MidCamp 2026 Planning Begins with First Organizer Meeting on January 8

Staff Reporter

Organisers of MidCamp 2026 are inviting volunteers to join the planning team for next year’s event, with the first remote coordination meeting scheduled for 8 January 2026 at 9:00 PM UTC. A long-running Drupal event based in Chicago, MidCamp is powered by contributors who want to give back to the open source community by helping to create a welcoming, impactful conference experience.

MidCamp organisers emphasise that you don’t need to live in Chicago to participate. Planning is done remotely, and many team members are based elsewhere. Whether your background is in logistics, design, communications, development, or simply community involvement, there’s a role for everyone in making the camp a success.

Volunteering with MidCamp provides an opportunity to strengthen community ties, support open source, and gain behind-the-scenes experience in event management. The organising team encourages anyone interested in Drupal and community-building to attend the kickoff meeting and consider lending their skills.

The first meeting will be held via Zoom on Friday, 8 January 2026, from 9:00 PM to 10:00 PM UTC. The Zoom link will be shared closer to the meeting date. For ongoing coordination, interested contributors are encouraged to join the # midcamp-organisers channel on the MidCamp Slack workspace.
