Workday Rising 2026 runs October 12–15, 2026.

Workday Rising 2026 is held at The Venetian Resort and Caesars Forum in Las Vegas, Nevada.

The Full Experience Pass is $2,395 at the Advance rate through September 16, 2026, and $2,595 at the Standard rate from September 17. Public Sector and Academic Groups pay $2,395 for four or more passes on an invoice with a .gov or .edu email. One Guest Customer Appreciation Party Pass costs $395 for a guest who is at least 18, while supplies last.

Workday Rising welcomes existing customers, prospective clients by invitation, sponsoring partners, financial and industry analysts, and accredited media. The conference is built for executives, leaders, and technical teams who manage or evaluate Workday systems, including HR, finance, and information technology professionals.

It is most useful for HR and finance teams that run Workday, such as CHROs, HRIS managers, CFOs and controllers, since the speakers are Workday's own product, technology and AI executives and attendance is mainly customers and partners. Organizations not on Workday, or those weighing cost, will get less, because a full in-person pass is $2,395 in advance and $2,595 after, before hotel costs in Las Vegas.

Attendees at large enterprise software conferences usually wear business casual, such as chinos and a polo or blouse, with comfortable shoes for the long walks between the Venetian and Caesars Forum.

The audience includes Workday customers, invited prospective clients, sponsoring partners, financial and industry analysts, accredited media, and professionals in HR, finance, and information technology.
