The Next Generation of WordCamps
Since 2006, WordCamps have been a staple way that WordPress enthusiasts meet. Coming out of the pandemic, we’ve been hearing from many organizers and attendees the desire to experiment with new event formats, and we want to support you!

You can also start discussing your ideas in the Slack #community-events channel or reach out to WordCamp Central via email [email protected].
