About WordPress Meetups

WordPress Meetups are local, community-driven events where people who use, build with, or are curious about WordPress come together to learn and connect.

They’re part of the broader WordPress Foundation community program and are typically organized via Meetup under the official WordPress chapter system.

WordPress Meetups are open to everyone:

  • Beginners learning to build their first website
  • Developers building custom themes & plugins
  • Designers and UX folks
  • Marketers and SEO specialists
  • Agency owners & freelancers
  • WooCommerce store owners

Whether you’re technical or non-technical, there’s usually something relevant.


📚 What happens at a Meetup?

Typical formats include:

  • 🎤 Talks & presentations (e.g., performance, security, SEO, Gutenberg, WooCommerce)
  • 💬 Panel discussions
  • 🛠 Workshops / hands-on sessions
  • 🤝 Networking sessions
  • ☕ Casual co-working or “coffee & WordPress” meetups

Some groups are highly technical; others focus more on business, marketing, or content.
