Friday 30 October at The Edge, Knightsbridge in Bryanston was a full WordCamp day. Thank you to everyone who made it happen and everyone who walked through the door.
Speakers
Ten talks on one schedule. Charl du Plessis, Dirk Tolken, Hanna Partridge, Joan Logose, Jonathan Bossenger, Kim Clow, Kofi Mokome, Rufaro Madamombe, Samuel Femi Taiwo, and Severin Lucks brought WooCommerce, accessibility, GEO, meetups, and WordPress work to the room. The hallway chats after your sessions mattered as much as the slides. We’re grateful.
Sponsors
WordCamp Johannesburg is volunteer-run. Sponsorship is what made our WordCamp possible.
Thank you to Bandile Solutions & Services (Super Admin), and BWD, Elementor, Kirki, and The Jester Group on the Author tier. Thanks too to our community sponsors Jetpack, Woo, Bluehost, and Hostinger for the ongoing support that helps WordCamps like this happen.
Volunteers
You gave up your Friday for registration, session support, speakers, and everything in between. The day ran because you showed up early and stayed helpful.
Organisers
Same WP Joburg crew behind the monthly meetups, now on WordCamp scale. Months of calls and checklists landed on one Friday. Thank you for seeing it through.
Marcel, our MC
Marcel was our MC. He kept transitions clean, timing honest, and the room feeling like a community day rather than a script on rails. That energy showed.
Everyone who attended
You filled The Edge. Questions in the sessions, conversations on the outdoor breaks, new connections at lunch. That’s the WordCamp we wanted.
Leave feedback
The event is done, but your notes still help. On the Leave Feedback page you can tell us what worked and what didn’t. Feedback goes to speakers and organisers only, so you can be straight about sessions and the day as a whole.
See you at WP Joburg meetups. And at the next WordCamp.
