Becoming an Agentic Enterprise — Salesforce's annual takeover of Moscone
About This Event
Dreamforce 2026 is Salesforce's annual customer conference, held 15-17 September 2026 across Moscone Center North, South and West in San Francisco, with keynotes and selected sessions streamed free on Salesforce+. The stated theme is 'Becoming an Agentic Enterprise', and the framing this year is deployment rather than vision: proving AI agents are governable and running in production at scale, a step on from the largely conceptual Agentforce announcements of the previous edition. The published programme runs to more than 1,600 breakout sessions, 50-plus visionary and product keynotes, 150-plus hands-on trainings and demos and 240-plus community roundtables, with expected in-person attendance above 40,000. Expected content threads include Agentforce governance, Data 360 for structured and unstructured data, the headless and MCP tooling direction carried over from TDX 2026, Slack as an agent surface, industry clouds, and admin and low-code work in Flow and Prompt Builder. Marc Benioff traditionally opens with the main keynote, and Dreamfest closes the week.

Why Attend
Dreamforce is the densest week of the year for anyone whose customer data sits in Salesforce: agent governance, Data 360, the headless and MCP API direction carried over from TDX, and Slack's turn as the agent surface all get product keynotes rather than blog posts. With 150+ hands-on trainings you can put an admin through Flow and Prompt Builder work on the same trip, and 240+ community roundtables put you next to peers who have already shipped what you are still scoping. The counterweight is sheer scale — 40,000 people and 1,600 sessions demand a schedule booked well in advance.
