This month Foulab will be making an appearance at the 2026 edition of Montréal’s Vintage Computing Festival (VCF). We will be there on November 7th and 8th. If you’re there too, come say hello!


No Net Night - Tuesday November 3rd @ 18:30 - 23:00

No Net Nights are a monthly ritual where we gather to do activities in the lab that don’t require Internet access. It is a good time to socialize with Foulabbers, host a LAN party, check out the library or hunt for ghosts in the retro-computing museum.


Mesh Night - Wednesday November 4th @ 19:00 - 22:00

Mesh Nights are a recurring monthly event, normally hosted on the first Wednesday of each month.

At the Mesh Night, we will be talking about and experimenting with mesh networking technologies such as Meshtastic, MeshCore, and Reticulum.

Beginners are welcome to drop by, we are happy to answer your questions and demo our devices for you.

Cleaning and Organization Day - Sunday November 8th @ 12:00 - 20:00

We’ll be gathering on this date to clean and organize Foulab. If you’ve ever been to Foulab, you know this is no small task. The more people, the merrier. To show our appreciation, we’ll order food for the cleaning and organization crew.

Cleaning and Organization Days normally occur monthly on the first Sunday of the month, but this month it will occur on the second Sunday.


Foulab Monthly Meeting - Tuesday November 17th @ 20:00 - 21:30

We will discuss Foulab business during the open night of November 17th, 2026. All of our meetings are open to the public, so even if you are not a member, you are welcome to attend the meeting and learn how we operate. It is also a great opportunity to become involved.


Debian & Stuff - Saturday November 21st @ 10:30 - 17:00

Les « Debian & Stuff » sont des rencontres informelles de la communauté Debian dans la région de Montréal pour travailler sur des choses liées à Debian - ou pas.

Venez discuter avec nous ou travailler sur un projet intéressant: tout le monde est bienvenue!

Avis aux intéressé-e-s: nous irons probablement prendre un verre dans une brasserie avoisinante après l’événement!

–

“Debian & Stuff” are informal meetups for the Debian community in the Montreal area, where we work on things related to Debian —- or anything else, for that matter.

Come chat with us or work on an interesting project. Everyone is welcome!

For those interested: we’ll likely head to a nearby brewery for a drink after the event!

Hosted by Debian Quebec


Fediverse Night - Wednesday November 25th @ 19:00 - 22:00

Whether you’re a developer of fediverse software, an instance admin, a user, or just fedi-curious, join us at the monthly Fediverse Night for discussion about decentralised social media.

This is a recurring thing, hosted on the last Wednesday of each month.

Hosted by n00q


Noise Hacking Night - Friday November 27th @ 20:00 - 23:00

This is a night dedicated to sound synthesis and mutation, using hardware and software. People are encouraged to bring their own noise-makers, plug them in, and join in on the noise-making mayhem!

These are the recordings from previous sessions.


…

All November events are open to the public and free to attend, although we do appreciate donations.

Tuesdays and Thursdays are Open Nights. They are a great time for newcomers to visit the space. Sometimes events also happen on the these nights.
