XRP Events & Conferences Calendar 2026/2027

Every major XRP and XRPL event in one place. Ripple Swell, hackathons, community days and conferences worldwide, kept current by Wave of Innovation.

The major XRP events still to come in 2026 are XRP Seoul on 3 October, TOKEN2049 Singapore on 7 to 8 October, the SWELL XRPL Hackathon on 24 to 25 October, and Ripple Swell in New York from 27 to 29 October. The 2027 calendar is filling now, and this page tracks every confirmed event as it lands.

Finding XRP events used to mean digging through X threads, Telegram groups and listing sites nobody had updated since last year. This calendar fixes that. We run XRP events for a living, so we keep it current, and we list everything in the ecosystem, including events that are not ours. Bookmark it. We update it monthly.

What XRP events are happening in 2026?

Earlier in 2026 the ecosystem delivered XRP Community Day (global and virtual, in February), XRP Tokyo in April with XRPL Japan, and XRP Australia 2026 at Crown Sydney, the largest dedicated XRP event held in the APAC region. The Make Waves on XRPL builder programme by XRPL Commons ran online from June to 21 September. XRP SoCal, run by Lost Art, is on 5 September in Santa Ana.

What are the major annual XRP conferences?

Ripple Swell is the institutional anchor. It is where Ripple talks to banks, payment companies and regulators. The 2026 merger with Apex matters because the corporate event and the developer event now share one venue for the first time. If you sell to institutions or build on XRPL, this is the one to budget for.

XRP Las Vegas is the community-run counterweight. Less corporate, more retail energy, strong line-ups from XRP media and community figures. Dates for the next edition are yet to be announced. We will add them once they are confirmed.

XRP SoCal is the established community gathering in Southern California, run by Lost Art. The 2026 edition is on 5 September in Santa Ana. We will list the next edition once dates are confirmed.

XRP Seoul has grown into one of Asia's largest XRP gatherings, and the 2026 edition runs on 3 October at the Grand Hyatt Seoul during Korea Blockchain Week. Korea remains one of the most active retail crypto markets in the world.

XRP Tokyo ran in April 2026 with XRPL Japan. Japan is the only country in APAC with a dedicated XRPL organisation of scale behind its events.

XRP Australia is our own flagship, held at Crown Sydney in February 2026 with Ripple as title sponsor. The next edition is 18–19 March 2027 at Crown Sydney; XRP London follows on 2–4 June 2027 at Magazine London.

The community layer is still growing beyond those rooms. XRP Canada, XRPL Africa and Malaysia are building in their regions. Nothing from those groups has a public date on this calendar yet. If they, or any other organiser, need assistance setting an event up, contact us directly.

What is the difference between corporate and community XRP events?

Corporate events like Swell are built for institutions, so the agenda runs on compliance, partnerships and product announcements. Community events are built for holders, builders and operators, so the agenda runs on education, access and networking. Both matter, and they do different jobs. The full comparison is here: Ripple Swell vs Community XRP Events.

What was the biggest XRP event in APAC?

XRP Australia 2026, held on 27 February at Crown Sydney. 400 attendees, a rare Australian appearance from Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse, and the number one trending spot on X in Australia on event day. The full story, including the sponsor line-up and what was said on stage: XRP Australia 2026 Full Recap.

What XRP events are coming in 2027?

Wave of Innovation’s 2027 flagships are confirmed: XRP Australia on 18–19 March 2027 at Crown Sydney, and XRP London on 2–4 June 2027 at Magazine London. Other organisers typically announce four to eight months out, so more of the 2027 line-up will land through late 2026 and early 2027.
