TechCrunch Disrupt 2026: $75 Expo+ Passes for Laid-Off Tech Workers

Individuals who have recently experienced layoffs can secure a TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 Expo+ pass for just $75. This promotion is strictly limited to the first 100 qualifying applicants or until the event doors officially open on October 13, 2026, at 8 a.m. PT, after which the discounted rate will no longer be available.

The conference spans three full days from October 13 to 15, 2026, at Moscone West in San Francisco, bringing together over 10,000 founders, investors, operators, and tech leaders. The gathering serves as a hub for attendees to reconnect with the tech ecosystem, build professional networks, and explore new career trajectories.

At the center of the event is the Expo Hall, where attendees can interact with more than 300 exhibiting startups and network directly with innovators and builders. While the Expo+ pass provides full entry to the exhibition floor, it does not include admission to industry stages and roundtable programming for those seeking the complete conference experience.
