Hello everyone,
I am very excited to share that Wikimania 2024 will be hosted in the city of Kraków in Poland https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Krak%C3%B3w! [1] Kraków had a strong submission https://wikimania.wikimedia.org/wiki/2024:Expressions_of_Interest/Central_Eastern_Europe,_Poland,_Cracow with a collaborative design and an experienced, enthusiastic team supporting it [2]. At the crossroads of history, culture, and technology, we are confident that the impact of Wikimania will be great for our projects, the movement in general, and especially, local communities in the Central and Eastern European (CEE) region.

Bringing our movement’s beloved event to life is not simple and we took many criteria into consideration. We were grateful for the expressions of interest https://wikimania.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Wikimania_2024_expressions_of_interest received for hosting Wikimania in 2024, 2025, and beyond [4]. Announcing host cities this far in advance is a new approach https://diff.wikimedia.org/2022/10/27/wikimania-welcoming-expressions-of-interest-for-2024/ to organizing Wikimania we are exploring [5]. In addition to the support we provide as the stewards of Wikimania https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimania_Committee, together with the Foundation’s Movement Communications team https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Communications/Movement_Communications, we see great value in facilitating more time for organizers so they can learn from each other in practice and strengthen their capacity [6], [7]. We hope to announce the hosts of Wikimania in 2025 and 2026 in the coming months or at Wikimania 2023 in Singapore.
Once again, wholehearted congratulations to the 2024 Wikimania team. We know you will do an excellent job welcoming our global family to your timeless city. And to our global family, we hope that you are as excited as we are returning to the vibrant CEE region after 14 years. Looking forward to collaborating with you all on wiki and in person.
My best wishes for all,
Phoebe (Wikimania Steering Committee)
