'''JavaOne''' is an annual conference inaugurated in 1996 by [[Sun Microsystems]] to discuss [[Java (programming language)|Java]] technologies, primarily among Java developers. JavaOne is held at the [[Moscone Center]] in [[San Francisco, California]] usually between April and June and typically running from Sunday to Friday. Technical sessions on a variety of topics are held during the day. In the evening, Birds of a Feather (BOF) sessions are held at the Moscone Center and surrounding hotels. BOF sessions allow people to focus in on a particular aspect of Java technology.
 
Access to the technical sessions, keynote presentations, exhibits and BOF sessions requires a conference pass which usually costs between $1795 to $1995 USD.
