TOKEN2049 says its Singapore event will return to Marina Bay Sands on 7–8 October 2026, with the organiser expecting more than 25,000 attendees. The gathering is scheduled ahead of the Formula 1 Singapore Grand Prix weekend and is positioned as a meeting point for digital-asset companies, investors, institutions and policymakers.
The organiser’s scale expectations
In a 6 August release distributed by GlobeNewswire, the organiser said it expects delegates from more than 7,000 companies across 160 countries. It also targets 500 exhibitors and 300 speakers across a programme occupying all five floors of the convention venue.
Those figures describe the organiser’s plans, not a completed attendance count. The release said the first 100 speakers had been announced and that more than 70 per cent of exhibition space was already secured, while tickets, speaker additions and partnership sales remained open.
A wider week of associated events
The organiser also expects more than 1,000 associated events across TOKEN2049 Week, ranging from conferences and hackathons to investor gatherings and networking receptions. That wider calendar is separate from the two-day main conference and will depend on individual organisers delivering their announced programmes.
What the announcement signals for Singapore
For Singapore’s innovation economy, the practical relevance is the concentration of digital-asset founders, infrastructure providers and institutional-finance teams in one week. It may create a dense window for partnerships, hiring and market-entry conversations, but event scale by itself does not demonstrate investment, adoption or regulatory approval.
Companies considering participation should distinguish confirmed programme details from forecasts. The venue and dates are published on the official event page; attendance and ecosystem-scale figures remain forward-looking organiser statements until the event takes place.
