How To Prepare For WordCamp Halifax 2019 This Weekend

Know before you go to WordCamp Halifax 2019

The conference is just a few days away (holy!). We want to prepare you for all the WordPress and web topics you can handle. Read on to see how you can get the most out of WordCamp Halifax:

With just a few days left to get your tickets for WordCamp Halifax 2019, we want to prep you for all the WordPress and Online Business topics you can handle. Read on to get ready for this year’s WordCamp Halifax:

1) Make sure you have Breakfast, we have you covered the rest of the day

Yes, there will be coffee and tea.

Yes, your ticket includes a catered lunch. And afternoon snacks. And more snacks at the Afterparty.

But there’s a bit of space between the beginning of the conference and lunch, so make sure you arrive already fueled up for the day.

2) You don’t need to print a ticket, we’ll have your info on hand.

We’ll handle all the registration details, just show up and tell us your name. Our friendly volunteers will hand you your own personalized badge. Please note that tickets are not available at the door, so buy yours before 4 pm this Friday.

Registration starts at 8:00 am. Opening remarks begin at 8:45 am but if you’re late, we’ll have registration available all day. We’ve got you.

Also, you do not need to bring your laptop in order to get the most out of WordCamp. Some developer sessions may be beneficial to have one to follow along, but it’s not required.

Sessions are lecture-style in nature, not workshops. A laptop is great if you want to receive some free consulting time with Experts at the Happiness Bar (more on that later), and there are lots of outlets in the main lobby area to charge your devices.

Track Announcement

We are excited to announce our schedule for WordCamp Halifax 2019. We have a few new speakers with topics that range from social media distribution, membership websites to cryptocurrency—and everything in between.

We have kept the tracks of learning we’ve used for the last couple of years, so this breakdown should look a little familiar:

We have three tracks of learning:

  • Content Creators: Easiest sessions. Little prior WordPress experience is expected. Casual users, business owners, bloggers, etc.
  • Site Creators: Some prior WordPress experience would be beneficial for these sessions, but is not required. Small amounts of HTML, CSS, PHP and Javascript might be presented in some talks. Loads about using your WordPress website.
  • Code Creators: Advanced WordPress concepts, HTML, CSS, PHP and Javascript will be presented.

You asked for a longer afterparty and we listened! We are wrapping up a little earlier this year and have moved up the afterparty—sponsored by Resulta—to start around 5 pm to give you more time to socialize after the event.

For a full look at the schedule, you’ll find it right here

Looking forward to seeing everyone on September 7th!
