Although we strive to make attending OggCamp as accessible as possible, it does cost a considerable amount of money to put on. Each year we pay for venue hire, technical equipment, food, transport, stationary and a whole host of other random things. In order to do that we rely on the support of some wonderful sponsors. This year, we’re happy to welcome Nexteam, Collabora Online and Codethink as Gold-level sponsors for OggCamp. Special thanks go to United Tech and Allied Workers (UTAW), our Pinnacle sponsor this year. Thanks to them for helping make OggCamp happen!
After 5 years away, OggCamp is back in 2024!
OggCamp Tickets are now available! Visit tickets to find out more and secure your place.
We’re at The Manchester Conference Centre in the Pendulum Hotel near Picadilly Station the weekend of October 12th and 13th 2024.
