Every year, UX-focused conferences become increasingly more popular. That shouldn’t come as a surprise, though. With the ever-changing world of UX design, staying on top of trends and changes is essential for everyone to respect UX designers, and conferences are a great way to do so.
Not only do they help us refresh our UX knowledge, but they also present a great opportunity to meet like-minded people and get a healthy dose of inspiration and motivation for the upcoming months.
If you are searching for your next conference, we’ve got you covered. In this article, you’ll find a constantly updated list of 2024 UX conferences worth attending.
If you are just starting your journey with UX conferences, consider UXDX, WaysConf, or the UX360 research summit. You can’t go wrong with these.
UXDX is one of the biggest UX conferences in the world, hosting thousands of participants every year.
The three-day-long editions of UXDX conferences contain both talks and workshops led by designers and product managers from companies like Google, Etsy, and Asana.
Prices range from $800 to $3500 depending on the package, with a $200–300 online participation option.
WaysConf, previously known as DesignWays, is one of the biggest UX-related conferences in Europe. The 2022 edition hosted 1500 attendees and 50+ speakers.
Although the conference is design-focused, thanks to four separate tracks, everyone will find a talk or workshop to their liking. With the BeforeWays before-party and AfterWays after-party, this conference is perfect for networking-savvy participants looking to develop new connections.
The best part: the conference costs only around $140.
If you are more into the research niche of UX design, then the UX360 Research Summit is the place for you. What distinguishes the conference is not only its focus on the research subtopic but also the focus on case studies and interactive sessions rather than just mere talks and speeches.
UX360 started as a yearly virtual event (for roughly $350), recently they’ve also started hosting onsite events, the next one being in May in Berlin, priced at around $800.
If neither UXDX, WaysConf, or the UX360 research summit strikes your interests, or you’d like to explore other options, this list has you covered!
