis.

At the bottom half of the poster are four illustrated ticket cards, slightly tilted and taped at the top like pinned notes. From left to right:

Contributor Ticket, shown on a white card with a black icon of two hands holding a heart.

Regular Ticket, on a light blue card with a simple black icon of a person reading or holding a book.

Combo Ticket, on a pale yellow card with a black icon of two raised hands coming together.

Workshop Ticket, on a white card with a black icon depicting a presentation board and seated audience.

A bright yellow footer strip runs along the bottom of the poster. On the left it reads:
“2026.pyconfhyd.org/tickets”
On the right it reads:
“2026.pyconfhyd.org”

Overall, the poster uses high-contrast colours (blue, yellow, white, and black), playful typography, and iconography to promote PyConf Hyderabad 2026 and its various ticket options, emphasising inclusivity and community participation.
