Practical Information about our Venue

WordCamp Joburg is 2 weeks away, and we are getting super excited. Our venue, the Focus Rooms, is amazing. Here’s some things that you need to know:

Where to find the Focus Rooms

The Focus Rooms is at the Core Shopping Centre, on the corner of Leeukop and Kikuyu Roads in Sunninghill, Fourways, Johannesburg. If you are coming by car there is free open-air parking. If you want to use the underground parking it will be R25 per day.

If you are coming via the Gautrain take the train to the Midrand Station. After that take the Midrand-Sunninghill bus route to the Square Centre bus stop and walk approximately 500 metres to the Core Shopping Centre and The Focus Rooms. Alternatively you can get off at the Eskom bus stop.You can download a PDF with directions here.

If you are taking the Metrobus use the Gandhi Square to Sunninghill route and get off at the corner of Rivonia and Witkoppen Roads (stop 5D). From there you can easily walk to the Core Shopping center.

What you need to bring

Day one is Workshop day and you will get the most value if you bring a laptop and work along with the presentations. Cabling is provided but please remember to bring chargers and adapters.

Day two consists of a variety of talks and panels. You are welcome to bring your laptop again and we recommend something to take notes.

Special requirements

If you have any specific requirements regarding accessibility, please let us know so we can do our best to work out how to accommodate your needs.

We will be sending out an email to attendees next week asking about special dietary requests.

We are looking forward to seeing you in two weeks at WordCamp Joburg.
