Stories from Past Hosts
Every WordCamp Asia reflects the heart of its host city, through its venues, its community, and its culture. And Wapuu mascots embody that.
Bangkok, 2023
The very first WordCamp Asia took place at ICONSIAM, a riverside landmark on the Chao Phraya. After years of waiting, the excitement in the community was unbelievable.
The official Wapuu, Chao Phraya Boat Wapuu, captured that spirit perfectly, sailing down the river with the same energy and possibility that marked this historic beginning.
Taipei, 2024
WordCamp Asia 2024 took place at the Taipei International Convention Center (TICC), just steps from Taipei 101, tradition and technology met side by side. Surrounded by temples and skyscrapers, the event was filled with connection and culture.
The official Wapuu, Soul Dumpling Wapuu, reflected the city’s warmth and hospitality through its popular soup dumpling.
Manila 2025
