Enterprise Connect, a staple of the UC events calendar, has kicked off its 2025 event with thousands converging on the conference for four days of insights.
With a number of major announcements already made, it’s shaping up to be a big one, not just because of what companies have had to say.
Yes, Enterprise Connect has itself announced that its 2026 event will take place in Las Vegas.
On the surface, this sounds like no big deal, but on closer examination, this represents the first time that Enterprise Connect has held its flagship conference anywhere else.
Examining Enterprise Connect
The move to Las Vegas next year is a curveball from the conference producers that may come as a shock to attendees.
Enterprise Connect is a leading conference and exhibition in North America that focuses on enterprise communications, collaboration, and customer experience. It has been running in one form or another for over 30 years. However, Enterprise Connect as we know it has been operating since 2011.
What’s more, every conference they have held since then has not only been in the same state but also at the same hotel.
Yes, for over 14 years, Enterprise Connect has been held at the Gaylord Palms in Orlando, Florida.
So not only will the new move see attendees get to grips with a new floor plan but also require them to travel across the country entirely.
For those who are veterans of the event, this may mean losing years of familiarity with an event layout you knew like the back of your hand. For others, it could mean a relatively short trip just got longer.
Yet it is not all bad. Beyond temperatures—which hover around the same number for both locations—attendees will be treated to a whole new experience next time they attend.
Enterprise Connect: Las Vegas
Being a year away, not too much is known about the agenda or associated events of Enterprise Connect 2026. However, information supports that Caesars Forum will be where the conference is held.
Caesars Forum is a state-of-the-art convention center in Paradise, Nevada, located just east of the Las Vegas Strip. Opened in October 2020 and owned by Caesars Entertainment, the venue spans 550,000 square feet and includes the world’s largest pillarless ballrooms, offering unobstructed views for events.
