TechCrunch is running a flash sale on tickets for its Disrupt 2026 conference, with the lowest prices ending at 11:59pm PT on 21 August 2026. After that deadline, attendees will pay more for individual and group passes to the event, which takes place from 13-15 October at Moscone West in San Francisco.

Disrupt 2026 is expected to draw more than 10,000 founders, investors and startup community members, with programming this year focused heavily on building in the AI era. New additions include the Real World AI, Smart Money and Smart Systems stages, alongside returning Disrupt, AI and Builders stages, with confirmed speakers including Rivian's RJ Scaringe, Amazon's Panos Panay and Bluesky's Toni Schneider and Rose Wang. Ticket buyers can save up to $300, with larger discounts available on group pricing before rates rise.
