Sponsors make the WordCamp world go around! In only two days, WordCamp Sacramento is welcoming 350 WordPressers to the Sacramento State Alumni Center for a weekend of WordPress-focused learning, networking, and fun — and we wouldn’t be able to host this fantastic event without the generosity of our 2016 Sponsors.
Because of our sponsors, we have been able to keep the ticket price low and affordable, at only $40.00 for the entire event experience, including access to all Saturday and Sunday sessions, free swag and an event tee, a catered lunch, coffee all day, snacks, an After Party and more!
Be sure you take a moment to thank our sponsors!
