We’re super proud to announce our diverse mix of panelists who will be covering Q&A sessions around Core, Accessibility and Recruiting For Your Business.
Hotels & Accommodation
Last year, WordCamp London’s 2015 organisers created a comprehensive list of hotels within a walking distance or tube ride away from the venue.
We’ve republished it here for you and hope it’s just as helpful this time – but don’t thank us, thank them!
Please note that the hotels are in no particular order and the travel time shown is based on Google Maps calculations.

If you have so much as an inkling to speak, take a look at our case study below from a previous WordCamp London speaker, Jo Waltham.
