The "F8" name comes from Facebook's tradition of 8 hour hackathons.
Facebook F8 was hosted in San Francisco, Californie from 2007 to 2016, then in a more central Silicon Valley location in San Jose, California from 2017 to 2019. In 2020 and 2021, it was a virtual event due to the COVID-19 pandemic. There was no F8 event in 2009, 2012, 2013 or 2022. The 2022 event was replaced by an event called Conversations, focusing on the metaverse.
