The general sessions on Saturday and Sunday will be held in the Golden Eagle Ballrooms.

Please check out the Location page for the address, directions, campus maps, and more.

Where can I Park?

All attendees are guaranteed free parking in parking Structure C.

On Saturday and Sunday you must print your parking pass and display it on your dashboard! If you do not print your parking pass and display it on your dashboard you will be ticketed! Visit the Location and Parking page and see the “Parking” section to download your printable parking pass.

The printable parking pass is not valid for Beginner Day on Friday. Beginner Day attendees should retrieve their parking pass from the the parking information booth. Provide the attendant with your name and let them know you are there for WordCamp Los Angeles Beginner Day

Should I attend on Saturday and Sunday?

There is some terrible rumor or assumption spread around some WordCamps that all the important stuff happens on Saturday and Sunday is just a fluff day. 

THIS IS NOT TRUE!

If you decide not to attend on Sunday you’re missing out on half of the great speakers and half of the time you can spend getting to know your fellow WordPressers.

What about the After Party sponsored by GoDaddy?

Every single attendee is invited to party with us at Blue Cow Kitchen (right by Angels Flight in Downtown Los Angeles). Grab some appetizers, drinks, make a mess playing giant Jenga & Connect4, get your face painted, and hang out with fellow attendees, speakers, and sponsors all for free by GoDaddy, our after party sponsor!

Check out our blog post for details about the after party.

Can I attend Beginner Day sponsored by Dreamhost?

If you purchased a General Admission ticket you cannot attend Beginner Day and you will be sent away if you show up.

Only attendee’s who purchased a ticket which explicitly says “Beginner’s Day” will be admitted on Friday.
