The final early-bird registration window for Disrupt 2026 is set to close this week, leaving attendees with less than four days to secure significant discounts. Organizers have confirmed that ticket prices will increase after September 25 at 11:59 p.m. PT, marking the end of the current promotion which offers savings of up to $200 per pass.

The annual technology conference is scheduled to run from October 13 to 15 at Moscone West in San Francisco.

2026 Programming and Specialized Stages

The 2026 agenda introduces several new specialized tracks designed to address shifts in the technical landscape. Industry reporting indicates the debut of the “Real World AI” stage, which will focus specifically on the intersection of artificial intelligence, robotics, and autonomous systems. Additionally, a “Smart Money” stage has been established to cover developments in fintech and the growing utility of stablecoins in global markets.

The speaker lineup features several prominent figures in tech and transport. Confirmed keynotes include Robby Stein from Google Search and RJ Scaringe, the CEO of Rivian. These sessions are expected to explore the deployment of large-scale AI models and the future of electrified transit infrastructure. Other notable speakers recently added to the roster include representatives from Amazon and Databricks.

Registration Incentives and Group Savings

Beyond the standard $200 discount on individual passes, there are several structured incentives available for teams and multiple-ticket purchases before the Friday deadline. Event organizers are currently offering a “Buy One Get One” 50% discount on a second ticket of the same type, a provision intended to help founders bring co-founders or technical leads to the event.

For larger organizations, group discounts of up to 30% are available for teams of four or more. These rates apply to both General Admission and specialized tracks, including the Builders and AI stages. According to UA.NEWS, the 2026 event will continue its focus on startup growth, maintaining its reputation as a primary venue for networking between emerging companies and international investors.

To qualify for the current tiered pricing, all registrations must be finalized through the official event portal before the September 25 cutoff.
