Host your own piece of Disrupt: Apply to run a Side Event at TechCrunch Disrupt 2026

成为 Disrupt 的一部分：申请举办 TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 场外活动

TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 takes place at Moscone West in San Francisco from October 13–15, but some of the best conversations aren’t exclusive to the stage or held within workshops or the halls. They spread into happy hours, rooftop mixers, breakfast meetups, and pitch nights across the city throughout the week of October 10-16. TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 将于 10 月 13 日至 15 日在旧金山的 Moscone West 会展中心举行。然而，最精彩的对话往往并不局限于舞台、研讨会或展厅内，而是延伸到了 10 月 10 日至 16 日这一周内遍布全城的欢乐时光（Happy Hours）、天台社交聚会、早餐见面会和路演之夜中。

Many of those events come through the official Disrupt Side Events. One of the best parts of the program is that it’s a wide-open opportunity. If you have a good idea for a theme and a place to host, you’re well on your way toward applying to host one. Here’s how it works: You put together the concept — from a founder mixer, an after-hours panel, a themed party, a morning run, whatever fits your goal — and the TechCrunch team helps put it in front of the attendees already in town for Disrupt. 许多此类活动都是通过官方的“Disrupt 场外活动”（Disrupt Side Events）计划举办的。该计划最棒的一点在于它是一个完全开放的机会。如果你有一个好的主题构思和举办场地，那么你离申请成功就不远了。运作方式如下：你负责构思活动内容——无论是创始人社交酒会、下班后的专题讨论、主题派对、晨跑，还是任何符合你目标的活动——TechCrunch 团队都会协助将其展示给届时来到 Disrupt 的参会者。

There’s no cost to apply, no licensing, just the best ideas rising to the top and adding to the community’s experience in October. Start your application right here! 申请无需任何费用，也无需授权，只需让最棒的创意脱颖而出，为 10 月份的社区体验增光添彩。点击此处开始申请！

What does hosting a Disrupt Side Event mean? There are a few things you should know up front about how our Side Event program works: Side Events can be hosted throughout the week of October 10-16, and our deadline for applications is September 4. You own the format. From a cocktail party to a rigorous workshop to a casual networking brunch, it’s about getting the community into the room. You’re responsible for logistics like the venue, budget, registrations, and a degree of promotion. At the end of the day, this is your event, running under the Disrupt banner. 举办 Disrupt 场外活动意味着什么？在了解我们的场外活动计划运作方式时，有几点需要提前知晓：场外活动可在 10 月 10 日至 16 日这一周内举办，申请截止日期为 9 月 4 日。活动形式由你决定。无论是鸡尾酒会、严谨的研讨会还是随意的社交早午餐，核心在于将社区成员聚在一起。你需要负责场地、预算、注册和一定程度的宣传等后勤工作。归根结底，这是你自己的活动，只是在 Disrupt 的旗帜下进行。

TechCrunch will spread word about the event through our Side Events page, agenda, app, attendee emails, and site coverage. Hosts receive a discount promo code on Disrupt passes to share across their own networks. For an even more detailed rundown of our Side Events, check out this guide. TechCrunch 将通过我们的场外活动页面、议程、应用程序、参会者邮件和网站报道来宣传你的活动。主办方将获得 Disrupt 通行证的折扣优惠码，以便在各自的社交网络中分享。如需了解关于场外活动的更详细信息，请查看此指南。

What kinds of events were hosted in 2025? Last year’s lineup ranged from VIP penthouse mixers with major cloud players to founder pitch nights, community meetups, running clubs, and late-night AI debates. There were dozens of different formats and vibes, all pulling from the same pool of more than 10,000 founders, investors, and community members enjoying the Bay Area. 2025 年举办了哪些活动？去年的活动阵容丰富多样，从与大型云服务商举办的 VIP 顶层公寓社交会，到创始人路演之夜、社区见面会、跑步俱乐部以及深夜 AI 辩论赛，应有尽有。数十种不同的形式和氛围，吸引了超过 10,000 名在湾区享受活动的创始人、投资者和社区成员参与。

That said, those options are available too.
