The ultimate Salesforce event of the year is just around the corner and the buzz is all over the physical and virtual world. If you’re looking forward to this spectacular event, this guide will help you navigate your way through Salesforce’s highlight of the year – Dreamforce.

What is Dreamforce?

As an annual four-day event that allows the entire Salesforce community to come together, Dreamforce aims to celebrate Trailblazers from all across the world. It is an event that allows one to share their own success story and learn from others.

When does Dreamforce take place?

Normally, Dreamforce is held during the fall, between the months of September and November. For the year 2019, Dreamforce is scheduled to take place from the 19th to the 22nd of November.

Where is Dreamforce held?

Dreamforce is held in San Francisco, California. The event is held at multiple venues such as Moscone Center, Salesforce Tower, Marriott Marquis, InterContinental, Palace Hotel, Hilton Union Square, Park Central, Hotel Nikko, City View at Metreon, and Westin St. Francis, among others.

Who attends Dreamforce?

Loads and loads of people! Dreamforce saw over 170,000 registered attendees from all over the world across every industry and business field in the year 2018. The event is mainly for Trailblazers in any company, regardless of whether it’s a startup of four or a Fortune 500 member. Dreamforce has something amazing to offer to them all.

Besides the massive number of on-ground attendees, the event is usually watched live via Salesforce Live or Twitter by over 13 million viewers.

Cost of Attending Dreamforce

When it comes to attending Dreamforce, the best way to snag a good deal on the registration fee is to apply as soon as possible. The price of the Full Conference Pass for the year 2019 ranged from $1,599 to $2,299. You even have the opportunity of experiencing Dreamforce using a free expo pass (the registrations for which will soon go live).

Registration for Dreamforce

Though the Full Conference Passes for Dreamforce 2019 have been sold out, one can easily register using a valid code. And if you do not even have a valid code, you still have the opportunity to experience Dreamforce in all its glory via a free Expo pass (to be released soon). A further fourth option is also available at your disposal—tuning in virtually via the Salesforce LIVE broadcast.

What can you expect at Dreamforce?

One thing is for sure – Of the four days at Dreamforce, you can never expect to find a dull moment. Dreamforce offers a myriad of opportunities to its attendees:

  • Opportunity to learn

The lifeblood of the event is learning in a manner that is both insightful and fun. With over 2,700 keynote and breakout sessions, training and certification opportunities, chances to get a hands-on experience of new technology and products, test-driving thousands of customer success solutions, the opportunity to gain an intimate understanding of Salesforce products at demo stations, and a whole lot more, Dreamforce never falls short of rendering a one-of-a-kind learning experience.

  • Opportunity to be inspired

At Dreamforce, take part in engaging and thought-provoking discussions by various reputed industry leaders, pioneers, and luminaries. Some of the noteworthy sessions of Salesforce 2018 include the discussion on the climate crisis by former Vice President Al Gore and that on ethics of Artificial Intelligence (AI) delivered by Tristan Harris.

  • Opportunity to give back

“Joys shared get multiplied whereas sorrows shared get divided,” and this is an adage Salesforce lives by. Amazing things only take place when we give back to the community that has poured so much into us. At Dreamforce, you also have the opportunity to make a difference in the lives of the people who need it the most by partnering with several non-profit organizations. You can volunteer for either packing backpacks with local school supplies or kits for victims of natural disasters, participating in a book drive, and much more.

  • Opportunity to have fun

With all of the above, how can one leave fun out of the mix? Dreamforce offers many opportunities to have fun such as e-connecting with both online and offline friends, taking selfies with Astro and the gang, exploring the beautiful city of San Francisco, and socializing via several power breakfasts, lunches, meetups, and parties (especially the ultimate party of Dreamfest).
