Shoptalk Fall 2027

Shoptalk Fall 2027 is a three-day retail and consumer-brand conference in Nashville, Tennessee, running October 5 to 7, 2027. It is run by Shoptalk, the Hyve Group events business behind Shoptalk Spring, Shoptalk Europe, Shoptalk Luxe and Groceryshop, and brings together retailers, consumer brands, technology vendors, agencies and investors. The 2026 edition, the first in Nashville, was held at Music City Center and promoted with 3,500+ leaders, 150+ speakers and 20,000+ pre-scheduled one-to-one meetings. The program uses a 'Retail Unplugged' format with fewer slides and more discussion: Main Stage keynotes run with no parallel sessions, and most other blocks carry four to five parallel tracks plus Tabletalks, Shopwalks and Tactical Labs. AI runs through the agenda; the 2026 B2B Exchange had a 'Data, AI and commerce infrastructure' strand covering agentic buying and selling. The 2027 venue has not been announced.
