# ApacheCon US In Atlanta

So, I popped into `#apache` on Freenode IRC today to ask a question. That's when I noticed the news in their topic that [ApacheCon US](http://www.apachecon.com/) will take place this year in Atlanta, GA from November 12–16 at the [Westin Peachtree](http://www.starwoodhotels.com/westin/property/overview/index.html?propertyID=1023). This is good news for me (since I won't need to get a plane ticket) and [Atlanta PHP](http://atlantaphp.org/)!

I proceeded to ask [Rich Bowen](http://drbacchus.com/) a few questions about the conference and what Atlanta PHP can do to help promote and take part in it. ApacheCon usually has a PHP track (ApacheCon EU does not have a PHP track this year), and Rich said he expects this conference to have the full complement of tracks. It's my hope that Atlanta PHP can somehow be a part of this.

For now, there are no more details, and the CFP hasn't been announced, but the dates (Nov 12–16) and location (Westin Peachtree) are "set in stone."
