SUMMARY:Workday Rising 2027
DESCRIPTION:Workday Rising is Workday’s annual customer conference\, and in 2027 it moves to San Diego for four days\, September 27 to 30. \nWho it is for\nHR\, finance and IT leaders who run Workday or are weighing it up. Workday says the event welcomes existing customers\, prospective clients by invitation\, sponsoring partners\, financial and industry analysts\, and accredited media. \nWhy go\nThe 2027 program has not been announced. The 2026 edition\, held October 12 to 15 in Las Vegas\, gives a good idea of the format. It centered on agentic HR and finance\, with more than 400 sessions including role-based keynotes for HR\, finance and IT\, product demos\, customer showcases and hands-on labs. Aneel Bhusri\, Gerrit Kazmaier and Joel Hellermark gave keynotes\, and Workday reported over 30\,000 attendees across in-person and digital. Expect a similar mix in San Diego\, with an early look at the product roadmap. \nTickets and prices\nWorkday has not published 2027 prices\, and its site does not list an in-person registration fee. Pricing questions go to risingregistration@workday.events. For reference\, the 2026 digital passes were free for the Essentials pass and $299 for the All-Access pass\, which added all breakout sessions and 90 days of on-demand viewing. Several passes can be bought on one invoice through the Group Pass Portal\, and passes cannot be carried over from one year to the next. Wire transfers and checks carry a $150 processing fee per invoice\, and digital passes are not refunded. \nIs it worth going?\nIf your organization runs Workday for HR\, yes\, it is the place to hear the roadmap first\, see how other customers have configured the same tools and put questions to the product teams. The hands-on labs are useful if your team owns the system day to day. If you are an employee experience or internal comms leader on a different platform\, the value is lower\, because the content is built around one vendor’s products and you will not get vendor-neutral benchmarking. If Workday offers a free digital pass again\, it is a low-cost way to sample the content before you commit to travel. \nGood to know\nDates are September 27 to 30\, 2027\, in San Diego. Workday has not named a venue or hotel block yet. The digital passes in 2026 gave remote access to keynotes and sessions\, but Workday has not confirmed a digital option for 2027. \nVisit the official event site

SUMMARY:Gartner HR Symposium/Xpo 2027\, London
DESCRIPTION:Gartner HR Symposium/Xpo is Gartner’s research-led conference for CHROs and senior HR leaders\, and the 2027 London edition runs from 5 to 7 October at ExCeL London. \nWho it is for\nCHROs and HR executives\, together with the talent\, change and employee experience leaders who work with them. Gartner says it draws more than 1\,500 CHROs and HR leaders to London and has 45+ solution providers in the Xpo. \nWhy go\nSessions are built on Gartner research and led by its analysts\, with more than 50 analysts on the agenda. The 2027 focus is the new human-AI workforce\, foundations for performance and shifting skills requirements\, including AI adoption and literacy and AI in HR. The format includes keynotes\, workshops\, roundtables\, Ask the Analyst sessions and private one-to-one meetings with analysts\, which are limited to paid full-conference attendees. An application-only CHRO Circle track runs alongside the main programme. Speakers have not been announced. \nTickets and prices\nGartner lists prices in euros plus VAT. The early bird rate is €3\,975 and ends on 6 August 2027\, the standard rate is €4\,575\, and the public sector rate is €3\,525 with proof of status. Gartner clients can ask their account manager about special pricing. Groups from the same organisation get a group discount of up to four complimentary registrations once the paid registrations are settled in full. Early bird offers can still apply on top. \nIs it worth going?\nThe price is high\, so the value rests on the research and the analyst access. If you are a CHRO or a senior HR director who needs benchmarks\, a defensible view on AI in HR and time with an analyst on your own questions\, it delivers things you cannot get from a vendor event. Gartner clients with analyst access already have some of this on tap\, which lowers the added value. Practitioners who want peer case studies and informal networking may find a cheaper event closer to what they need\, and employee experience and comms leaders get less from a programme aimed at CHRO priorities. If your organisation is a public sector body\, the public sector rate of €3\,525 + VAT changes the sums noticeably\, so ask about it before you decide. \nGood to know\nDates are 5 to 7 October 2027 at ExCeL London\, Royal Victoria Dock\, 1 Western Gateway\, London E16 1XL. The venue has an Elizabeth line station and three DLR stations\, and Gartner holds a hotel block for registered attendees that opens in the months before the event. Gartner has not mentioned a virtual option. Planning a team day around the event? See team building activities in London. \nVisit the official event site

SUMMARY:Ragan Internal Communications Conference 2027
DESCRIPTION:Ragan’s annual conference for internal communicators returns to Seattle in October 2027. \nWho it is for\nInternal communications\, employee experience and executive communications leaders in mid to large organizations. \nWhy go\nThe conference focuses on the practical side of internal communications\, from executive messaging and manager communications to digital channels\, measurement and the use of AI in comms teams.

