Planning a US AI conference trip in 2027

• Pick a hub. San Francisco (8), Washington (4) and Santa Clara (4) have the most events. The Bay Area alone has 16, so a single trip to San Francisco or Silicon Valley can cover more than one event. Each city page lists every event there, across all dates.
• Sort out entry early. Visitors from Visa Waiver Program countries need an approved ESTA before they fly; everyone else needs a visitor visa, and interview wait times at some consulates run to months. Research conferences usually issue invitation letters only after you register, so register early if you need one.
• Book inside the room block. Large US conferences negotiate hotel blocks that sell out weeks ahead, and prices near big venues such as Las Vegas, San Diego and Santa Clara rise sharply during show weeks.
• Watch the calendar fill up. Many organizers announce their 2027 dates only after their 2026 edition, so the second half of 2027 looks quieter now mainly because it is not announced yet.
• Confirm on the official page. Every event page on AgentConfs links the official source and shows when it was last checked.
