GatherPress is the result of the WordPress community’s desire for new event management tools that meet the diverse needs of event organizers and members. This is a site dedicated to the GatherPress Open Source Project. You’ll find information on the ongoing work for the development of GatherPress, and ways to get involved. We’ll also share summaries of meetings and updates as we progress.

Learn more by visiting our What is GatherPress page here.

The team behind the GatherPress project attended WordCamp US 2023. In case you missed the chance to connect with any of our members, make sure to take a look at our Project Presentation (Google Drive slide).
