Local Meetups in Atlanta
Atlanta is extremely lucky to have such an active WordPress community scattered around the Metro area. All of the Atlanta Meetups are dedicated to showing the community how to efficiently use WordPress, spark interest in WordPress, and share new ideas about how we can make it better.
If you are interested in attending a local Meetup, here is some additional information about each one within the Atlanta area.
Atlanta Points of Interest
The ATL. A-Town. Hotlanta. Hollywood of the South. These are just some of the nicknames given to the great city of Atlanta, but to us, we’re proud to call it home. This city offers a ton of places to see, both historical and new, for all ages to enjoy. If you’re coming to WordCamp Atlanta early or want to discover the city during your downtime, here’s a list of some noteworthy points of interest to check out while you’re in town.
Coming in from out-of-town? The WordCamp crowd will be staying at Hilton Atlanta.
Unfortunately, the WordCamp room block at the Hilton is already sold out.
Other options for local overnight accommodations are here. Last year, some WordCamp attendees also found places to stay through Airbnb.
For those who have already booked at the Hilton, their local phone number is 404-659-2000. The address is 255 Courtland St. NE, Atlanta GA 30303. Their website is here. Self-parking is $25 a day. Check-in is at 4, and check-out at 11. There’s complimentary wi-fi at the Hilton.
The hotel is just four blocks north of WordCamp Atlanta’s location at Loudermilk Center (see map). And it’s about four blocks from the MARTA Peachtree Center train station in the heart of downtown.
To get from the Atlanta Airport to the hotel, you can take any MARTA train to that station for $2.50, or you can go with Uber, Lyft, a taxi, or an airport shuttle.

Generous volunteers hold the key to the success of just about every WordCamp.
To be sure, a successful WordCamp requires the combination of many factors – yet it is volunteers who often serve as the face of the conference.
Volunteers welcome attendees at the registration table. Volunteers help ensure speakers are in the right room at the right time. Volunteers help attendees find where they are going.
We are currently looking for those who can help make WordCamp Atlanta 2018 an enjoyable experience for all. Being a volunteer is a great way of giving back to the WordPress community, and meeting a lot of great people.
