WordCamp Asia 2025: Throwback to Conference Day 2


We might be a little late with this, but what a ride it has been! The Communications (PR) Team has loved every moment of keeping you informed, excited, and engaged throughout WordCamp Asia 2025. As we wrap up our organizing journey, we couldn’t say goodbye without one final throwback—here’s a look back at the incredible moments from Day 2 of the event.

Learning, Innovation, and Community


As the sun rose over Manila, WordCamp Asia 2025 entered its second full day of inspiring talks, hands-on workshops, and buzzing conversations.

With attendees eager to dive into more sessions, explore the sponsor hall, and connect with fellow WordPress enthusiasts, the energy at the Philippine International Convention Center (PICC) remained electric.

More Knowledge, More Insights

The day kicked off with back-to-back sessions across multiple tracks, covering everything from performance optimization and headless WordPress to accessibility and AI-driven development. Speakers brought their A-game, delivering insightful presentations and sparking conversations that extended well beyond the conference rooms.

At YouthCamp, young minds got a hands-on introduction to the world of WordPress. Designed to inspire the next generation of creators, YouthCamp featured engaging activities, beginner-friendly workshops, and mentorship opportunities from seasoned professionals.

Seeing young attendees build and experiment with WordPress was a testament to the platform’s impact across all age groups.

A Hub of Innovation & Engagement

Throughout the day, the Sponsor Hall remained a major attraction, buzzing with activity. Attendees had the chance to connect with top WordPress companies, explore new tools, and take home some cool swag.

Whether it was hosting providers showcasing their latest offerings, plugin developers demonstrating new features, or theme builders discussing design trends, the sponsor booths were filled with valuable insights and opportunities.

One of the standout additions this year was the Solutions Spotlight, where sponsors like GoDaddy, Elementor, Hostinger, Automattic, Bluehost, and Yoast took the stage for 10-minute lightning talks, giving attendees a quick yet deep dive into how their products solve real-world WordPress challenges. These rapid-fire sessions were the perfect way to get a snapshot of industry innovations while grabbing a coffee between sessions.

As always, lunch at WordCamp Asia was not just about the food—it was about the people. Attendees enjoyed a diverse menu of local Filipino favorites and international cuisine, creating the perfect setting for informal networking. From first-time attendees to veteran WordPress contributors, conversations flowed freely, reinforcing the strong community spirit that makes WordCamp special.

Matt Mullenweg Q&A

One of the most anticipated moments of the day was the Matt Q&A Session, where WordPress co-founder Matt Mullenweg took the stage to answer questions from the community.

Covering topics like the future of Gutenberg, the role of AI in WordPress, and the evolving open-source landscape, Matt shared candid insights and engaged in thought-provoking discussions.

As always, his session left attendees with a renewed sense of excitement for what’s ahead.

Wrapping Up an Incredible WordCamp Asia 2025

With an action-packed second day of sessions, sponsor interactions, and community-driven conversations, WordCamp Asia 2025 proved once again why it’s one of the most anticipated events in the global WordPress community.

From the opening day’s high-energy keynotes to the final moments of Contributor Day, this year’s event was a testament to the power of learning, collaboration, and innovation.

The Sponsor Hall remained a focal point of engagement throughout the event, offering attendees valuable insights into the latest WordPress tools and technologies. Networking extended beyond sessions, with meaningful connections formed over meals, coffee breaks, and spontaneous hallway conversations.

Contributor Day provided a hands-on experience where attendees gave back to WordPress. Whether contributing to core development, improving documentation, translating WordPress into new languages, or supporting marketing efforts, participants left a lasting impact on the project.

As WordCamp Asia 2025 wrapped up, one thing was clear: this event wasn’t just about learning—it was about building a stronger, more connected WordPress community. Whether you were a seasoned developer, a business owner, or just starting your WordPress journey, the experience was a reminder of why this platform continues to thrive.

WordCamp Asia isn’t just a conference—it’s a movement. And as we look ahead to the next gathering in Mumbai, India, one thing is certain: the best is yet to come.

It’s been an honor,

to share this journey with you, and we can’t wait to see what the future holds for the WordPress community. Until next time—keep creating, keep connecting, and keep the spirit of WordCamp alive!
