WikiConference North America 2024
was the eleventh annual gathering of Wikimedians, institutions, and professionals from across North America, including Canada, the United States, Mexico, the Caribbean and Central America. Our theme was
"Crossroads"
, inspired by the
Indiana state motto
and also alluding to the multiple meanings of the word—as the place where Wikimedians from across the continent
cross paths
, as well as what we hope will be a
turning point
for participants.
The event was held at
Indiana University Indianapolis
in Indianapolis, Indiana, from October 4–6, 2024.
On Thursday, October 3, there was a Wiki Culture Crawl during the day, and the opening night cocktail reception.
