WordCamp Europe 2026 is set for June 4-6 in Kraków, Poland, and, if you’re attending, the Gravity team will be there to meet you in person.
Before we head off to Kraków, we wanted to publish a quick overview of everything that will be going on at WordCamp Europe 2026 (WCEU 2026).
We’ll cover how you can meet the Gravity team in person, some of the talks and workshops that we’re most excited for, and some special Gravity deals and giveaways that you can take advantage of.
Let’s get into it…
What’s on at WordCamp Europe 2026?
In total, WordCamp Europe will have over 50+ different talks and workshops over the two main session days.
On each day, there will be:
- Two simultaneous tracks for talks
- Two simultaneous tracks for workshops
So, at any given time, there could be four different events going on!
You can view the full schedule for both days and all tracks here, but here are some of the talks that we’re the most excited for…
June 5
June 5 will get started with registration from 8 to 9 AM and opening remarks from 9 to 9:30 AM.
The different tracks won’t break into full gear until around 10:15 AM. At the end of the day, the last talks will finish up around 5:15 PM.
Here are some talks and workshops that stood out to us from the June 5th schedule:
- Agentic AI & WordPress: from prompts to tools & systems (workshop) – this hands-on workshop from Vito Peleg will help you learn how to use AI to create a real system that “audits a live WordPress site, validates the results, and generates structured tickets.” If you want to start building using AI, this workshop should give you the basic skills that you need to implement your own projects.
- Stress testing and scaling WordPress on a $12 VPS (talk) – this talk from Nedko Hristov will cover a live-fire DevOps exercise of stress-testing a WordPress stack on a $12 VPS. It includes visualizing bottlenecks in Grafana and “implementing a hybrid-static leap.” If you’re interested in DevOps and scaling WordPress, this looks like a great one to attend.
- The clarity dividend: accessibility as an SEO strategy (talk) – this talk from Anne-Mieke Bovelett will go on at the same time as the previous talk on scaling WordPress, so you’ll have to choose between them. You’ll learn how accessibility can benefit your site in all kinds of ways, and you’ll also leave with a practical road map to start making your site more accessible.
- AI search: why your whole company should care (talk) – this talk from Emma Young digs into AI search, including why you/your company should care about AI search and some quick ways to start optimizing for it. Regardless of your personal feelings on AI search, it’s not going away any time soon – so don’t let your company fall behind!
- Get your plugin ready for submission to the directory (workshop) – if you’re a WordPress developer looking to launch your own plugin(s), this workshop from David Perez and Fran Torres will cover everything that you need to know. Learn what reviewers look for, how to avoid common issues, and how to streamline your code for a faster approval (and a better plugin).
Again, these are just a few of the talks and workshops that jumped out to us. Click this link to see the full schedule for June 5th across both talk and workshop tracks.
June 6
On June 6, the different tracks will start a bit earlier, with two talks and one workshop kicking off at 9 AM.
The day will end with Matt Mullenweg’s closing keynote from 4:15 to 5:15 PM, and then closing remarks from 5:15 to 5:45 PM.
Here are some talks and workshops that stood out to us from the June 6th schedule:
- Stop positioning into obscurity to unlock growth (talk) – if you’re trying to market a product, this talk from Liza Bogatyrev of One.com will help you understand what can cause issues with revenue growth and product adoption.
- Three levels of atomic product-market fit (talk) – if you’re building products for WordPress, this talk from Debbie Levitt will teach you about the three different levels of product-market fit (PMF) – macro (market-wide value), meso (features and services), and micro (interactions, moments, and experiences).
- Build your first AI-powered WordPress plugin (workshop) – as the name suggests, this workshop from Jonathan Bossenger will teach you how to build a working AI-powered plugin from scratch. If you want to start building but you’re not sure where to begin, this workshop is for you.
- AI won’t save your marketing (but it might save your time and money) (talk) – in another one of the many AI-focused talks this year, Monika Dimitrova will discuss how AI can be a tool to amplify your existing strategies (rather than a solution to fix weak strategies) and how small businesses can use AI as an equalizer.
- The hidden DDoS threat in WordPress: abusing the search endpoint (talk) – if you’re interested in WordPress security, this talk from Samuel Silva will dig into how malicious actors are weaponizing the WordPress search endpoint for DDoS attacks. Then, you’ll also learn some practical defense strategies that you can employ to protect your sites.
- Documentation as a love language for the future you (talk) – most people don’t love writing documentation, but this talk from Birgit Olzem will teach you why documentation is a strategic benefit, rather than just a cost overhead. It will also cover some practical tips for more effectively creating documentation.
- The fight for the open web is a lie (talk) – this provocatively titled talk from Jonathan Desrosiers will dig into the true threat to an open web, and how to avoid losing the battle against closed-source alternatives.
