]]>This national flagship event brings together the open web community for two days of learning, networking, and inspiration focused on WordPress, the open-source platform powering nearly half the web.
Keynotes Will Take on the Future of the Open Web
WCEH25 will feature two keynote talks that will frame some of the most important conversations happening around WordPress and the open web.
Dave Winer, the pioneering developer and writer whose work helped shape blogging, RSS, and podcasting, will present WordPress and the Open Social Web. He’ll share lessons from decades of building for the open internet and make the case for WordPress as a cornerstone of a more distributed, user-owned web.
Evan Prodromou, founder of identi.ca and long-time advocate for open standards and federation, will deliver Beyond Microblogging: WordPress Leads the Way in Long-Form Text on the Social Web. His talk explores how WordPress is uniquely positioned to support rich, thoughtful publishing in a social web increasingly dominated by brevity and walled gardens.
Together, these keynotes will set the tone for discussion, reflection, and hands-on learning, rooted in the idea that WordPress doesn’t just power websites, it helps shape the future of the web itself.
Speakers With Diverse Perspectives to Lead Deep Dives on Key Subjects
At this time, more than a dozen names and topics have been confirmed for the first group of speakers who will give presentations and lead workshops at WCEH25. These speakers will take on a wide range of topics from accessibility, performance, and publishing workflows to block development, design systems, and community sustainability. They span a breadth of perspectives that, together, give the WordPress community its outsized impact on the evolution of the publishing and business.
“WordCamp Canada is about more than just websites,” says James Giroux, lead organizer for WCEH25. “It’s about building a web that’s more open, ethical, and inclusive — and that starts with bringing people together from every part of the ecosystem.”
Tickets and Travel Planning
Tickets for WordCamp Canada are on sale now at the WCEH25 website. For a limited time, several area hotels are offering discounted rates for WCEH attendees.
Organizers have shared a travel planning guide for those travelling to Ottawa internationally and from all over Canada.
Plan your trip today, and join the WordPress community in Ontario in October!
When the leaves turn, do you ever think about the days you used to head back to school? The crackle of new ideas and energy, the excitement of seeing new faces and old friends?
Remember that insatiable sense of possibility, where curiosity ruled, and no challenge was too big?

- The Future of WordPress in an AI-Driven World.

This year, WordCamp Canada will take place from October 16-17 in Carleton University’s Richcraft Hall Atrium and Conference Centre. This beautiful, highly accessible venue overlooks the Rideau River in Ottawa, Ontario. It’s just minutes from Parliament Hill, ByWard Market, and the downtown riverfront.
What sets WCEH apart is its national scale—a rarity in the WordCamp ecosystem. Most WordCamps are regional or city-based, making WCEH one of very few national WordCamps in the world.

WordCamp Canada 2024 Organizers
This May marks a very special month for people in Atlantic Canada. Not only will the first signs of spring appear in the area (finally), but a new conference will be popping up as well.
WordCamp Halifax is happening on May 27th at Marion McCain Building at Dalhousie University. This will be the first WordCamp in Canada East of Montreal, making it the web-related event of the season for Maritimers.
Get To Know Halifax
Halifax is best known for its friendly community and beautiful harbour. Take in cafes, beer gardens, the Citadel Hill, a farmers market and more pubs than you can count! May is a lovely time of year on the peninsula with lots of sunshine and occasional shower. Be sure to check out the newly built Central Library downtown – a spectacular architectural feat. Spend the whole week in Halifax to take road trips to other beautiful parts of the province: wine tours, U-picks and quaint fishing villages can all be found within a few hours drive away from the capital.
WordCamp has affordable accommodations if you want to stay close to the venue. More information can be found here.
What To Expect At WordCamp Halifax
With a mere $25 price tag, attendees can expect to enjoy:
- Catered lunch
- Swag bag with lots of goodies
- Happiness Bar where attendees can get one-on-one help with their website
- Lots of networking with people from a multitude of industries and skill levels
- 25 local, national and international speakers
- 21 informative sessions in three tracks
- An After Party five minutes from the venue, with affordable bevvy’s & snacks (you know how Haligonians love a good kitchen party!)
The team has worked hard to bring diverse programming to this inaugural WordCamp with three tracks of learning:
- Content Creators: Easiest sessions. Little prior WordPress experience expected
- Site Creators: Some 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
- Code Creators: Advanced WordPress concepts, HTML, CSS, PHP and Javascript will be presented.
We can’t wait to see everyone this May, so nab a ticket. With a limited seating of 185, you’ll have to grab one before they’re gone!
