What happened

TechCrunch is reminding attendees that early bird pricing for TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 ends on May 29 at 11:59 p.m. PT. After that deadline, ticket prices will go up.

The event is scheduled for October 13 to 15 at Moscone West in San Francisco. TechCrunch says the conference is expected to draw more than 10,000 attendees, including startup founders, investors (people who fund companies), and people who run tech businesses.

That includes talks from more than 250 speakers, an Expo Hall with more than 300 startups, and its Startup Battlefield 200 pitch competition, which offers a $100,000 equity-free prize (meaning the winner does not have to give up a share of the company).
