WordCamp US 2024 is Almost Here

WordCamp US 2024, the flagship WordPress event in North America, will start in a few hours. WordPress enthusiasts from around the globe are making their way to Portland, Oregon, for this highly anticipated event, scheduled for September 17-20 at the Oregon Convention Center.

This four-day event with around 45 engaging sessions kicks off with Contributor Day on the 17th, where attendees can collaborate on improving WordPress and giving back to the community. This year, WordCamp US introduces an exciting new addition—the Showcase Day.

Slated for September 18, Showcase Day highlights some of the most impressive websites powered by WordPress, including The New York Post, CNN Brazil, Disney Experiences, Harvard Gazette and Vox Media. Attendees will get a deeper understanding of how WordPress can scale for some of the world’s most notable brands.

The organizers have also added four Campfire sessions on Content Marketing, LGBTQ+ Community, ADHD and web hosting

The full schedule is already live, and attendees can experience engaging talks on key topics like Gutenberg, AI, accessibility, open-source technology, web designing, WooCommerce, and WordPress Playground.

In addition to the talks, WordCamp US attendees can look forward to the highly anticipated WordPress Speed Build Battle, networking opportunities at Networking Blocks, and plenty of side events for further engagement and connection. Attendees can also visit the famously closed-to-the-public Nike Company Store in nearby Beaverton.

To wrap up the event, the WordCamp US Social will take place at the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry (OMSI) on the 20th from 7:00 to 10:00 PM, giving attendees a chance to relax, network, and celebrate the week’s successes.

And, of course, WordCamp US wouldn’t be complete without the live Q&A session with Matt Mullenweg, which will take place on Friday, the 20th. Interestingly, this year’s event concludes on a Friday instead of the weekend.

For those unable to attend in person, all the presentations will be live-streamed on the WordPress YouTube channel. Later, it will also be available on WordPress.tv.
