The Multi-Event Sponsors – we couldn’t do it without these guys

Sponsors

WordCamp Sheffield is the first event of it’s kind in the region and has benefited from some amazing sponsorship to help pay for the venue, food, drinks and everything else that’s needed for to make this type of event happen.

But there’s a special type of sponsor that deserves some real love from not just the WordPress Sheffield community but the WordPress & WordCamp community as well.

The multi-event sponsors, they rock!

Every WordCamp has the option to take advantage of ‘Multi-Event Sponsorship’ – these awesome businesses provide you with the peace of mind that you need to get your WordCamp on it’s feet – without these sponsors I don’t thing I would have slept quite as easy 🙂

So to 34sp.com, Bluehost, Code Poet and WPML.org I say thank you for your support and we’ll make sure to give you some big love on the day 🙂

WPML makes it easy to build multilingual sites and run them. It’s powerful enough for corporate sites, yet simple for blogs.

Getting to the venue

Info

Take a walk, it’s good for you:

On the Saturday the best way to get to the venue is to get the train into Sheffield station and have a leisurely 20-or-so minute walk through Sheffield:

Parking

If you’re driving there is a Q Park with over 500 spaces just around the corner from the venue:

What time should you arrive?

Ticket registration will start at 9am with the first session starting at 9:45. When you arrive there will be coffee and refreshments but no breakfast (sorry!) so make sure to grab something on the way!
