"Google Developer Day" will take place on May 31, 2007 and feature workshops, speeches and discussion groups focused Google's applications and developer tools.
The theme of the event will be "Building Blocks for Better Web Applications."
"We're very excited to hold this first-ever worldwide Google developer gathering," Google vice president Marissa Mayer said.
The day will be an opportunity for software developers to collaborate and ask Google engineers questions, Ms Mayer said.
Google rival Yahoo hosts an annual "Hack Day" at which software developers spend 24 hours tinkering with and combining Yahoo applications in innovative ways.
Google Developer Day will take place at Google offices and offsite locations in Mountain View, Sao Paulo, Madrid, London, Paris, Hamburg, Moscow, Beijing, Tokyo and Sydney.
Google will stream live webcasts of the event from its Mountain View office and provide a YouTube channel with videos of Google Developer Day sessions around the world.
Google bought YouTube last year in a $1.65 billion ($2 billion) deal.
