WordCamp NYC Q&A

We want to take the guess work out of the next couple of days for you, so we have a Q&A below.

Q. What is our venue and address?

A. Our WordCamp venue is Convene. Convene has several locations in NYC. Our WordCamp is located at 117 West 46th Street in Midtown Manhattan. An important landmark for finding our location is Bryant Park.

Q. How do we get to Convene?

A. We’ve got you covered because we are in a highly transit oriented part of the City. You can take Subway trains 1, 2, 3 or the S (shuttle from Grand Central) to the Times Square Subway Station. We’re a 15 minute walk for NYC Penn Station. Look at our Map here: https://2018.nyc.wordcamp.org/location/

Q. When does registration begin?

A. Registration begins at 7:30am both Saturday and Sunday.

Q. Will there be opening and closing remarks?

A. We will have opening remarks in the morning at 8:30am Saturday. We won’t have closing remarks. Instead, our last session will lead into Contributor Day. We think that’s a great way to pull our community together at the end of our these two exciting days together.

Q. Who are the speakers and where are their bios?

A. We have over 40 speakers. Here are their bios: https://2018.nyc.wordcamp.org/speakers/#wcorg-speaker

A. Great question. We’ve got you covered on all fronts. There is no limit on coffee and snacks.

Q. Where is the After Party?

A. Our After Party is at MK Karaoke located in Korea Town. Bring your badge. It’s your ticket in. The address is 11 W 32nd St, New York, NY 10001. You can take an Lyft, cab or walk over. Give yourself 30 minutes for the walk.

Q. When is Contributor Day?

A. Contributor Day starts on Sunday at 2:30pm and ends at 4:30pm.

We hope we answered most of your questions above.
