The largest WordPress event of the year, WordCamp Europe 2021 (WCEU), has announced that it has started accepting Sponsor applications for its 9th annual conference that will take place online 7-9 June 2021.
Sponsors play a fundamental role in every WordCamp all over the world. To be honest, it’s only fair to say that there would be no WordCamp Europe without sponsors. It is the best place to get in touch with WordPress users, show appreciation to the community, and at the same time promote your own WordPress-related services and business. It’s the top WordPress Event of the year!
The organizing team of WordCamp Europe 2021 is offering three sponsorship packages: Super Admin, Administrator, and Editor. As always, the number of packages available are limited. This year, sponsors will also be introduced to the main stage. How? TV chat show-style interviews will allow them to showcase their contributions to the WordPress community.

About WordCamp Europe
WordCamp Europe is an informal, community-organized gathering of WordPress enthusiasts – from casual users to Core developers – where people discuss all things WordPress, share ideas and get to know each other.
There’s always a lot going on at WordCamp Europe and this year’s event will be unique. From the many talks taking place across the three days, to the virtual networking rooms, plus the chance to educate yourself by attending one of the many hands-on sessions and workshops.
A full schedule of sessions will be published soon which will allow you to choose which topics interest you. Typically there will be a broad selection of subjects aimed at all levels of WordPress knowledge and experience, following the inclusivity ethos WordPress Community firmly believes in. There will be multiple talks at the same time and split them into ‘tracks’, so you’ll see references to ‘track 1’ and ‘track 2’; helping everyone to easily navigate in the schedule!
In addition to the talks and the chance to chat with other members of the WordPress community, a large number of sponsors will be available to meet and talk to – from very large companies right through to smaller niche ones. The Sponsors page (coming soon) will detail who will be at the event in June.
Every year many people coming along who have only just started with WordPress as well as those who have been using it from the beginning. This a community event aiming to make people communicate, learn something new, and meet new friends!
Why I Love and Support WordPress?
Because WordPress changed my life and gave me back the power to create a new career! You can read all the details about my WordPress journey here.
For many years in a row, I live and work in Athens, Greece. The WordPress Greek Community had been my tribe since 2016. I have attended almost all WordPress meetups in Athens, have been an organizer of WordCamp Athens 2020 (canceled) and WordCamp Greece 2021 Online. Also, I had the opportunity to contribute as a speaker at WordCamp Thessaloniki 2019, became a Media Sponsor at WordCamp Berlin and WordCamp Asia. In 2019, also, organized the first Syros WordPress Meetup.
Before 2016, WordPress had been a major part of my life in California, New York, Paris, and Tokyo. All the Agencies I was working with were using WordPress for their projects. The first time I saw WordPress was two weeks after their launching day, back in 2003. I was impressed by the core structure of this new platform. It was love at first sight. Since then I work every single day with WordPress. I like the mentality of freedom and the fact they treat code like poetry. WordPress rocks!
