Less than 24 hours to apply for your TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 Side Event

The clock is almost out. You have less than 24 hours left to apply to host a Side Event during TechCrunch Disrupt 2026.

Applications close tonight at midnight PT. Connect with the entire Silicon Valley scene through October 10–16 by hosting your own Side Event. Bring your community, start an impactful conversation that’ll push the needle, and create an unforgettable experience. Disrupt brings thousands of founders, investors, partners, and tech leaders to San Francisco. Side Events give you another way to connect with that community — before, during, and after the conference. Host a meetup. Bring tech leaders together for a happy hour. Lead a panel or workshop. Create an experience your community will remember. The event is yours to plan. Applying does not guarantee your event will be accepted or hosted as an official TechCrunch Disrupt Side Event. All applications are reviewed by the TechCrunch events team. Your event must be approved before it can be included in the official Side Events program. All logistics and costs will be your responsibility. So, if you want the opportunity to expand your brand reach, apply now.
