About
WordCamp Galicia 2026 is a volunteer-organised WordPress conference held under the WordCamp programme supported by the global WordPress community. It brings together developers, designers, content creators, marketers and site owners who work with WordPress, and its programme spans web development, design and digital marketing, with content offered in Galician and Spanish. The event runs from 16 to 18 October 2026 at the Faculty of Law of the University of A Coruña. The main programme of talks takes place on Saturday, 17 October, followed by a Contributor Day on Sunday morning, when participants help improve WordPress itself. The organisers expect around 300 attendees and approximately 20 activities. Under the slogan of a WordCamp where no one is a stranger, the event emphasises inclusion, offering a children's play area so families can attend and a solidarity initiative called Do_action. Attendees can learn from sessions covering both technical and business sides of WordPress, meet local agencies and freelancers, and take a first step into open-source contribution during Contributor Day. The relaxed, community-led format makes it approachable for beginners as well as seasoned professionals. For the Galician WordPress community, the event strengthens local networks and connects them with the wider open-source project.

Planning your trip to A Coruña
Contains sponsored linksWordCamp Galicia brings the WordPress community to A Coruña over a mid-October weekend, when Spain's Atlantic north is mild but changeable: think 15–19°C, sunny spells and passing showers rolling in off the ocean. The city sits on a narrow peninsula, so the sea is never far, and a seafront promenade loops most of the way around it. Nicknamed the City of Glass for its white-framed glazed balconies, it pairs Roman heritage with a serious seafood culture and relaxed tapas evenings.
Getting there & around
A Coruña Airport (LCG) lies about 10 km south of the city, with domestic routes and some European links; a local bus reaches the centre in roughly 20–30 minutes and taxis take around 15 minutes. Santiago de Compostela (SCQ) offers more flights and is connected to A Coruña by fast trains of about half an hour from Santiago station. Vigo (VGO) and Porto (OPO) are further options for those combining the trip with the region.
Skip the taxi queue — pre-book a fixed-price airport transfer with Kiwitaxi. Exploring beyond the city? compare rental cars on EconomyBookings.
Staying connected
Spanish networks cover A Coruña and the Galician coast well, and EU visitors roam at home rates. Travellers from outside the EU can avoid roaming charges by setting up an eSIM before landing. Set up an eSIM with Airalo before you board and you're online the moment you land.
After the sessions
Tower of Hercules. The world's oldest Roman lighthouse still in use, and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, stands on the northern tip of the peninsula. Climbing the stairs to the top takes 30–45 minutes, with views over the Atlantic. Walk the surrounding sculpture park afterwards, but check for closures on very windy days. Tickets on Tiqets →
Paseo Marítimo. One of Europe's longest seafront promenades wraps around the peninsula for many kilometres, past beaches, the Tower of Hercules and the Aquarium Finisterrae. Hire a bike or walk a section at sunset. Riazor and Orzán beaches in the centre are a good starting point, and the full loop suits a relaxed morning.
María Pita Square and the old town. The grand arcaded square in front of the City Hall honours the local heroine who defended the city in 1589. From there, the Ciudad Vieja's small squares and churches take an hour to explore. Head to nearby streets like Calle de la Estrella for octopus and Galician wine.
Day trip to Santiago de Compostela. The cathedral city at the end of the Camino de Santiago is roughly half an hour away by fast train. Spend a day exploring the cathedral, the old town's granite streets and the Mercado de Abastos. Book cathedral rooftop tours in advance, as places are limited. Tickets on Tiqets →
Good to know
Do I need a car in A Coruña?
No, the city is compact and walkable, with local buses and taxis for longer hops. A car only helps if you plan to explore the Costa da Morte or rural Galicia.
What is the weather in A Coruña in October?
Expect mild temperatures around the mid-to-high teens Celsius with a real chance of rain and wind, so pack a waterproof layer.
When do people eat dinner in Galicia?
Like elsewhere in Spain, dinner usually starts late, often after 21:00, though tapas bars serve small plates from early evening.
