Umbraco DK Festival
NOVEMBER 02 2010First off I want to give a big shout-out to Warren Buckley and Adam Shallcross + the rest of the CogWorks for putting together the Umbraco UK Festival in London. What a great event! It was a really interesting and inspirational day of all things Umbraco. Incredible lineup of sessions and a great turn out.
Now its time for the DK Festival in Copenhagen, and even though we won't be able to have two tracks we still have a great lineup! Its really exciting seeing this little festival come to life, and I'm really looking forward to November 19th where the Umbraco DK Festival will take place. I hope to see a lot of Danish Umbracians show up and support the Danish community.
Here is the invitation to the event (in Danish):
Fredag d.19.November er første gang vi afholder en Umbraco Festival i København. Eventet er arrangeret af det danske Community og takket være en række sponsorer vil det være gratis at deltage i dette event. Vi har en række interessante sessions på programmet, en keynote fra Niels Hartvig og en speciel gæst, som vi mener er en tur til København værd.
Eventet finder sted hos 1508, som også lagde lokaler til Umbraco's 5 års fødselsdag.
Jeg ser frem til at se en masse danske Umbracians til dette event :)
It might seem a bit strange that a majority of the information about the event is in English when presentations will all be in Danish, but I wanted the rest of the community (that doesn't speak Danish) to be able to follow along in what we are doing in Denmark, and who knows maybe we will be able to create a bigger event in the future. Maybe a Scandinavian festival :) Or if nothing else inspire other local communities to create their own Umbraco Festival.
We have an official site up and running (courtesy of The CogWorks and Warren Buckley) with information about all the sessions and the venue (@ 1508 A/S) in Copenhagen, so go check it out: www.umbracodkfestival.dk. A lot of people have already signed up, so if you want to join us for a full day of Umbraco Awesomeness then hurry up and sign-up before its too late. The event ends around 17.00, but there will be socializing afterwards for those that want to stick around and we will probably grab a bit to eat later on and you are more then welcome to join.
And if you live in or aournd Copenhagen or maybe just visiting for the weekend there is a post festival workshop (XSLT Ping Pong fest) taking place the day after the Festival Saturday the 20th of November from 10:00 am. Sign-up via our umbraco: http://our.umbraco.org/events/xslt-ping-pong-fest.
