The past few weeks have been busy around here! We’ve been trying to find a place in Las Vegas that would provide us with everything we were looking for in a location for WordCamp. With so much conference space in Las Vegas, you’d think it’d be a snap to find a place to host a gathering for 200 people. But the hard work has paid off. The contract has been signed, the location and date are now set!
WordCamp Las Vegas 2010 will be held on October 23rd, 2010 at Palace Station Hotel and Casino!
Initially we were looking to hold the event on the following weekend. Unfortunately, Palace Station was already booked. I made the mistake of trying to find a different hotel to host the event instead of just looking at the calendar and selecting a different date. After nearly a month of research, I went back to the team at Palace Station and they were able to fit us in one week earlier than originally planned. For all the benefits hosting at Palace Station gives us, changing the date became the obvious choice. We are thrilled to be heading back!
We have 20 rooms reserved for our group for out of town guests (or you locals who want a weekend away from home). You can book online using this link or call 800-6-STATIONS and tell them you are with WordCamp Las Vegas to reserve your room.
We’ll be opening registration for WordCamp on 8/23. Until then we are actively looking for both sponsors and speakers! As the time gets closer we’ll also be looking for volunteers to help out on the day of the event! If you are interested in being a part of WordCamp Las Vegas in any capacity, please let us know!
Cheers!
Yay!
We’re thrilled to welcome you all back to Palace Station. We’re WordPress users, too.
Looking very forward to it! We enjoyed Palace Station last year and are glad to be visiting there again.
I’m really looking forward to this. Should be a ton of fun!
We’re looking forward to this event. Thanks for all the info!
I am a local Las Vegas blogger and I would LOVE to give everyone from out of town some unique suggestions at every speed and price range of what to do during your visit.
Check out my blog. I am also re-tweeting this event to blogging performers I know to try to get some interesting attendees.
