Objectives for WordCamp Europe 2024
Venue: The biggest WordCamp Europe ever organised!
The Lingotto Exhibition Centre comprises four halls, spanning approximately 60,000 sqm and accommodating up to 8,000 people; however, considering past editions, we anticipate an attendance ranging around 3,000 participants.
(subject to change)
The Sponsors area will hold up to 100 booths, giving the suitable space for concentrating the key players of the worldwide WordPress Community. The 3D drawing is a provisional layout; it’s not yet set in stone and subject to change. But we just want to give you a sense of the great space that we have available!
Looking for inspiration? Check out what our Sponsors got up to last year in Athens – in the WordCamp Europe Flickr Gallery!
Spaces are limited and go on a first-come, first-served basis*. 90% of the booths are sold within the first 3 weeks after the Call for Sponsors is announced.
*Does not apply to the SMB package. Please check the relevant package details for more information.
Sustainability: Let’s make this the most sustainable WordCamp Europe!
For several years, WordCamp Europe has considered the impact of our event, and therefore a considerable amount of work and thought into becoming a sustainable event has taken place.
The good news is that you can easily join our efforts. Swag and handouts from Sponsors are one of the best parts of WordCamp Europe, right?
We’d love for you to get creative and think about innovative, eco-friendly giveaways that add value for our attendees.
Feel free to reach out if you would like us to help you find inspiration.
Now, on to the various sponsorship options available and the benefits associated with each tier of participation. We recommend you be mindful of the selection you are making as it represents not only a financial investment but also a commitment to make the best of the event for your brand.

It’s the perfect sponsoring option to show off your product demonstrations and demos while connecting with new and existing users.
Note:
For WordCamp Europe 2024, we’re embracing the original vision for this sponsorship tier, which is dedicated to small businesses eager to promote their company, product, or service. We have set guidelines to ensure this opportunity serves its intended participants:
- You should generate most of your revenue from WordPress or the ecosystem
- Your revenue estimations for 2023 should be less than €2m
- You should employ less than 50 employees
These criteria align with the European Commission’s definition of a small business, serving as flexible benchmarks rather than rigid rules. We encourage you to apply if your company aligns with the spirit of these guidelines.
Additionally, selection for this sponsorship level will not be based on a ‘first-come, first-served’ basis but rather on finding the best fit for the event. To ensure swift processing and minimise wait times, applications will be reviewed in batches. While this approach means there’s no rush, submitting your application earlier may increase your likelihood of acceptance, as the assessment will be ongoing.
This package includes:
Booth details
- Point of presence (4 square metres) at the conference expo area. A table and two chairs will be provided, for two days. Banner print and setup are all handled by the WordCamp Europe team. You can bring swag & a laptop that fits on the table (no other furniture/space permitted)
