TOKEN2049 Singapore is back, and it's bigger than ever. The conference, widely considered the world's largest crypto event, returns to Marina Bay Sands on 7–8 October. Organizers expect 25,000 attendees from over 7,000 companies across 160 countries. That's a lot of people, and a lot of business cards.
Marina Bay Sands hosts the biggest edition yet
This year's event marks a return to the iconic Singapore venue after a few years of shifting formats. The 2026 edition will feature 500 exhibitors and 300 speakers, plus 1,000 side events scattered around the city. For context, that's roughly double the exhibitor count from the 2024 edition — though the organizers haven't released final numbers for that year. The sheer scale suggests the industry is in a different place than it was a couple of years ago.
25,000 attendees from 160 countries
The attendee list reads like a who's who of global crypto. With people flying in from 160 countries, the event is a genuine international gathering — not just a regional meetup. The 7,000 companies represented range from exchanges and DeFi protocols to venture firms and regulators. That last group is worth watching: regulators have been a more visible presence at crypto conferences lately, and TOKEN2049 is no exception.
500 exhibitors and 300 speakers
The exhibition floor will be packed. Five hundred booths means attendees will have plenty to walk through, and the speaker lineup — 300 names — covers everything from infrastructure to policy. The 1,000 side events are a hallmark of TOKEN2049; they turn Singapore into a week-long crypto hub, with parties, workshops, and private dinners running in parallel to the main stage. If you're planning to attend, book your hotel early.
The event runs 7–8 October at Marina Bay Sands. Registration is open now.
