Organising WordPress events, do’s and don’ts from one the Lead Organisers of WordCamp Europe 2024

WordCamps don’t organise themselves. There’s a lot to think about and a lot to manage. During this talk I will share my tips and tricks. Including but not limited to:
Tools and systems to keep up to date and organised.
Working with and managing a team of volunteers
How to stay sane and keep the the spirit up

I will also share my biggest time hacking tips because organising a WordPress event can take over your life and lead to burn out and that is not a good thing. Not only useful for event organisers but also applicable to all forms of contributing.

What you’ll learn from this session

With this talk I hope to inspire people to start organising their own community event, for example a WordPress meetup, a local WordCamp or join one of the bigger teams that are already active.
