Button 2026 (Online)

Button 2026, the premier conference for content design, returns after a one-year hiatus with a two-day online event taking place from September 24 – 25, 2026.

The conference will feature an engaging programme of keynote presentations, panel discussions and practical sessions covering a wide range of content design topics. Each session includes a live Q&A, giving attendees the opportunity to interact directly with speakers and gain deeper insights. Beyond the scheduled talks, participants can connect through the conference’s attendee-driven Slack community to exchange ideas, share resources, discuss industry trends and discover new career opportunities.

For those looking to dive even deeper, an optional pre-conference “Intense Day” on September 23 offers live, demonstration-led workshops focused on in-depth workflows, tools and techniques that participants can apply immediately in their own work.
