TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 is preparing to host thousands of founders, investors, operators, and tech leaders from October 13 to 15 at Moscone West in San Francisco. The event’s Expo Hall offers startups the chance to demo products, connect with potential investors, and engage with future customers and partners.

Exhibit table bookings for the event officially close tonight at 11:59 p.m. PT, with spaces limited and offered on a first-come, first-served basis. The standard exhibit package is priced at $12,500 and includes a dedicated 6' by 30" table for all three days, along with 10 passes for team members and enhanced networking opportunities.

Why it matters

TechCrunch Disrupt remains one of the industry’s most influential events, gathering a highly targeted audience of over 10,000 decision-makers seeking innovation and investment opportunities. Securing a spot in the Expo Hall provides startups with priceless visibility and direct access to investors actively sourcing new ventures to back.

In addition to product demos and investor meetings, the event’s environment fosters meaningful partnerships and lead generation. Exhibiting at Disrupt places startups in direct competition with their peers, making presence critical to capturing the attention of investors and customers first.

What to watch next

Startups still interested in exhibiting must act by tonight to secure their spot. Beyond the Expo Hall, attendees can benefit from 250+ sessions across six industry stages, AI-powered matchmaking, and high-profile networking events running throughout the conference.

Regular ticket pricing remains available until September 25, after which fees increase. As the event approaches, the focus will shift to finalizing startup lineups, evaluating the Startup Battlefield participants, and tracking deal flow opportunities emerging from investor-founder interactions.
