Elixir Camp 2019

October 25th - 28th, 2019

Camp Wombaroo

(near Mittagong, Sydney)

Elixir Camp is a place for people interested in Elixir, Erlang and related technologies to gather, network, share ideas and generally have a great time.

Diversity and Inclusion

While there's a general focus on Elixir developers, people of any background are encouraged to attend. We are committed to creating an open and inclusive community and as such have started developing a series of policies and initiatives that you can read more about here.

You should come to Elixir Camp if:

  • You like Elixir/Erlang
  • You have limited knowledge of Elixir, but you want to change that
  • You're into building high speed, fault tolerant, distributed applications
  • You've got specialist knowledge and you'd like to share with other enthusiasts
  • You're interested in web technologies
  • You've got a weekend project you really want to work on
  • You'll abide by our code of conduct

Food and Beverages

Elixir Camp will supply meals and snacks during the weekend, as well as tea, coffee and soft drinks.

Alcoholic beverages are not included in the ticket price, please purchase any beverages you'd like to bring prior to boarding the bus.

Please bring along any extra snacks you would like.

Essentials to Pack

  • A sleeping bag or the like
  • A pillow & pillow case
  • A towel (or two)
  • Clothes for mild to cool weather
  • Computer gear and chargers
  • Toiletries for the weekend
  • Download any packages, libraries and software you might want to use on a camp project. It's best to be prepared
  • Any snacks you might like to bring along
  • Games to play with others. Werewolf, Avalon, Cards Against Humanity, Flux and Poker have all featured at previous camps

Getting to Elixir Camp on Friday 25th

Attendees should catch a train from Sydney Central to Mittagong on the Southern Highlands line. See timetable

The last train that gets into Mittangong that will guarantee you will be there in time for the bus will leave Central station at 13:57H and will arrive in Mittangong at 16:00H. That will also leave you with ample time to pick up some snacks and beverages in Mittangong before the bus departs at 17:00H.

A shuttle bus will depart from the North side of Mittagong at 17:00H to take everyone the rest of the way to Camp Wombaroo. See: .

If you're coming from interstate, then the best way to get to Mittagong is to fly to Sydney and catch a train from Central (see above)/

If attendees would like to purchase alcoholic beverages there is a Dan Murphy's in Mittagong. Just make sure you're back at the station in time to meet the bus!

Departing Elixir Camp on Monday 28th

The shuttle bus will depart Camp Wombaroo no later than 9:30am to drop off at Mittagong station where campers should make their way back to Sydney Central by train. See: train timetable.

Please allow ample time for delays, epsecially if you're flying.
