Best conferences in Europe in 2017?
Looking for interesting software engineering conferences in 2017 to hunt for tickets already, both with general theme and focused on specific technology stacks. Do you have some favorites?

Edit: added date
No focus on specific languages, just on making good software. And it's all in English.

It's volunteer organised (so affordable) and it only attracts programmers who are passionate about their jobs. No recruiters, no businesspeople (who don't also code), etc. No company booths. It's very un-enterprisey and has a great atmosphere because of that.

No specific software stack, albeit rather web focused in practice. Central theme is (surprise) the Joy of Coding, so there's space for new cool tech, for meta-level stuff about how to enjoy your work/hobby better, and for in-depth workshops.
