The Call for Volunteers is open

WordCamps are only possible thanks to the kind people who volunteer to make it happen. Volunteering is a great way to contribute to WordPress and to get an inside view in case you are considering organising a similar event in the future. So would you like to help organise WordCamp Nordic 2019?

As a volunteer, you will receive a free ticket, an exclusive t-shirt for volunteers, and an invitation to the volunteers dinner. Volunteers are not expected to work the whole day; we want you to be able to enjoy some of the talks too!

More information and application form.
