In its third year, WordCamp Sacramento keeps getting bigger and better. WordCamp Sacramento 2017 will be held September 16-17, 2017 at the Sacramento Convention Center, just steps from the California State Capital, historic attractions, and amazing restaurants, as well as mere blocks from the brand new Golden 1 Center and K Street Mall.
WordCamp Sacramento 2017 will be using the second floor meeting space. We are thrilled to expand the event to include a full day Beginner Track on Saturday teaching you how to use WordPress, two mixed tracks of sessions running all day Saturday, and three mixed tracks of sessions on Sunday.
