Hard to believe a week has passed since we were all in Oslo for WordCamp Norway 2015. It was an incredible event and have to say probably the best WordCamp Norway yet!

We wanted to say thank you again for making this event possible. Thank you to our sponsors, speakers, volunteers, organizers, and most of all our attendees.

Over the next few weeks we’ll post an event re-cap post here along with a survey so we can start thinking about how we can make next year’s event even better for you all.

We really hope you enjoyed WordCamp Norway 2015!

Bye for now 🙂

Winter Day & WordCamp After Hours

Posted on 29/01/2015 by Scott Basgaard

WordCamp isn’t over after our main schedule of events on Saturday and we hope you can join us on Sunday for some more social activities and an evening of more WordPress!

Winter Day

Last year a few of us went up to the old bobsled run at Frognerseteren for some great fun. We had so much fun that we’d like to invite everyone up there on Sunday afternoon for some sledding (weather permitting) and we can grab some lunch at the restaurant up there.

A few of us were brave enough to venture out into the cold at WordCamp Norway 2014.

WordCamp After Hours

If you’re still around Oslo on Sunday evening and haven’t gotten enough WordPress we’ll be meeting at Comfort Hotel XPRESS to have what we’re calling “WordCamp After Hours”.

WordCamp After Hours at Comfort Hotel XPRESS in Oslo

Quite a bit of us will still be in the area and figured we could make use of this space to have a meetup style event and contribute back to WordPress, co-work, mingle some more and use their projectors for lightning talks (come prepared) and show & tell. You can sign-up here.

We hope you can make it!

What Our Speakers are Saying About #WCNO

Posted on 23/01/2015 by Scott Basgaard

Have you taken a look at the official schedule for WordCamp Norway 2015 yet?!

We’ve got an amazing speakers list lined up for you this year with a mix of local rockstars in the community and a handful of well-known internationals flying in from all over the world to join us in Oslo for an exciting event.

We asked a few of the speakers what they were looking forward to at WordCamp Norway and here’s what they said:

Tom Nowell

“I hear every year Norway was awesome, and I’ve always wanted to visit, and now I’m actually going!!!!”

Bjørn Johansen

“WordCamp Norway is so full of awesomeness there is no way I’m not going to be there!”

Andrey “Rarst” Savchenko

“It is my favorite WordCamp yet. I had a wonderful time last year and looking forward to coming back.”

Veselin Nikolov

“The awesome WordCamp Norway team is giving me the chance to convince you that leading is a skill, not a talent.”

Niklas Högefjord

“WordCamp Norway has always been a great WordCamp to attend. Well organized, speakers and attendees from different countries, great afterparty and friendly people.”

Andreas Beining

“The largest gathering of Norway’s WordPress community. How can that be wrong?!”

Jenny Wong

“I’m excited to attend WordCamp Norway because I’ve heard so many wonderful things about the community in Norway and would love to meet them all in person!”

Marko Heijnen

“They say a day without laughter is a day wasted, the same goes for a year without a WordCamp Norway.
It’s an incredible experience with every time new things to enjoy.”
