SIGGRAPH 2027

SIGGRAPH 2027, the 54th annual ACM conference on computer graphics and interactive techniques, runs 8–12 August 2027 at the Anaheim Convention Center in Anaheim, California — a move from Los Angeles, where the 2026 edition drew more than 9,500 attendees from 69 countries. Conference chair Kristy Pron, a Walt Disney Imagineer, leads the programme. SIGGRAPH has become a primary venue for applied generative AI: the 2026 edition centred on neural rendering, Gaussian splatting, robotics and immersive storytelling, and debuted a dedicated Games Summit track alongside a keynote from Disney Imagineer Lanny Smoot. The conference pairs a juried Technical Papers programme with a large exhibition floor, courses, and production sessions from film, games and visual-effects studios.

• ✓CTOs and VPs of Engineering
• ✓Graphics and rendering engineers
• ✓ML and computer vision researchers
• ✓Technical directors in film, VFX and games
• ✓Product and design technology leaders
• ✓Creative technologists
• ✓GPU and hardware platform teams

SIGGRAPH is where generative visual AI stops being a demo and becomes a production pipeline. For a CTO or VP of engineering in media, gaming, product design, simulation or industrial digital twins, five days here shows which neural-rendering and 3D-generation techniques studios have actually shipped, what hardware they run them on, and which vendors survived contact with a real delivery deadline. The exhibition floor puts GPU, cloud, content-creation-tool and middleware vendors in one hall for side-by-side evaluation, and the courses programme is a credible way to upskill a graphics or ML team in a single trip.

• ✓Juried Technical Papers programme — SIGGRAPH's flagship peer-reviewed research track
• ✓Games Summit, the dedicated one-day games track introduced at SIGGRAPH 2026
• ✓Technical Papers Fast Forward preview session
• ✓Electronic Theater and Computer Animation Festival screenings
• ✓Exhibition floor covering graphics hardware, DCC tooling, rendering and cloud vendors
• ✓Keynote programme — SIGGRAPH 2026's was delivered by Disney Imagineer Lanny Smoot

• ★Moves to the Anaheim Convention Center after the 2026 edition filled the Los Angeles Convention Center with more than 9,500 attendees from 69 countries.
• ★Its juried Technical Papers programme is one of the most selective venues in computer science — a peer-reviewed research track, not a pay-to-present expo.
• ★Chaired by Walt Disney Imagineer Kristy Pron, keeping the programme anchored in production practice rather than research alone.
• ★The Games Summit, introduced at SIGGRAPH 2026, gives games practitioners a dedicated track inside SIGGRAPH for the first time.
