FAQ

How should I get there?

No need to stress: we’ve arranged shuttles to and from Partner Day EU. Shuttles will be available from central Turin (Piazza Castello) and the WCEU venue (NH Hotel Torino Lingotto Congress) to Heritage Hub and back again at the end of the evening.

Please let us know by June 7 if you’ll be taking the shuttle.

You mentioned a tour of Heritage Hub…?

Yep — our event will take place at Heritage Hub, a former Fiat manufacturing plant turned museum with over 300 vintage and classic cars. Feel free to join an optional tour of the space and see some never-seen-before cars before Partner Day EU programming starts (ooh, shiny).

Please let us know by June 7 if you’ll be joining the tour. (It’s the same form as the shuttle.)

What should I expect for the day?

Partner Day EU will include talks and sessions from the Woo leadership and partner teams, dedicated time for you to connect with our team and other partners, and, dare we say it, fun! 

What should I bring?

Beyond whatever necessities make you feel comfortable, there’s no need to bring anything, even a laptop. We’ll provide everything needed.

What should I wear?

Whatever makes you comfortable. If you want additional guidance, the dress code is casual. And remember to check the weather forecast!

How should I get around town?

Like we said, we’ll have shuttles to and from the event! Beyond that, Torino is well connected, with an established public transport system, car sharing, and bike and scooter sharing. We recommend planning in advance and ride-sharing if you’re coming with a colleague.

Are you feeding me?

Of course! We’ll offer coffee and pastries to start, snacks and more coffee to keep our energy up throughout the day, a catered lunch, and a seated dinner in the evening. If you forgot to note a dietary restriction in your RSVP, please let your Partner Manager know ASAP.

Is this event part of WordCamp Europe?

Partner Day EU is separate from WordCamp Europe. However, the WordPress community is incredibly important to us, and we intentionally scheduled them together so that you can take advantage of both opportunities! Check out the WordCamp Europe site for more information and to purchase your ticket.

When should I arrive/depart?

The Partner Day event will take place from mid-morning until late evening on June 12, 2024. We suggest you arrive by June 11 so you don’t miss anything on June 12. We highly encourage you to stick around for WordCamp Europe June 13–15 (we will!), but all Partner Day programming will wrap up the evening of June 12. 

Will I have time to schedule my own meetings or take a break during the event?

Please plan to be with us for the entire day! We’ll share more details about the schedule soon, but due to the busy agenda, you won’t have time to return to your hotel or schedule separate meetings during the event.

I RSVP’d yes! When should I book travel for the event?

Fabulous, we can’t wait to see you! Go ahead and book your travel whenever it’s most convenient to you.

Where should I stay?

The event will take place in central Turin (exact location to be confirmed). We recommend you look at the WordCamp Europe hotel recommendations, or look for a hotel in the city center.

Why is my date of birth required?

The event venue requires a date of birth for all attendees. Don’t worry; we won’t sing for you if it’s your birthday, and we won’t share this personal information elsewhere!

I can’t attend — can I send someone else from my company instead?

We’re so sorry you can’t make it. This invite is intended specifically for you, but please reach out to your Woo Partner Manager if you feel someone else on your team would be a good fit.
