A fun-filled all-day WordPress conference. Keynotes from Jen Mylo and Brewster Kahle.

WordCamp Portland is the annual WordPress conference for Portland. After being on hiatus in 2014, we're elated to be coming back together for all things WordPress this year.

WordCamp is a conference that focuses on everything WordPress. WordCamps are informal, community-organized events that are put together by WordPress users like you. Everyone from casual users to core developers participate, share ideas, and get to know each other.

NOTE: Partaking in beer and/or blogging is neither expected nor required. We're just looking for an excuse to get the broader Portland startup and tech community together.

Back in the before times — when blogging was far more prevalent — the Portland startup community used to gather every Friday afternoon under the pretense of discussing blogging and often WordPress. When it was really just an excuse to see one another. And welcome both new transplants and visitors alike to Portland.

Every Friday, Beer and Blog was the best place to meet and chat with the Portland tech community — as a community — whether you happened to blog or not.

With WordCamp US 2024 — which is being held in Portland, this year — coming to a conclusion on Friday, September 20, 2024, it seemed like an opportune time to bask in a little nostalgia and gather for another Beer and Blog. Just for old time's sake.

So take off work a bit early and head down to Rogue in SE Portland (formerly known as The Green Dragon). You deserve it. Go spend some time getting acquainted with the Portland tech community you're one event away from getting to know and love. Or reconnect with folks whom you haven't seen in a long long time.
