5 days left: Save up to $410 on TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 passes before prices increase

TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 is happening in San Francisco, and early bird ticket pricing wraps up this week. You've got until May 29 at 11:59 p.m. PT to register and save up to $410 before prices jump.

Disrupt typically draws founders, investors, and product teams working on emerging tech, including AI startups and companies integrating AI into their products. It's one of the bigger gatherings where you'll see early stage demos, investor panels, and networking that skews heavily toward people building or funding new technology.

If you're already planning to go, the math is simple. Waiting a few days will cost you a few hundred dollars. If you're on the fence, consider whether the speaker lineup and startup expo align with what you're working on right now.

The event tends to be useful if you're fundraising, hiring, or trying to understand where AI tooling and infrastructure are headed in the next 12 months. It's less useful if you're just keeping up with news, most of that will be covered online anyway.

Bottom line: early bird pricing ends May 29. If Disrupt is on your calendar, register before Thursday night to lock in the lower rate.
