Big ideas are landing in Ocean City.
On Friday, September 18, 2026, TEDx Butterfish Cove brings 18 speakers to the stage at the Roland E. Powell Convention Center for a day dedicated to ideas worth spreading.
From technology and behavioral science to neuroscience, leadership, health, sustainability, aviation, education, entrepreneurship, infrastructure, food, advocacy, and the human experience, our speakers bring remarkably different perspectives to one stage.
But TEDx Butterfish Cove isn’t simply about impressive people.
It’s about the ideas they bring with them.
Ideas that challenge how we think.

Experiences that reveal something we may have overlooked.
And new ways of understanding the problems—and possibilities—shaping our world.
