Weekend of 16th and 17th November, 2019
University of Technology, Sydney (UTS)

What is WordCamp Sydney?

WordCamp Sydney is a volunteer-run and not-for-profit conference for designers, developers, marketers, business owners, and everyone in between that use WordPress or even any website.

What can I do at WordCamp Sydney?

WordCamp Sydney features two action-packed days of talks from industry experts who are sharing their knowledge with the community. There are no sales pitches, just educational content. Each day has two types of tracks, a Business & Marketing, and Designer & Developer track. There is also an afterparty on Saturday night with drinks and canapes.

What if I have been to WordCamp before?

No two WordCamp experiences are the same. Different speakers, sponsors, and, of course, camp attendees will be different. Whether you’re attending your first WordCamp or your 100th, you’re bound to have fun, learn a lot, and widen your circle of WordPress friends.

Come with an open mind. Be open to meeting new people, learn new ideas & explore new experiences. Leave your comfort zone!
