It is with heavy hearts that we have made the decision to cancel this year’s WordCamp US event. In light of the continued pandemic, online event fatigue for attendees, organizers, and volunteers, and the desire for WordCamp experiences to be traditional WordCamp experiences, we have made the difficult decision to stop this year’s planning, and cancel WordCamp US 2020.

This decision was made harder by the many amazing talk submissions that we received, the public support we have experienced, and our desire to create good content for you. We have been reminded again and again throughout this year how strong, knowledgeable, creative, and capable our community is.

Every year our WordPress Community delights us in the diversity of our speakers, organizers, volunteers, sponsors, attendees, and the level of passion and support you continue to display for the open source project and each other within the community.

We hope this will not deter you from attending future WordCamps as we eventually return to in-person events. It is our express desire that we all stay healthy and we look forward to meeting each other again in person soon.

And although WCUS will not happen in 2020, several of the organizers will be working with the WordPress Community Team to focus on other formats and ideas for online events, including a 24-hour contributor day, and contributing to the workshops initiative currently being discussed. If you’re interested in getting involved in any of these projects, keep an eye on make.wordpress.org/community! 

Until then, thank you from all of us on the WordCamp US organizing team for your support, your care, and your devotion to WordPress and our community.
