Call for Sponsors

This year WordCamp Hamilton returns on June 2, 2018! This will be the 4th WordCamp Hamilton and we hope to make it as successful as it has been in the past.

Our 2015 and 2016 events were quite successful. We had sold out crowds of 200 WordPress bloggers, developers, users, educators and everyone in between. We’ll continue to bring WordPress education, inspiration, and fun to Hamilton’s WordPress community.

Simply put, without our generous sponsors, WordCamp Hamilton would not be affordable to the vast majority of the WordPress community. For just $20 our attendees have a full day to gain insight from our speakers, network with others, and learn more about the open source WordPress project whose mission is to democratize publishing through Open Source, GPL software. All of our valued sponsors, by donating to WordCamp Hamilton, continue to make this mission a reality. Thank you both to our sponsors, and all of those who sponsor WordCamps around the world!
