What's New for 2017
Interactive, Film and Music badges will now include expanded access to more of the SXSW Conference & Festivals. These improvements will offer industry professionals more opportunities to network and discover than ever before. Attendees will still receive primary entry to programming associated with their badge type, but can now enjoy secondary access to most other SXSW events.
The 2017 SXSW Conference includes 24 programming tracks divided amongst Interactive, Film, Music, and Convergence, presented in a variety of session formats. Learn more by taking the Tracks Quiz – select the programming tracks and festivals that most interest you, then discover what badge fits your needs.
Earlier than ever before, we have announced our first wave of 2017 speakers including Jennifer Doudna and Jill Soloway as 2017 Keynotes as well as nine Featured Speakers: Dan Lyons, Mary Lou Jepsen, Earvin “Magic” Johnson, Candice Morgan, Adam Savage, Nadya Tolokonnikova, Ingrid Vanderveldt, Gary Vaynerchuk, and Amber Venz Box.
