SIGGRAPH Asia 2026

SIGGRAPH Asia 2026 runs 1-4 December 2026 at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre (KLCC) in Malaysia, with the exhibition open 2-4 December. Themed "Weaving the Future," it is the 19th ACM SIGGRAPH Conference and Exhibition on Computer Graphics and Interactive Techniques in Asia and the first edition ever hosted in Malaysia; Frank Guan of the Singapore Institute of Technology chairs it and Koelnmesse organises it. The programme spans peer-reviewed Technical Papers and Art Papers alongside Courses, Workshops, Emerging Technologies, XR, Posters, the Computer Animation Festival, Real-Time Live!, Games, an Educator's Forum and Birds of a Feather sessions. Workshop tracks for 2026 include AI Film Frontiers and a Volumetric Video Challenge, reflecting how far generative and neural methods have moved into production graphics pipelines.

For anyone running a creative-technology, simulation or visualisation function, SIGGRAPH Asia is where the techniques that end up in next year's production pipeline are peer-reviewed and demonstrated live rather than announced in a launch video. Real-Time Live! in particular lets an engineering lead judge whether a neural rendering or volumetric method survives contact with real hardware. The Asia-Pacific location and the very low Exhibit & Experience Access rate make it the affordable way to scout the regional VFX, games and XR supplier base and to recruit graphics talent, and the AI Film Frontiers and volumetric workshops answer directly to the generative-video questions media and marketing teams are being asked to price right now.

• ✓Technical Papers — the peer-reviewed core programme
• ✓Art Papers and the Art Gallery
• ✓Real-Time Live! — live technical demonstrations
• ✓Computer Animation Festival
• ✓Emerging Technologies
• ✓XR programme
• ✓Courses and the Educator's Forum
• ✓Workshops including AI Film Frontiers and the Volumetric Video Challenge
• ✓Posters and Birds of a Feather sessions
• ✓Games featured sessions

• ★The first SIGGRAPH Asia ever held in Malaysia, and the Asia-Pacific counterpart to the North American SIGGRAPH — the peer-reviewed venue where production graphics techniques are first published
• ★Real-Time Live! is a live, unedited demonstration session rather than a slide deck, which is a genuinely different way to judge whether a technique works
• ★2026 workshop tracks include AI Film Frontiers and a Volumetric Video Challenge, putting generative methods on the agenda as production tooling rather than novelty
• ★An unusually cheap entry point: the Exhibit & Experience Access pass is $20 early-bird, so evaluating the exhibition costs almost nothing
• ★Explicit ACM member and student rates make it viable to send a whole junior team rather than one senior attendee
