Welcome to WordCamp Canada 2025

WordCamp Canada • Ottawa, Ontario • October 16-17

We’re thrilled to welcome you to WordCamp Canada 2025, happening October 16-17, 2025, at Carleton University in Ottawa!

This year, we’re bringing the energy of a university campus—risk-taking, innovation, and bold ideas—into the WordPress community.

Get ready for an unforgettable experience filled with learning, networking, and collaboration as we explore the future of the web together.

What to Expect

Whether you’re a seasoned WordPress veteran or discovering the platform for the first time, WordCamp Canada is your space to dive into the next era of digital experiences.

Expect cutting-edge discussions on AI, the future of the open web, and the evolving role of WordPress in a rapidly changing digital landscape.

This year we’re looking for insightful sessions from industry leaders, hands-on workshops, and panel discussions that explore WordPress in a post-website era. Stay tuned for a call for speakers.

A Return to Campus

Think back to your time in high school or university—the excitement of new ideas, late-night debates, and pushing boundaries. A place where curiosity and experimentation thrived, where no challenge felt insurmountable. That’s the energy we’re bringing to WordCamp Canada 2025. Just like on campus, this is where the future begins.

Why This Moment Matters

The digital world is shifting:

  • AI is reshaping content, code, and creativity at an unprecedented scale.
  • Users expect seamless, omnichannel experiences—apps, social, search, and beyond.
  • The open web is more important than ever as platforms tighten control.

WordPress is at the centre of these changes, and this is our opportunity to shape its future. How do we ensure content remains independent, accessible, and high-quality in an AI-driven world? How do we push innovation forward while keeping the web open for all?

Get Involved

WordCamp is powered by the community, and we want you to be part of it. Whether by volunteering, speaking, sponsoring, or simply sharing your insights, there are many ways to contribute. Stay tuned for updates on speaker submissions, ticket sales, and sponsorship opportunities.

Join Us!

Mark your calendars, pack your plaid, and get ready for an incredible WordCamp Canada experience at Carleton University. The future of WordPress starts here. We can’t wait to see you in Ottawa!

  • Does Your Tiny Business Really Need to Worry about Accessibility?

    I’ll admit it: when I started the research for this article, I expected to find stories of altruism or political grandstanding. I was surprised by what I found. For instance, did you know that back in 1997 our very own Royal Bank of Canada installed the world’s first talking ATM in an Ottawa branch? In…

  • Why I need WordLand

    I’m primarily a writer, my podcasts reflect that, so most of the work I do on each podcast, beyond recording the audio, is in writing the show notes.  I have a template the writing and audio flow through. Fairly standard stuff, the same approach used by Tumblr and many other blogging systems, including UserLand's Manila…

  • My blogroll is a feed reader

    The nice thing about a blogroll is that it can become a feed reader, in a very small space. It's been on my blog home page for over a year, and I use it a lot, largely because I have to go to that page a lot to see how something I've written looks. Then…
