CreatorCon 2026

CreatorCon is a full-day immersive experience built to spark the next wave of meaningful brand-creator partnerships. You’ll hear from bold voices, meet emerging creators, and walk away with fresh ideas, real connections, and the momentum to create work that matters.

We’re packing in keynotes, panels, workshops, and live demos with plenty of room for coffee, convos, and curated connections along the way.

CreatorCon 2025 set the bar high. In 2026, we’re raising it.

This year’s experience is more curated, more intentional, and designed for real outcomes.

We’re introducing focused brand and creator tracks, tactical workshops, transparent case studies with real numbers, and a structured Creator x Brand Connect session to spark meaningful partnerships.

We’re also expanding into Covington, Kentucky for a walkable, campus-style experience. Main stage at Madison Theater. Breakouts at Sparkhaus. Coffee at Cauldron Cafe. Drinks at Coppin’s. The entire day is designed to flow, connect, and feel immersive.

Expect more brand-side voices, deeper enterprise conversations, smarter measurement discussions, and forward-looking sessions on AI, retail media, and the future of influence.
