About This Event

CES 2027 runs 6-9 January 2027 in Las Vegas, produced by the Consumer Technology Association. It is the largest general technology trade event on the calendar and its audited numbers are unusually trustworthy: the January 2026 edition was independently audited at 148,392 participants, up 4% year over year, including 55,841 international attendees from 141 countries, regions and territories, 7,037 media and analysts, 2,162 investors and 189 government policymakers. More than 4,100 exhibitors — among them roughly 1,200 startups in Eureka Park and 307 of the Fortune 500 — occupied 2.6 million net square feet. Artificial intelligence was the single largest draw, pulling 39,929 attendees, a 22% year-over-year increase, ahead of robotics at 19,605, and the conference programme ran 400-plus sessions with more than 1,400 speakers. Senior-level attendees made up 52% of the total.

Why Attend

CES is where a CTO or head of innovation sees an entire year of vendor and category roadmaps in four days, across industries their own conference never covers — the automotive, health and retail AI stacks all announce here in the same week. The audited numbers matter for planning: AI drew nearly 40,000 attendees in 2026 and robotics almost 20,000, which tells you where supplier investment is actually going. Eureka Park is the practical reason to fly: roughly 1,200 startups in one hall, filtered by national pavilion, is the fastest partner and acquisition scan available anywhere.

Event Features

  • CES Foundry — the dedicated AI, blockchain and quantum hub steps from the convention centre
  • Eureka Park — the startup hall, ~1,200 exhibitors in 2026
  • C Space — the marketing, advertising and brand programme
  • Creator Space — programming for the creator economy
  • Digital Health Summit
  • CES Innovation Awards 2027, including a new Art Tech category
  • Vehicle Tech and Advanced Mobility exhibit area
  • Conference programme: 400+ sessions with 1,400+ speakers at the 2026 edition

What Makes This Unique

  • Third-party audited attendance to UFI standards — one of the very few tech events whose scale figures can be checked rather than taken on trust
  • AI is now the show's largest interest category by attendance (39,929 in 2026, +22% year over year), not a bolt-on track
  • Eureka Park concentrates roughly 1,200 startups in one hall, alongside 307 Fortune 500 exhibitors — both ends of the market in walking distance
  • Cross-industry by design: automotive, health, retail and semiconductor roadmaps all land in the same week
