Remember where we have finished in our world tour of Drupal Camps? Let us refresh your memories. After Africa, Asia, North America, Europe and South America it was time for Middle America to shine. Only two Drupal Camps were found there, so we hoped for more Drupal activity in Oceania. Our hopes were fulfilled.

All about Australia
Like in the case of Africa, most Drupal Camps are taking
place in one country
In fact, in this case, all of the Drupal camps took place in
Australia in contrast to South Africa, which hosted a
majority of the events
That was not the case in the past, because New Zealand
also helped in organizing Drupal Camps in Oceania, but
this year it was all about Australia

This year's Drupal Camps in Oceania
The first Drupal Camp organized this year was DrupalGov
Canberra
It was a single day event on 8th February in the National
Museum of Australia
Capital of Australia hosted a variety of topics ranging from
strategy and management, case studies to technical
delivery
Due to lasting only one day, three sessions had to run
parallel, so visitors could be on everything
A keynote speaker was Tom Burton

The second one was Drupal Glamp Sydney 2016, which
was also a single day event
It took place on 3rd September and it was located in the
middle of Sydney Harbour
Views were therefore spectacular
On the other hand, the event was a mixture of
presentations, BOFs, training sessions and socialising
Speakers were Vladimir Roudakov, Max Pogonowski, Josh
Martin etc.

DrupalSouth Gold Coast

Drupal Camp had training sessions on the first day and the last two
days were reserved for sessions

What about New Zealand?
Well, New Zealand failed to organize a Drupal Camp this
year, but did that in the past as well
The recent one was in Welligton, capital city of New
Zealand, in 2014 under the name of DrupalSouth
Wellington
It was a three day event in February. Prior to the same
event under the same name was organized in 2010

Oceania is consistent
In conclusion, Oceania did not disappoint
From the history record it can be found that there was at least one Drupal
Camp organized in Oceania each year
Moreover, from 2014 there were at least three Drupal Camps in Oceanian's
soil each year
In our world Drupal Camp ranking table, which measures the quantity of
Drupal Camps organized on the continent, Australia beats the South and
Middle America and it is ranked just behind Africa
Our world tour is now concluded
