<div class="entry-content"> <p>It’s that time again – the month with the Most WordCamps Of The Year, October! This year, there will be a whole 15 WordCamps (including one BuddyCamp). That’s up from last year’s 12 events in October, w00t!</p> <p>A world traveller could have a grand time hopping from WordCamp to WordCamp this month – we have events from Stockholm to the Phillipines, from Gdansk to Mumbai. <a title="WordCamp Cape Town" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130115164918/http://2012.capetown.wordcamp.org/" target="_blank">Cape Town, South Africa</a> kicked us off yesterday, and <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130115164918/http://2012.vegas.wordcamp.org/" target="_blank">Vegas</a> and <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130115164918/http://2012.detroit.wordcamp.org/" target="_blank">Detroit</a> are taking us through this weekend.</p> <p>Then next weekend we get a string of FIVE events! <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130115164918/http://2012.gdansk.wordcamp.org/" target="_blank">Gdansk</a>, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130115164918/http://2012.denver.wordcamp.org/" target="_blank">Denver</a>, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130115164918/http://2012.louisville.wordcamp.org/" target="_blank">Louisville</a>, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130115164918/http://2012.vancouver.wordcamp.org/" target="_blank">Vancouver</a>… and then of course <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130115164918/http://2012.vancouver.buddypress.org/" target="_blank">BuddyCamp Vancouver</a>, the first event to be 100% focused on BuddyPress.</p> <p>The weekend after that, you can shuffle off to <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130115164918/http://2012.buffalo.wordcamp.org/" target="_blank">Buffalo</a>, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130115164918/http://2012.mumbai.wordcamp.org/" target="_blank">Mumbai</a>, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130115164918/http://2012.sofia.wordcamp.org/" target="_blank">Sofia</a>, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130115164918/http://2012.philly.wordcamp.org/" target="_blank">Philadelphia</a>, or <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130115164918/http://2012.stockholm.wordcamp.org/" target="_blank">Stockholm</a>. WordCamps on three continents in one weekend – yes, please!</p> <p>Closing out the whirlwind of October will be WordCamps on almost opposite corners of the globe: the <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130115164918/http://2012.philippines.wordcamp.org/" target="_blank">Philippines</a> and <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130115164918/http://2012.providence.wordcamp.org/" target="_blank">Providence</a>, Rhode Island. Both start with “P” and thus will likely be perfectly pleasing. :)</p> <p>Don’t take your eyes off of WordCamp Central as the holidays approach – there will be plenty of interesting events in November and December of 2012, as well as new WordCamps springing up in 2013. It’s a great time to be part of the incomparable WordPress community!</p> <div class="sharedaddy sd-sharing-enabled"><div class="robots-nocontent sd-block sd-social sd-social-icon-text sd-sharing"><h3 class="sd-title">Share this:</h3><div class="sd-content"><ul><li class="share-twitter"><a rel="nofollow" class="share-twitter sd-button share-icon" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130115164918/http://central.wordcamp.org/news/2012/10/05/holy-october-batman/?share=twitter" title="Click to share on Twitter" id="sharing-twitter-169457"><span>Twitter</span></a></li><li class="share-facebook"><a rel="nofollow" class="share-facebook sd-button share-icon" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130115164918/http://central.wordcamp.org/news/2012/10/05/holy-october-batman/?share=facebook" title="Share on Facebook" id="sharing-facebook-169457"><span>Facebook</span></a></li><li class="share-google-plus-1"><a rel="nofollow" class="share-google-plus-1 sd-button share-icon" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130115164918/http://central.wordcamp.org/news/2012/10/05/holy-october-batman/?share=google-plus-1" title="Click to share on Google+" id="sharing-google-169457"><span>Google +1</span></a></li><li class="share-press-this"><a rel="nofollow" class="share-press-this sd-button share-icon" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130115164918/http://central.wordcamp.org/news/2012/10/05/holy-october-batman/?share=press-this" title="Click to Press This!"><span>Press This</span></a></li><li class="share-end"></li></ul><div class="sharing-clear"></div></div></div></div> </div> </div> <div id="comments"> <div id="respond"> <h3 id="reply-title">Leave a Reply <small><a rel="nofollow" id="cancel-comment-reply-link" href="/web/20130115164918/http://central.wordcamp.org/news/2012/10/05/holy-october-batman/#respond" style="display:none;">Cancel reply</a></small></h3> <form action="https://web.archive.org/web/20130115164918/http://central.wordcamp.org/wp-comments-post.php" method="post" id="commentform"> <p class="comment-notes">Your email address will not be published.
