9 listed events in Orange County. Browse upcoming dates, meet local hosts and explore past events.
This is where claudeoc.com now lives. Same events, same host, same county — now sitting alongside Los Angeles and San Diego, because the people who came kept asking what else was happening nearby.
Explore Claude events across Orange County, from hands-on workshops to casual community meetups. Beginners are welcome; check the listing for the session’s preparation.
Hosts and co-hosts: Travis Johnson, Gideon Needleman, Bethany Joy Clark, Claude Community, Mike Brown, Bob Genthert, Alexio Cassani.

Every Monday at 8 AM Pacific, give me a short Claude Community SoCal brief. Read https://claudesocal.com/events.md (the Claude Community SoCal event list as Markdown). If that page won't load, read https://claudesocal.com/events instead. Only use the "Upcoming events" section; ignore the past-events archive. Area: Orange County only, including every city in it. Then tell me: 1. Next 14 days: every upcoming event in my area, with its name, day, date and time (Pacific), city, format (meetup, workshop, Impact Lab, conversation), whether it's free or needs host approval, and its Luma registration link. 2. Further out: one line per remaining upcoming event in my area, with the date, name and link. 3. New this week: if you can see your previous brief, mark any event that wasn't in it. Otherwise skip this section. Rules: use only claudesocal.com and the Luma pages it links to. Don't invent events, venues, prices or times. If an address says it's shared on approval, say that. If nothing in my area is coming up, reply in one line and link https://claudesocal.com/join for event emails. Keep it scannable.

Alexio Cassani (Co-Founder & CEO, FairMind, and Claude Community Ambassador, Italy) is flying in from Italy for one night in Orange County to show how it works. Teams that get it right are pointing toward a dark factory, where software gets planned, written, tested and shipped while nobody is typing. Same model.
Luma releases a venue's street address only once it approves a registration, so 5 of these 7 show none. The 2 that published an address in advance print theirs in full.
