Boston AI Week 2026
Statewide festival, September 24 - October 2, 2026

• When: September 24 - October 2, 2026 (Thu - Fri following week)
• Where: Boston (statewide, HQ in Seaport)
• Format: Festival — 300+ events across venues
• URL: https://aiweek.boston/

Festival-format AI week — high volume, uneven signal-to-noise. Value is as an anchor for a two-week Boston pass rather than as a standalone attend.

The Sep-Boston pass, if planned:

• Sep 16-18: UNBOUND 2026 (HubSpot) — marketing/GTM/agents
• Sep 24-25: DevConf.US 2026 — open-source/K8s/observability
• Sep 24 - Oct 2: Boston AI Week — meetup layer

Three weeks of Boston coverage in one late-September pass.

• [ ] Filter the 300+ events for developer-facing sessions once program drops.
• [ ] Prioritize agent-tooling + AI-assisted coding meetups.
• [ ] Skip vendor pitches / "AI for business" panels.
