TechCrunch Disrupt 2026: 50% Off Second Ticket Until May 8

Organizers of TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 have launched a limited-time promotion offering a 50% discount on a second event pass. Attendees who purchase two tickets of the same category by May 8, 11:59 p.m. PT, can significantly reduce their registration costs for the upcoming San Francisco summit.

Maximizing the Disrupt Experience

Scheduled for October 13–15 in San Francisco, the event serves as a hub for over 10,000 founders, investors, and industry leaders. With more than 300 startups showcasing their work and over 250 tactical sessions planned, the scale of the conference often makes it difficult for a single attendee to cover all relevant discussions.

By bringing a colleague, co-founder, or business partner, attendees can divide their efforts to gather more intelligence and engage in a broader range of conversations. This collaborative approach allows teams to compare insights in real time and establish clearer actionable plans following the event.

Discount Tiers by Participant Type

The buy-one-get-one-half-off offer applies to specific ticket types, each tailored to different professional goals within the ecosystem:

• Investors: Save $499. The dual-pass setup enables partners to compare deal signals and accelerate decision-making.
• Founders: Save $399. Teaming up helps maintain investment momentum and allows for faster navigation of networking opportunities.
• Operators: Save up to $444. Designed for engineering, product, and growth teams to optimize their revenue and go-to-market roadmaps.
• Non-profits: Save $214. Facilitates the application of emerging technology to real-world mission-driven work.
• Explorers: Save $149. Ideal for those scouting talent or looking for new roles within high-growth companies.

Strategic Networking and Startup Battlefield

Beyond the cost savings, the initiative aims to foster deeper connections during the three-day summit. For founders seeking direct exposure, the Startup Battlefield 200 remains a focal point, offering participants the chance to pitch to venture capitalists and compete for a $100,000 equity-free prize.
