The Slack channel for the Disrupt team was buzzing this morning. It’s always like that, though, in the final hours. Especially when a deadline looms. Today, January 30, 2026, is the last chance to grab a +1 pass at half price for TechCrunch Disrupt 2026.
The conference, scheduled for October 13-15 in San Francisco, promises to be a major event. TechCrunch has built a strong reputation. It’s a key gathering for the tech industry, and the early bird discount is designed to get people to commit early. That’s the idea, anyway.
The buzz is partly due to the speaker lineup, but it’s also the usual pre-event rush. Hundreds of startups are probably scrambling to finalize their pitches. The pressure is on, for sure.
“We’re seeing strong demand for this year’s event,” a TechCrunch spokesperson confirmed earlier today. “The early registration numbers are very encouraging.” They declined to offer specific figures, but did say that they were, “tracking well ahead of 2025’s pace.”
The conference has, for years, been a bellwether for the tech sector. Analysts watch it closely. The focus, as always, will be on the latest innovations and the future of the industry.
With that +1 pass, attendees will gain access to the full three-day experience. This includes keynotes, panel discussions, and the startup battlefield. Plus, the networking opportunities are huge. That’s always been a big draw.
The discounted price is only available today, though. It’s a pretty simple offer, in a way. Get in now, or pay full price later. That’s the deal.
