Speakers want your feedback, and often you want to give feedback to speakers. Even if it’s a simple 👍🏻.
WordCamp Miami is building a tool that allows attendees to do just that. It’s MyTalk.Rocks. Since we couldn’t get the beta up in time for 2019, we have a simple concept on the site right now. You can:
Pick your day (Friday, Saturday, Sunday)
Pick your speaker (ordered by first name)
Rock them with an emoji! 🤣 ❤️ 👏🏻 👍🏻 💯
Take a picture of them speaking and send to them – they will appreciate it!
Give them some brief feedback or ask a question you didn’t get to ask in the session.
See how it works below!
Prizes
If you give feedback to a speaker you will be entered to win a SURPRISE PRIZE during closing remarks on Sunday March 17th. The more feedback you give to speakers (one feedback form per speaker is counted) the better the chances you win!

After our sessions end on Saturday March 16th we will be going a gameshow hour with ALL attendees – plus we have booked an entire restaurant.
The best part is that all of this is happening at the same venue as WordCamp Miami itself. No need to worry about driving anywhere!
Gameshow Night!
After the sessions end on Saturday you don’t have to go anywhere. Before we head over to the restaurant for food, games, and networking – WordCamp Miami is throwing it’s second annual “Gameshow” night… and everyone is invited!
We have a number of different interactive things in store. Planning items include:
Trivia Contests – Any Attendee With A Wifi Mobile Device Can Play
Team vs Team Trivia
WPBingo
…and more
Gameshow hour is a family-friendly event. Fun. Prizes. WordPress.
We Booked An Entire Restaurant
We have booked Chili’s at FIU – a full size restaurant with plenty of space both inside and outside on the balcony. We will be updating this post with food information and any drink specials. The restaurant is literally a 5 minute walk from the speaking rooms at FIU.
While some will be enjoying food and networking with attendees, nearby you can enjoy a quiet area to network and perhaps do some karaoke.
Last year’s after party feedback definately confirms that our attendees loved having the choice of two experiences – interactive entertainment and a ‘quiet place to unwind’. Based on that feedback we are providing areas for those want a quieter experience – either to just sit back and relax and their own or perhaps wanting to network without too much background noise.
Our after party starts at 7pm and ends at 11pm. Organizers and volunteers will be available at all locations should you have questions or need assistance. The entire after party is a family friendly event.
Tickets
In order to provide the best experience possible, please accurately answer the ‘going to after party’ question when you are registering your weekend ticket.
Badges
You must have your badge to attend the restaurant and game room after party experience. You do not need a badge for any gameshow activities prior, since these will be held in our main speaking room right after our keynote on Saturday.
More Information Coming Soon
Details about food and other information will be made available as we get closer to the event. We are excited to bring this new experience on our 11th anniversary.
If you are thinking about grabbing a WordCamp Miami ticket, be aware that you must do so by Feb 28th in order to guarantee yourself on our infamous (famous?) WordCamp Miami t-shirts. After Feb 28th, we send off our order to the t-shirt company who doesn’t guarantee any additional shirts on late orders.
This year, we have quite a bit of surprises for those who don’t wait until the last minute. Don’t be left out!
These are tickets that you can purchase in advance BEFORE we start announcing the bulk of confirmed speakers.
Why should I get an EARLY BIRD TICKET?
WordCamp Miami eventually sells out, so grabbing a weekend ticket ensures you a spot at the conference for the weekend – which means you get the great food, talks, networking, and swag – guaranteed!
What other perks do I get?
WordCamp Miami created cool shirts like this one for early birds, kids, and others. What are we bringing to 2019 you ask? Stay tuned!
As in previous years, WordCamp Miami gives a small reward for early bird ticket holders. In the past, we’ve entered “early birders” in contests and offered giveaways. Last year we gave out extra t-shirts and noteable items. We also have a BIG GAMESHOW feature at the conference and perhaps some rounds will be only for early birders… We’re keeping a lid on this information at the moment. 😊
Legal: Since WCMIA is a volunteer based non-profit event, any prizes or rewards may vary depending on final budget and sponsorships. Also organizers and sponsors are not eligible for any prizes, even if they are an early bird ticket holder. We will release information by March 14th – you must be present at the event to receive any goodies, prizes, gifts, etc. WCMIA reserves the right to change or update conditions at any time.
Our workshop tickets for Friday March 15th 2019 will be released soon. You don’t have to wait for these workshop tickets to purchase your early bird weekend tickets. We are not offering student or teacher discounts for early bird tickets. If you are selected as a speaker and purchase an early bird ticket – don’t worry… we will refund your ticket.
We have extended the speaker submission deadline from January 10th to January 13th (Midnight EST). It’s about three additional days and you get to have another weekend! Yep, you now have the weekend to submit any final talks for us to consider!
Since WordCamp Miami values quality submissions from as much of a diverse group as possible, we figured adding the weekend was the least we could do.
