WordCamp Kansas City 2020 Postponed

The WordCamp Kansas City 2020 organizing team has decided to postpone WordCamp KC, originally scheduled for the end of April.

The spread of the coronavirus and the first confirmed cases in the Kansas City area have led to us making this decision.

We felt that we would have had far more to lose if we push forward at the current dates whether those impacts are:

  • lowered attendance
  • nonrefundable deposits being lost if our hand is forced to cancel late
  • ticket refund headache if we have to cancel late
  • wasted organizational & promotional time on our end for April dates
  • extra organizational & promotional time for new dates
  • extra organizational time for the headache of moving dates after more is in place

Fortunately, we made the call to postpone right before we opened ticket sales and before we placed any big deposits with vendors.

We are shooting to reschedule with JCCC for the end of the summer or early fall. Make sure you’re on our email list to get all the updates. Sign up here – https://www.wpkansascity.org/newsletter
