AWS re:Invent 2026 runs Nov. 30 to Dec. 4 in Las Vegas, and Amazon Web Services says more than 2,200 sessions are now live in its catalog. AWS says 70% of the sessions are interactive and that new ones are still being added.
The event page lists AI, security, migration and developer productivity among the session topics. It doesn’t name the services AWS plans to launch, telling visitors only that “new services are launching.”
The keynotes
AWS CEO Matt Garman gives the CEO keynote on Tuesday, Dec. 1, from 8:30 to 10:30 a.m. Pacific time at The Venetian, according to the official agenda. Keynotes are also streamed online.
A developer keynote opens the week on the evening of Monday, Nov. 30. A Data and AI keynote follows on the morning of Wednesday, Dec. 2, and the agenda lists all times as subject to change.
The partner keynote, with Ruba Borno, AWS vice president of specialists and partners, runs on Dec. 2 from 3 to 4 p.m., Andrew Somera, AWS’s head of partner experiences, wrote on the AWS Partner Network blog. Somera wrote that Garman will appear as a guest. The session will cover “migrations run by agents with your data plugged in” along with AWS Marketplace and Partner Central, he wrote.
Around the sessions
The agenda says the Expo hall has more than 420 sponsors and booths, with sessions spread across Caesars Forum, Caesars Palace, MGM Grand, The Venetian and Wynn and Encore.
AWS lists session formats including launch sessions for hands-on time with new services the day they’re announced, builders’ sessions with about 15 people around one problem, and “500-level” deep dives into the research behind its services.
Badge pickup opens Sunday, Nov. 29, including at Harry Reid International Airport, and a welcome reception in the Expo runs the afternoon of Nov. 30, the agenda says. The Customer Showcase is at Caesars Forum.
Reserved seating is open through the AWS Events app, according to the registration page. AWS also offers an AI-powered “Concierge” that suggests sessions, but it’s open only to registered attendees.
AWS lists Anthropic, OpenAI, NVIDIA and IBM among its top-tier “Emerald” sponsors, alongside consulting firms such as Accenture and Deloitte.
A full pass costs $2,499, and buyers of 10 or more tickets in one transaction get 10% off, AWS says. Early bird pricing ended Aug. 25.
AWS has already rolled out several agent products this fall. They include Amazon Bedrock Managed Agents powered by OpenAI, previewed on Oct. 5, and smart approvals for Amazon Quick on Oct. 28, according to AWS announcements covered by AgenticFeed.
