Bar Camp Manchester

BarCamp Manchester 2 is an open, free-to-attend, participatory 2-day unconference. Unconferences differ from normal conferences in that the schedule is created and filled by the attendees with everyone running a session or talk about whatever subject they have a passion for. From Cocktail Making to Programming for Beginners, from Arduino Hacking to Photography, BarCamps attract people from all sorts of backgrounds, each sharing their expertise and experiences.

Bar Camp is taking place at Contact on 7 & 8 November and takes over all spaces in the building from Contact Lounge, Space 1/2/3, meeting rooms and dressing rooms.

Sponsors: Northwest Vision and Media , Manchester Digital , Code Computerlove , Setfire Media , Nokia and Bytemark Hosting.

Micro sponsors: testled.com , Simplified and Little World Gifts.

With the support of BBC Backstage.
