TED 2026

TED2026 is the annual flagship conference organized by TED, scheduled to take place from April 13 to 17, 2026, in Vancouver, Canada. This event marks a significant milestone as it will be the final TED conference held in Vancouver before the organization transitions to a new venue in 2027. Attendees will have the opportunity to engage with a curated network of global changemakers, innovators, and cultural shapers in an environment designed to foster collaboration and inspiration.

The conference will feature over 80 live talks, interviews, and performances, covering a diverse range of topics including technology, science, culture, and human development. The theme for TED2026, "All of Us," emphasizes the collective effort required to build a hopeful future amidst the volatile political, technological, and cultural landscape. Visionary speakers will share ideas aimed at redefining what's possible and shaping a better future for all.

In addition to the main stage presentations, TED2026 offers Discovery Sessions—deep-dive workshops, activities, and excursions throughout Vancouver. These sessions provide attendees with immersive experiences to explore new ideas and connect with fellow participants. The conference also includes hosted dinners, celebrations, and networking events, creating ample opportunities for meaningful connections and collaborations.

TED2026 is ideal for leaders, innovators, and visionaries across various disciplines who are committed to understanding and advancing society.
