Your WordCamp 2017 hosts : Codebase

Along with the volunteers and sponsors of WordCamp Edinburgh 2017, it is the venue that has made this year’s event so successful!

Codebase venue

For those of you who have not already worked it out, Codebase is an incubator for digital projects and startups at the heart of Edinburgh, providing co-working, hot desking and collaboration spaces for web professionals. As such, it’s the perfect fit with the WordCamp ethos.

Codebase’s stunning location, below Edinburgh Castle, has provided the ideal backdrop for two inspirational days of WordPress conversation.

The team at Codebase have been fantastic partners in the run up to, and during, this year’s event – pre-empting and meeting all our needs, and regularly exceeding our expectations!  We couldn’t have run such a smooth WordCamp without the help of the Codebase team.

In the months to come, we hope to work further with Codebase on our monthly Edinburgh WordPress Meetup events – but more on that soon!

In the meantime, our heartfelt thanks to the Codebase team for making WordCamp Edinburgh 2017 such a special and memorable event!

A big THANK YOU to our Red Squirrel Sponsors!

WordCamp Edinburgh has been made possible through the generous support of our sponsors.  Our Unicorn sponsor, and our Stag, Salmon and Community Sponsors help us to subsidise the price of tickets for attenders.

Red Squirrel Sponsors 2017

Our Red Squirrel microsponsors are also hugely important.  They have paid the full value of their conference tickets to help support our conference and keep the prices low for everyone.

So, please give a big round of applause to these heroes:

A shout out to our Stag, Salmon & Community Sponsors

Any successful WordCamp event relies on the tireless efforts of many people, as mentioned in our previous post.

However, it just wouldn’t be possible to host a WordCamp event without the support of Sponsors, who allow us to keep the ticket prices as low as possible for attendees, to ensure the event is accessible to the widest possible WordPress community of users, designers and developers.

With that in mind, WordCamp Edinburgh would like to send out a big THANK YOU to all the fantastic organisations that have supported WordCamp Edinburgh 2017.

Introducing 34sp.com – Our Unicorn Sponsor!


We are delighted to host the third WordCamp in Edinburgh.  The conference builds on the success of events in 2012 and 2015.

No WordCamp can exist without the assistance of the wide WordPress community – which includes the organising committee, speakers and volunteers (all of whom give their time and expertise freely).

However, it is the event Sponsors that allow us to think and plan BIG, to host a high-quality event, and to ensure that we keep the ticket price as low as possible for attenders.  This year, the ticket price of £20 will get you a two-day conference pass featuring over 20 speakers, a stunning WordCamp Edinburgh 2017 Wapuunicorn t-shirt, and VIP entry to the infamous after-show party!

So, we want to say a very special thank you to our fantastic event sponsors, starting with our Unicorn level sponsor, 34sp.com.

34sp.com are based in Manchester, UK, and offer domain registration and quality web hosting services, with a focus on WordPress hosting.

The 34sp.com team will also be leading sessions during the weekend.  On Saturday morning, Kayleigh Thorpe talked about “How to make WordPress fly with Jetpack”, and Tim Nash will showcase Practical WordPress Security Tips” at a session on Sunday afternoon.

Go visit 34sp.com’s friendly team at their stall in Track 2.  They’ll be waiting to answer your questions, and provide you with some high-quality Swag!
