Are you a WordPress user? Do you love networking with other WordPress professionals? Or, perhaps, you’re simply curious about the most popular content management system in the world. WordCamps are a fantastic opportunity to connect and network with the WordPress community.
These locally organized events happen all across the world, and they’re an exciting, informal opportunity to engage, learn, and collaborate. If you’re in the Southeastern U.S. — or you’ve always wanted to visit — now’s the time to buy tickets for WordCamp Atlanta 2023.
WordCamp Atlanta 2023
Atlanta (affectionately referred to as “Hotlanta” by locals) is the capital of Georgia. This city is a hub of culture, history, music, and delicious southern food. In short, it is the ideal location for another WordCamp conference!
When and where
WordCamp Atlanta 2023 will take place from October 14–15 at Kennesaw State University, just a stone’s throw from the bustling city. KSU boasts a sprawling tree-filled campus — the perfect place to take in those fall colors. This year’s event will include informative speakerships and opportunities to learn from fellow community members. Attendees can also explore the Happiness Bar, a supportive place to have questions answered by WordPress experts (similar to the “Genius Bar” in Apple retail stores).
Tickets
Tickets to WCATL are on sale now, so secure your spot today. There are two options for tickets:
- General Admission: $50 grants access to all tracks and sessions. You’ll also receive a T-shirt, pre-printed badge, and swag from event sponsors.
- Micro Sponsor: Along with everything the standard tickets include, Micro Sponsor tickets ($250) are a great way to contribute to WCATL by helping keep costs low and accessible to general attendees.
Things to see and do
Atlanta has much to offer and plenty of sites to see. While you’re in town, don’t miss out on some of the top attractions, including the Georgia Aquarium, World of Coca-Cola, the MLK Jr. National Historical Park, Zoo Atlanta, and the High Museum of Art. If you’re a fan of the outdoors, take a stroll through Piedmont Park and the Atlanta Botanical Garden, or hike up Stone Mountain.
