WordCamp Toronto 2013

By r3df | September 24, 2013

WordCamp Toronto (WCTO) is an annual conference dedicated to WordPress, the world’s most popular content management system (CMS). Websites around the globe are powered by WordPress, and WordPress itself is built and maintained by a dedicated community of international volunteers.

WordCamp Toronto 2013 is bringing together WordPress groups from the cities of Toronto, Mississauga, and beyond. 400 WordPress enthusiasts, and over 30 sessions — including workshops, panels, and more — will make this a Weekend of WordPress like Toronto has never seen before.

Are you new to WordPress? A seasoned pro? It doesn’t matter! WordCamp Toronto is the place to be for anyone interested in learning more about WordPress. We do our best to facilitate everyone, regardless of their experience level. If you leave knowing more than you did coming in, then we’ve done our job!

October 5th & 6th, Only $30!
