Rare Evo 2026 returns to Las Vegas as one of the premier multi-chain blockchain conventions, taking place July 28–31, 2026 at the ARIA Resort & Casino. With a focus on interoperability and the merging of traditional industries with Web3 technology, the event brings together chain-agnostic communities, industry leaders, developers, investors, institutions, and enthusiasts from every vertical of the blockchain ecosystem.
The convention spans a long weekend filled with opportunities to network, learn, build, and celebrate. Beyond the vibrant expo hall—where projects and professionals can connect, showcase their work, and gain brand exposure—attendees will find a full educational program hosted in the main stage auditorium, featuring panels, fireside chats, and keynote presentations from top voices across the industry.
Breakout rooms provide a more intimate environment for workshops, hackathons, lectures, and collaborative co-working, supporting hands-on learning and meaningful connections throughout the event.
Rare Evo also blends business with entertainment. Guests can step away from sessions anytime to enjoy interactive experiences like digital art installations, Web3 and traditional gaming tournaments, and the ARIA’s wide variety of dining and resort amenities.
VIP ticket holders receive an elevated experience, including hot breakfast, lunch, exclusive merch, and access to food and drinks during the Opening Kickoff Party on July 28.
The heart of the event unfolds on July 29 and 30, delivering two full days of exhibitions, programming, and networking—capped off with nightly after-parties open to all attendees.
Rare Evo 2026 concludes on July 31 with the third annual Rare Evo Poker Classic, hosted at the prestigious PokerGO Studio, bringing together blockchain leaders, investors, and enthusiasts for a finale that blends competition and celebration.
