HISTORY
The 1st DrupalCamp Toronto happened in May 2006. It was the 2nd ever worldwide Drupal camp (following San Francisco and preceding, by one day, New York City). It was a groundbreaking time for the small but expanding Drupal universe.

The 2006 camp in Toronto hosted 40 people in a small space at the Centre for Social Innovation. Since that time, our Drupal community’s events have morphed, expanded and evolved.

Our Drupal events in Toronto have grown as large as 380 attendees and we’ve had the honour of hosting keynote presentations from such Drupal and industry luminaries as founder Dries Buytaert, Angie Byron, Jeff Eaton, Karen McGrane and many more. Hundreds of Drupal experts have come from all over the world to share their vast knowledge in a wide variety of presentations. A wonderful array of sponsors have supported our community and we can’t thank them enough for their invaluable contributions throughout the years.

Since 2006, we’ve seen Drupal grow and morph through 4 major version releases and expand globally in ways most of us couldn’t have predicted. It’s been an incredible ride.

Let’s gather together on April 15th to celebrate 10 amazing years of DrupalCamp Toronto and learn all about what we can do with Drupal in 2016 and beyond.
