Hello Wikimedians,
WikiConference North America 2025
<https://wikiconference.org/wiki/2025/Main_Page> from October 16th to 19th,
2025 is just a few weeks away and we're excited to welcome over 300
participants from across the United States, Mexico, Canada, Central
America, and the Caribbean to NYC for 4 days of cultural experiences,
speakers, and workshops! There are a few important announcements to make as
the conference approaches:
- The deadline for in-person conference registration is next week *Tuesday,
September 30th* and tickets are selling out fast. If in-person tickets
are sold out, you are welcome to get a free virtual ticket and participate
in the conference online. Or you can join the waitlist.
- The culture crawl and programs schedule
<https://wikiconference.org/wiki/2025/Program>for WikiConference North
America are live! And registration is open for the culture crawl. Spots are
limited for the culture crawl tours so please be mindful of capacity.
- All registered in-person participants will receive access to an event
manual closer to the conference that will include detailed information
about event logistics and trust and safety. If you are a registered
attendee, please keep an eye out for that in your emails.
- If you signed up to volunteer at the conference, thank you! You should
have received a volunteer survey and calendar invites to the volunteer
orientation calls. If you didn't receive that, please let us know.
*If you have any questions, please send an email to 2025(a)wikiconference.org
<2025(a)wikiconference.org>*.
Thanks,
Pacita
