This year’s WordCamp Toronto will take place October 3-4 2015 at Humber College’s Lakeshore Campus in the city’s west end. This will be our third annual WordCamp at Humber and we couldn’t be more excited. You can learn more about the venue on our Location page.
Our annual after-party will be taking place in downtown Toronto at the Duke of Devon pub. A short walk from Union Station, this’ll also be at the heart of our city’s annual Scotiabank Nuit Blanche festivities.
Want to sponsor the event? It’s a great opportunity to support the local WordPress community. Find full details on levels and recognition on the Sponsor page.
