In 2016, if all things go right, Mumbai will be the first city in India to host WordCamps three years in a row. We missed a year in 2013 but it will also be the only city in India to host four WordCamps overall.
So it is safe to say, Mumbai has fallen for WordPress and the community is very vibrant just like the city.
Unique City
It is a very unique city with an unique attitude, unique culture and life is often lived in the fast lane. For visitors who visit Mumbai and get astounded by the sheer humanity they see on the roads, wait till you get into a local train. 😉
Mumbai houses probably the largest film industry in the world, it is the commercial capital of India and the state capital of Maharashtra. It has a national park inside the city, ancient Buddhist caves from almost two millennia ago and people from several dozen ethnicities call it home .
We have food, culture and lore that will fascinate and inspire you. It can be fast, intimidating, crowded and hot along with humid, but we Mumbaikars love it. Though everyone loves their own city, we often call our Mumbai, the most unique city in the world!
Unique WordCamp
The WordPress community in Mumbai is also unique. It has college students, big and small publishers, journalists, writers, social activists, freelancers and more in huge numbers and many of them using WordPress.
Hence we need your help! To make Mumbai WordCamp 2016 a lot like the city. The most unique in the world!
