See the Live Announcement

We will officially announce and congratulate the Zen Masters during Hannah Fry's keynote on Thursday, Oct. 22. Be sure to cheer them on.

Go to the Community Meetup

Join us for a meetup of all Tableau Community members on Wednesday, Oct. 21 at 12:45 p.m. In addition to the Zen Masters, you can also meet our Community and Social Ambassadors. Find out what it takes to become a Zen Master, or how to start a User Group, or how to get active on social media. Click here for meetup details.

Look Out for Zen Master Badges/T-Shirts

The Zen Masters will have special badges and T-shirts. If you see a Zen Master, say hi! Or take a selfie and post it to Twitter or Instagram using the hashtag #ZenMasterAndMe.

We hope you enjoy following and learning from the Zen Masters. Could YOU be one of our Zen Masters next year?
