Four days remain before TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 convenes 10,000 founders, investors and technology executives at Moscone West in San Francisco from October 13 to 15. Organizers announced that discounted online tickets will expire when registration closes at 8 a.m. Pacific time on October 13, the day the conference begins.

Savings of up to $100 are available for standard passes purchased before the deadline. Attendees may also purchase a second pass of the same type at half price. A reduced $75 Expo+ Pass is offered to individuals who have experienced recent layoffs.

Disrupt serves varied objectives for different participants. Founders often seek meetings in the Expo Hall or the founder-investor Deal Flow Café to connect with investors, customers or partners. Investors use the event to identify emerging companies. Corporate technology leaders attend to evaluate market trends and potential solutions. The conference features more than 200 sessions led by over 250 speakers across six stages, along with roundtables and the Startup Battlefield 200 pitch competition.

Registration includes access to all sessions, networking opportunities and the Expo Hall. Attendees are encouraged to schedule meetings in advance to maximize interactions with target companies or investors.

Early registration allows participants to secure lower rates before standard pricing takes effect at the door. Organizers note that the special pricing window closes simultaneously with the start of the event.

For professionals seeking industry insights, potential collaborations or investment opportunities, Disrupt presents a concentrated platform for technology networking and trend observation over three days in October.
