- There will be an option to join virtually as it will have elements of being a hybrid event.
- You may choose to organize a watch party, a local event with activities, or build your event around participation in Wikimania’s programme. This year though we will not be funding Wikimania satellite events from the Wikimania grants fund, funding for the meetup can be requested via the regular grant process.
