Afterparty at Catalyst

After an exciting day of WordCamp sessions, come join us for an afterparty/reception at Catalyst Restaurant. Catalyst is just a short walk from the venue.

Details:

  • We start at 7pm, end at 10pm
  • There’ll be a wine & beer cash bar*
  • Appetizers (sliders, mac & cheese, hummus & veggies, etc)

Bring your badge, that’s your ticket into the afterparty.

*The cash bar will only accept cash, they won’t have a card machine in our event’s room. There’s an ATM across the street.

A big thanks to Oomph for sponsoring the afterparty!

WordCamp Boston is happening this weekend!

Everyone ready? We’re planning an excellent day of talks, followed by food, drinks, and socializing at Catalyst (more info on this later this week).

WordCamp2013_021Our doors will open at 8am for registration, and we’ll have coffee and snacks set out, sponsored by GoWP.

We’ll have lunch at 12 noon, sponsored by SiteGround. It’s supposed to be a nice day (even a bit cool!) so we encourage taking your lunch boxes outside and enjoying the weather.

If you can’t make it, or can’t get enough WordCamp, you can also follow along on twitter using the #wcbos hashtag.

Finally, we’ll be having a contributor day on Sunday, to take advantage of all the WordPress excitement. This’ll be starting at 11am in WorkBar Cambridge. If you’re interested in coming, please fill out this quick form (not required to attend).

Edit: We’ve just added parking info for Saturday to the Location page.
