Planning
Welcome to the planning page for future IndieWebCamps!
The IndieWebCamp community is planning numerous upcoming events, including future IndieWebCamps, regular Homebrew Website Club meetups, Popups, talks, and other proposals — if you'd like to help, please contribute to this page.
See individual IndieWebCamp home pages (typically /Year/City ) for specific camp planning. Related:

Planning
The following IndieWebCamps are currently being planned and need help figuring out a date - help co-organize!
Clustered first by likelihood, including interest level and co-organizers that are regularly active in the community (e.g. in IRC), and then ordered roughly by known date if any, then expected/likely dates (in order to see what else there may be planned nearby or elsewhere)
2023
Let's plan 2023 IndieWebCamps!
We have had a few in-person IndieWebCamps in 2021-2022, notably in Germany, so we should continue planning those. We should also try to plan an in-person IndieWeb Summit 2023.
In order to encourage the most attendance, especially from a distance away from the city, locking in dates as far in advance as possible would be a positive.
And let’s continue planning online IndieWebCamps / Pop-ups, perhaps focused on particular timezones.
Hopefully some areas can organize local in-person IndieWebCamps in 2023 as folks are vaccinated, regional cases are eliminated, by area / city. Keeping that in mind:
If you live in one of the cities / states / countries below and are interested, add your name!
If you know of a suitable venue for hosting, add that as a possibility.
If you have a particular month of the year to recommend, add that!
Please offer your opinion/preference with a nested list item and +1/0/-1 signed!
General planning date notes:
- December is tough due to holidays and lots of other events. Exception: a one day IWC e.g. 2015/SF.
- November first half is the likely last chance to plan an IWC for the year.
Sorted roughly by how "real" a particular potential IWC is looking for a city based on a few fuzzy criteria:
- likely/confirmed co-organizers (2+ required, at least one that is active in IRC/Slack, preferably at least 1 experienced successful organizer, preferably 3-4 total)
- likely/confirmed venue
- likely/confirmed dates
- candidate dates (adjacent to an existing event folks would go to)

Pop-ups
IndieWebCamp Pop-ups 2023 are standalone single topic sessions started in 2020, partly in response to the COVID-19 pandemic that has interrupted our long history of regularly occurring in-person camps in various cities.
While not designed to be the traditional two day camps of sessions and creating, they are meant to foster ongoing discussion and development of topics of interest to the IndieWeb community. In some cases, they can be an easier commitment for attendees than a physical IndieWebCamp.
If you're interested in hosting one, feel free to go to Session Proposals/Brainstorming page and begin to flesh out your event, or ask for help in the IndieWeb chat.
Dusseldorf
Planning for IWC Düsseldorf 2023!
Organizers:
Marc Thiele - working on venue
Tantek Çelik - working with Marc to figure out details to make an IWC happen! (and very likely go in person)
- ...

Contacted:
- Marc Thiele tweeted about the possibility. https://twitter.com/btconf/status/1607846602609139713
- "I am pretty sure we gonna run something on the Wednesday. Speaking to @t for #IndieWebCamp and @jkphl for @a11yclub …" @btconf December 27, 2022

Summit
Planning dates and venue for IndieWebSummit 2023!
11th IndieWebSummit! Venue possibilities (Portland or another city)
- ... none yet that we know of
Dates — dependent on city re-opening and travel restriction lifting! Opinions:
Tantek Çelik — I’m up flexible scheduling (delaying a few months, like possibly as late as October if that means we can do it in-person)
David Shanske - Concur with
Tantek Çelik that postponing to later is superior to losing another in-person event. It would be good if the Summit is the kick-off event to resume in-person get-togethers. Eager to return to Portland.
capjamesg - Keep me in the loop and I may attend!

Restart a Recent City
The following cities / venues hosted IndieWebCamps in the recent past (since 2018), however showed little or no activity in 2022 and thus are parked here until someone steps up to organize them.

If you would like to co-organize an IndieWebCamp in one of the following cities / venues, speak up in our #indieweb-meta chat channel and see if you can find a co-organizer! If you can, we’ll help with the wikifying, and move your city/venue to the 2023 section.

Issues:
- folks either not feeling safe or unwilling to travel to Texas due recent legislation (anti-abortion, anti-CRT, anti-trans, voter discrimination)

- Consider discussing how folx can help protect free speech and amplify BIPOC and LGBTQ+ voices through IW principles rather than simply skipping over potential host cities in red areas.
Venue:
- Top choice at the moment: Easy Tiger East
- renting out main room + outside tables for extra breakout sessions

Help Out
Want to help out with one of those? Say something in IRC and add yourself to the page.
David Shanske is willing to help out with an Indiewebcamp, providing support and planning to the extent possible. This would include some volunteering. Depends on what is needed and when and is willing to try to work with anyone who needs help in the Northeastern United States, and possibly farther afield if sufficient notice.

FAQ
Creator camp not a hackathon
Q: Is IndieWebCamp a hackathon?
A: IndieWebCamps are creator camps focused on helping everyone develop, grow, and advance their personal indieweb presence.
The term "hackathon" has become to mean some sort of short term event where a group of people come up with a typically new project to develop just for the sake of the hackathon, often in a competitive environment, and often for prizes donated by one or more sponsors.
IndieWebCamp resembles that only in the aspect of group collaboration.
- IndieWebCamp encourages you to work on and improve your existing personal site, not just a new site (unless you need a new site!)
- IndieWebCamp encourages you to work on your personal site in a way that encourages longevity and your personal use beyond the camp itself.
- IndieWebCamp focuses on collaboration instead of competition. There are all sorts of different experts at IndieWebCamp and we do our best to both ask questions of each other and help each other!
- The prize(s) you win at IndieWebCamp are your own improved personal website, hopefully with new features you can then use day-to-day after the camp has completed!
As we do "hack" on stuff (our own websites), IndieWebCamps do have a "hack day" component of it, but certainly not "hackathon" in the commonly understood "corporate hackathon" sense.
Past Planning Notes
Past planning notes can be found on each event's planning page, e.g.

- Link the text "originally found here" to the latest, specific revision of this page where the notes last appeared.
- Copy/paste the latest planning notes from this page
- Remove the now-archived planning notes from this page.
