Passes & Registration
Pre-Registration is an early check-in option that lets you pick up your official conference wristband on-site before the event starts. If you pre-register, you’ll already have your wristband and can head straight into the conference without waiting in the main registration line.
Regular Registration happens on-site when you arrive at the venue. You’ll scan your e-pass at the Registration area and receive your wristband, which you’ll need for entry and access to both days of the event.
Exact times for both Pre-Registration and Registration will be shared closer to the conference, so please check back on this page or keep an eye on your email for updates.
Your official pass will be issued as an e-pass (QR code), and emailed to you approximately two weeks before the conference. Please present it on your phone (or bring a printed copy, if preferred) at on-site Registration.
After scanning your e-pass, you will receive an official conference wristband, which is required for entry and provides access to all conference activities on both days.
You can buy a pass with USD at checkout using a credit or debit card (Visa, Mastercard, American Express or Discover), or pay with On-chain Bitcoin (BTC).
The Whale Pass is an all-inclusive VIP experience at Bitcoin 2026.
A VIP experience thoughtfully curated by its very own Whale Service team.
When you purchase a Whale Pass you unlock access to the exclusive Backstage VIP lounge, Whale Night Party to network and party in style, Whale-Only content sessions, elevated opportunities and invites, luxury hotel options, dedicated Whale Services Liaisons and much more.
As the all-inclusive VIP experience at Bitcoin 2026, each Whale Pass is valid for one (1) individual entry to the Conference events (including Whale Night).
Pro Day, occurring on the first day of Bitcoin 2026, is a gathering of the world’s leading businesses and projects within the Bitcoin ecosystem. An entire day dedicated to high-value networking, now amplified by our AI-powered networking app and access to the Enterprise Hall — an exclusive conference perk for Industry and Whale Pass holders only.
