explore portland
Cascadia PHP's venue is situated right on the MAX light-rail line, so traveling anywhere across the city is a breeze.
Portland was founded in 1845 and features a rich western history that leaves a lot to explore. If that's not your thing, explore the food cart scene, the craft beer selection, and the amazing cocktails across the city.
Who is Cascadia PHP
Cascadia PHP is organized as a non-profit corporation and is focused on building the community in the Pacific Northwest.
All proceeds are spent to make this conference awesome and to expand the PHP community in the Pacific Northwest.
If you run a user group in the Pacific Northwest and would like to work together reach out to us at:
Cascadia PHP's board of directors originally planned to take over the PNWPHP conference, but time constraints and a desire to keep the Seattle PHP user group intact led us to pursue a new Non-Profit and a totally new conference instead.
Our board contains Contractors, Consultants, Business Owners, Educators, PHP-FIG Committee Members, and over 90 years of cumulative experience using PHP.
