Namaskara !
WordPress enthusiasts, developers, designers, freelancers, creators, business owners, students, and contributors have another reason to come together in Bengaluru this November.
WordCamp Bengaluru 2026 will bring together members of the WordPress community from across the city and beyond for two days of learning, networking, collaboration, and open-source contribution.
Taking place on 21–22 November 2026 in Bengaluru, the two-day event will feature insightful sessions, practical workshops, community conversations, networking opportunities, and spaces to connect with people building and contributing to the open web.
From learning new skills to sharing ideas, contributing to WordPress, and meeting fellow community members, WordCamp Bengaluru 2026 is set to be a celebration of the people, ideas, and open-source spirit shaping the WordPress ecosystem.
What Is WordCamp Bengaluru 2026?
WordCamp Bengaluru is a community-driven event centred around WordPress and the wider open web.
Unlike a traditional corporate conference, WordCamp is organised by members of the community and brings together people with different levels of experience.
You could be someone who has just started building websites, a developer working on WordPress projects, a designer creating digital experiences, an agency professional, a founder running a business website, or an open-source contributor.
The idea is simple: bring the WordPress community together, share knowledge, and create opportunities to learn from one another.
The 2026 edition will feature two main tracks and a dedicated Contributor Day, with around 400 attendees expected.

What Makes WordCamp Bengaluru Worth Attending?
WordPress is much bigger than simply creating websites.
It has grown into a massive ecosystem involving development, design, publishing, eCommerce, SEO, marketing, accessibility, performance, security, business, and open-source contribution.
WordCamp Bengaluru provides a place where people working across these areas can meet and exchange ideas.
For professionals, it can be a chance to discover new approaches and connect with others in the industry.
For beginners, it can be a great introduction to the WordPress community.
And for contributors, it offers an opportunity to give something back to the open-source project.
What to Expect at WordCamp Bengaluru 2026
Two Tracks, More Choices
The main conference will run across two tracks, giving attendees the flexibility to choose sessions based on their interests.
Instead of following one fixed programme, you can explore different conversations happening across the WordPress ecosystem and decide what is most relevant to you.
Sessions are expected to cover a broad range of topics connected to WordPress, technology, creativity, business, and the evolving web.
Practical Workshops
The event will also include hands-on workshops.
These sessions are particularly useful for people who prefer learning by doing rather than simply listening to presentations.
Whether you want to improve your technical skills, explore new workflows, or understand a particular aspect of the WordPress ecosystem, workshops offer a more interactive learning experience.
Conversations Beyond the Stage
One of the best parts of any WordCamp often happens outside the scheduled sessions.
The breaks, lunch tables, coffee conversations, and networking opportunities create a space to meet people from different backgrounds and exchange ideas.
You might arrive looking for a session and leave with a new collaborator, client, mentor, friend, or project idea.
Contributor Day: More Than Just Attending
The WordCamp Bengaluru weekend begins with Contributor Day on 21 November 2026.
Contributor Day is an opportunity to actively participate in the WordPress open-source project.
You do not need to be a developer to contribute. WordPress has many areas where people with different skills can participate, including documentation, design, translation, testing, community, and development.
For anyone who has ever wondered how they can contribute beyond simply using WordPress, Contributor Day can be the perfect place to start.
The session is free, but separate registration is required, as the number of participants is limited.
The Contributor Day venue will be announced separately.
The Main Event: A Full Day of WordPress & Community
After Contributor Day, the main WordCamp Bengaluru experience takes place on Sunday, 22 November 2026.
Hosted at St. Joseph’s Boys’ High School (SJBHS), Museum Road, the main event brings the community together for a full day of sessions, workshops, conversations, and networking.
With two tracks running throughout the day, attendees can choose sessions based on their interests and explore different perspectives from across the WordPress ecosystem.
Expect a mix of:
- Insightful talks from WordPress professionals and community members
- Practical, hands-on workshops
- Conversations around development, design, content, SEO, business, eCommerce, accessibility, and emerging technologies
- Networking opportunities with developers, creators, founders, freelancers, and enthusiasts
- Lunch, filter coffee, snacks, and the informal conversations that make WordCamp special
The main event isn’t just about sitting through sessions. It is about learning from others, exchanging experiences, discovering new ideas, and meeting the people behind the WordPress community.
Whether you come with a specific topic in mind or simply want to see what the community is building, Sunday is where the full WordCamp Bengaluru experience comes together.
