Welcome to our programming for 2018! The beauty of WordCamp is that you don’t have to register for any sessions in particular – just come and go (quietly) as you please. All sessions are 45 minutes in length with 15 minute breaks in-between. Sessions will be recorded for WordPress.tv<\/a> at a later date so you won’t miss a thing.<\/p>\n

The Happiness Bar<\/a> will run in the main room\u00a0 from 9:00am – 4:45pm.<\/p>\n

Please note that the schedule is subject to change. Please double check the schedule the day of the event. As our speakers are volunteers, we occasionally have unavoidable last minute cancellations.<\/p>\n

Remember, there will be no tickets sold at the door, so register now<\/a>!<\/p>\n
