The Hampton Inn in Siloam Springs is bringing the essentials of civilized coffee drinking to WordCamp Fayetteville 2018.

WordCamps run on coffee. In fact, the only actual requirements for food and drink at WordCamps are water and coffee. If you don’t have coffee, you are officially not a WordCamp.

So we are very thankful to Hampton Inn for providing coffee carafes, cups, and the like to make our coffee drinking a pleasant experience. 

Hampton Inn Siloam Springs is just half an hour from the WordCamp Fayetteville venue by car, so if you’re still hotel shopping, check it out. 

Sticker Giant, a Global Sponsor for WordCamps, is providing stickers for our happy campers again this year.

This year’s stickers have a very collectible assortment of images capturing the fun of WordCamp Fayetteville 2018’s carnival theme. You know you want these!

Make sure you get your tickets so you don’t miss out.
