So about our venue…
There has been some concern about the front page of this site not listing our venue (even though we did have one listed on the Eventbrite registration page)…
Well, it got us to thinking about how to make WordCamp Birmingham unique and fun for those participating. The result is that we are going to be using two separate venues over the two days of the conference. We’re excited to be able to announce the venue for Saturday’s activities right now:
the Martha Moore Sykes Studio @ the Virginia Samford Theatre on Birmingham’s Southside.
Interior of Martha Moore Sykes Studio @ Virginia Samford Theatre.
We’re also excited to have the prospect of using Caldwell Park for our lightning talks – weather permitting. Don’t worry, there’s an on-site plan B too.
We’re awaiting final confirmation on Sunday’s location (which we hope to be able to share info about tomorrow – but it may be Monday), but with that news and the release of the preliminary schedule and a more detailed speakers list, we hope that you’ll consider registering as quickly as possible (since we’re limiting registration to 125).
We’ll have one more announcement tomorrow about presentations, both formal and lightning talk based.
