SQL Server. Dozens of free events a year, one in most major cities, 20-40
Sessions/Presenters, token payment that covers lunch (and ensures attendance).
The main event (PASS Summit) is held yearly, has 150 to 200 presentations/presenters, and presenters admission is free. It’s a community event and it’s freaking fantastic.
I guess is more data oriented than SQL Server alone no? Like I don’t quite have in my mind what kind of presentations would be donde if it was just SQL Server, apart from presenting new features or similar… But that would be mostly exclusive to Microsoft and associates.
It’s on everything from how to help your career (mentoring, presenting , etc), to learning tips for Azure to solving problems to using advanced feature. Mine were on WMI collection for SQL Server servers (and how to tweak power settings, etc) and Event Notifications to get all code changes, errors, etc. I have seen presentations on R, Python, MySQL, but also seminars on Service Broker, AWS, index tuning, and running MSSQL in Kubernetes or on Linux.
Are you in the magician’s guild?

What I’m hearing is that you’re not NOT in the magicians guild…
There’s a raunchy manga that just came out where the magic is based on SQL somehow.
