Since Northern Ireland has never been home to a WordCamp. We found that a large number of people we spoke to about our WordCamp, all asked the same question…

What happens at a WordCamp?

So, with this in mind we decided to hold a small launch event to help inform people about what they can expect at WordCamp Belfast in October 2016.

We secured the use of a room for free, courtesy of The Ortus Group, Belfast. Huge thanks to them!
We also sourced some sticky-buns, biscuits and also a cake from Smyths Country Bakery, these all went down a treat with everyone. Especially the #WCBelfast and ‘Wapuu of the North‘ printed biscuits.

Among the attendees at our launch event was Ruairí Mac Donnacha from Northern Visions T.V.. Ruairi kindly recorded a piece, which was broadcast on their local station shortly after the event.
You can view the footage on Vimeo.
