WordCamp San Diego Postponed

Faced with growing uncertainty while we closely watch the spread of Coronavirus (COVID-19), it is with great disappointment that the WordCamp San Diego organizing team has decided to postpone our event originally scheduled for May 2-3, 2020. We plan to reschedule for early 2021.

This is a difficult decision that we did not come to lightly. However we feel that hosting our event at this time is not the best way to support vulnerable populations, including but not limited to the older and immune-compromised individuals within the greater WordPress community.

While WordCamp San Diego may not be happening as planned, we fully support other WordCamps that are moving forward. Our decision to postpone was made because it felt like the responsible choice for our region, and because it allows us the opportunity to bring you the best WordCamp possible in 2021.

Why Postpone to 2021?

We were kindly offered options by our venue to postpone without penalty, and our team is dedicated to returning strong next year. In the 2020 calendar year, there are no available dates at the Scottish Rite Center. So far, this venue has been incredible to plan this event with and we’re looking forward being back in March 2021. Stay tuned for details.

If you would like to join the WordCamp San Diego 2021 organizing team, please reach out to us to get involved.
