Hello fellow keyboard enthusiasts,I'm excited to gauge interest for a Mechanical Keyboard Meetup in North Rhine-Westphalia (NRW), Germany! This would be a fantastic opportunity for enthusiasts from the region to come together, showcase their builds, exchange knowledge, and just have a good time with like-minded people.
It's surprising to me that NRW doesn't seem to have a dedicated meetup. Additionally, with ClackyCon - previously a relatively nearby option - likely not happening from next year onwards, this event could serve as a great alternative for keyboard enthusiasts in the area. I find it really unfortunate that there may not be any more ClackyCons, and I sincerely hope they reconsider and continue hosting them in the future.
👉 If you’re interested, please fill out this short survey to help shape the event: https://form.typeform.com/to/BQQ7z6A8Proposed Details- Location: Cities in NRW such as Essen, Dortmund, or other centrally accessible cities (TBD based on interest).
- Date: Likely sometime next year (2026), aiming for a weekend to accommodate most participants.
- Activities
- Keyboard showcase & typing tests
- Discussions on custom builds, modding, and keycap collecting
- Swaps & sales (if participants are interested)
- Casual hangout and networking
This meetup would be open to everyone, from beginners to seasoned keyboard veterans. If you’re interested, please reply to this post or drop me a message so we can better gauge demand and make it happen!
Looking forward to your feedback and interest.Cheers
