AWS re:Invent 2026 schedule Las Vegas

yazan Nate: Tech

AWS just released the full schedule for re:Invent 2026 in Las Vegas. Registration is officially open, but you have to move fast because the early bird discount ends in a few days. If you are done with sit-and-watch conferences, this event is built entirely around hands-on building. From Nov 30 to Dec 4, you will be solving real infrastructure problems alongside 60,000 peers in Vegas. Here is exactly what this hands-on week covers for experienced engineers. The technical depth is serious, with 40+ 500-level sessions and 300+ 400-level sessions designed strictly for those who know their stuff. Interactive learning makes up the bulk of the agenda, as 70% of the 2,200+ total sessions are hands-on builders' sessions, chalk talks, code talks, and workshops. You also get unfiltered expert access, meaning you can talk directly with the service engineers who actually build the tools you use. Bring your hardest architecture constraints and get real answers. The gamified training lets you test your skills against realistic workloads through AWS Jams, GameDays, and the Architecture Rodeo. Career prep is also on deck to fast-track your growth with on-site bootcamps and discounted certification exams. The early bird discount ends August 25. You save $1,200 and bring the ticket price down to $1,299.
