What about Australia - home of Tim Starling among many others - or even NZ if for some reason we are wanting to only hold these things in developed countries. But i dont see what is wrong with the idea of Brazil, India, SA, Argentina or somewhere similar. There are a reasonable number of wikimedians in the larger countries in the global south.

Dear All,
While I agree with the idea that we should send it all over the world year after year, we North Americans are stuck. My country, the United States, is
very hard to get into and some of our Wikipedians from overseas will have problems getting in, such as those coming from China. So, if the USA is out
of the question, why not try our neighbors up north, Canada? Well, if Wikipedians have been convicted of a crime, they can see them being denied entry. Such crimes include DUI's, can restrict this entry. Plus, Mexico and
other nations in that region might not have what we need. I know Japan can be a good host, but other than Japan and some of Europe, we pretty much can't really go anywhere else.