SUMMARY:Out and Equal Workplace Summit 2027
DESCRIPTION:The Out & Equal Workplace Summit is a global LGBTQ+ workplace inclusion event\, and the 2027 summit is scheduled for October 11 to 14 in Las Vegas. \nWho it is for\nSenior leaders and executives\, HR and talent professionals\, employee resource group (ERG) leaders\, inclusion practitioners\, legal teams\, people managers and allies. \nWhy go\nOut & Equal describes the summit as the largest global LGBTQ+ workplace inclusion gathering\, with more than two decades of history\, over 4\,000 attendees\, 100+ speakers and more than 200 participating companies. The program has over 100 practitioner-led sessions on belonging at work\, ERG best practices\, allyship\, public policy\, AI and workforce transformation\, and inclusive talent development. There are mainstage sessions\, the Momentum Awards\, roundtables and a complimentary lunch each day. An optional Leadership Lab Day on October 11 runs four tracks: ERG Reboot\, Allyship in Action\, Policy and the Workplace\, and Communicating Belonging. The 2027 agenda has not been announced. \nTickets and prices\nGeneral registration for 2027 opens in spring 2027. For reference\, the 2026 general admission rates were $1\,999 early bird\, $2\,399 standard and $2\,649 last chance. Partner organizations get included registrations and can add more at $1\,999 early bird or $2\,149 standard. Leadership Lab Day is a $599 add-on available with a Partner Summit registration. Transfers\, exchanges and cancellations are allowed up to 30 days before the start date. \nIs it worth going?\nIf you lead or sponsor an ERG\, or you own inclusion strategy\, this is hard to match\, because the sessions are led by practitioners and you spend the days with hundreds of people doing the same job. HR and employee experience leaders who want to understand how LGBTQ+ inclusion works in practice\, beyond a policy document\, also get a lot from it. The price is similar to other major HR conferences\, so the case is strongest when you can send an ERG lead or a small team. Leaders with no active inclusion remit may find the topics narrower than they need. If you are not sure\, the session list in 2027 will show whether the tracks match your priorities\, and the 2025 Workplace Summit Impact Report on the Out & Equal site shows what past attendees took away. \nGood to know\nDates are October 11 to 14\, 2027\, in Las Vegas\, Nevada\, with Leadership Lab Day on October 11. The summit lists special hotel rates and on-demand content alongside the four days of in-person programming. Out & Equal has not named a Las Vegas venue yet. \nVisit the official event site

SUMMARY:UNLEASH Paris 2027
DESCRIPTION:UNLEASH World is one of the largest HR and HR technology events in Europe\, and the 2027 edition returns to Paris from October 19 to 21 under the theme “Repurposing Humanity in the Age of Machines.” \nWho it is for\nHR\, business\, technology and AI leaders\, along with the buyers\, providers\, startups\, investors and analysts who make up the expo floor. The organizers encourage teams to attend together and build a shared plan. \nWhy go\nThe 2027 program and speakers have not been announced. The stated focus is AI and skills\, pay and reward\, and the HR technology stack. The 2026 edition gives a sense of scale: more than 8\,500 attendees from over 140 countries\, 300+ speakers and 250+ exhibitors\, with a main stage\, several session stages and a large expo. Speakers in 2026 included Josh Bersin\, David Green\, Margaret Heffernan\, and leaders from L’Oréal and Ahold Delhaize. \nTickets and prices\nUNLEASH has not published 2027 prices and is currently taking registrations of interest. In 2026 it offered an HR Leader Guest Pass\, in a 2-day version and a 3-day version that adds one Day 1 summit\, for senior HR leaders at organizations with 1\,000 or more employees\, in roles such as CHRO\, SVP\, EVP or Global Head with budget ownership. Applicants who did not qualify were directed to a paid pass. Check whether the same terms apply in 2027. \nIs it worth going?\nIt suits senior HR leaders who are choosing or reviewing technology\, because you can see a large share of the market in two days and meet peers from many countries. If you qualify for a guest pass\, the cost is mainly travel and time\, which makes the case easy. It is less suited to practitioners who want depth on a single topic\, since the size of the expo and the number of stages mean you will spend time choosing between sessions and vendor conversations. Employee experience and comms leaders get the most from the AI\, skills and reward sessions and from meeting suppliers. Past exhibitors have included Workday\, SAP SuccessFactors\, ServiceNow\, Personio and Workhuman\, so you can compare several platforms in one afternoon. \nGood to know\nDates are October 19 to 21\, 2027\, in Paris. UNLEASH has not confirmed the 2027 venue. In 2026 the conference and expo were at the Paris Convention Centre\, Porte de Versailles\, with Day 1 summits at the Shangri-La Paris\, and the organizers recommended booking hotels through their BNetwork partner. The event is in person. \nVisit the official event site

SUMMARY:Gartner HR Symposium/Xpo 2027\, Orlando
DESCRIPTION:Gartner HR Symposium/Xpo is Gartner’s flagship conference for CHROs and senior HR leaders in North America\, and the 2027 edition runs October 25 to 27 at the Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin Resorts in Orlando. \nWho it is for\nCHROs and HR executives\, and the senior talent\, change and employee experience leaders who work with them. Gartner says more than 4\,000 CHROs and HR leaders attend\, alongside 60+ solution providers. \nWhy go\nSessions draw on Gartner research and are led by its analysts\, of whom more than 50 are involved. The focus is the new human-AI workforce\, foundations for performance and shifting skills requirements. Last year’s topics included AI adoption and literacy\, AI in HR and AI’s impact on the workforce. The format covers keynotes\, workshops\, roundtables and Meetups\, private 30-minute one-on-one meetings with analysts for paid full-conference attendees\, an Exhibit Showcase and an HR Xpo for demos. An application-only CHRO Circle program runs for chief HR officers. Continuing professional education credits are offered for select sessions. Speakers for 2027 have not been announced. \nTickets and prices\nThe early bird price is $5\,325 and ends on August 27\, 2027. The standard price is $5\,975\, and the public sector price is $4\,550 with proof of status. Gartner clients can ask their account manager about special pricing. Groups from the same organization get up to four complimentary registrations once the paid registrations have been paid in full. Time-based offers such as early bird still apply\, but other group promotions void the group discount. \nIs it worth going?\nAt nearly $6\,000 for the standard price\, this is one of the most expensive conferences in the HR calendar\, so the case rests on the research and the analyst time. It is worth it for a CHRO or senior HR leader who needs benchmarks to take to the board\, a clear view of how peers are handling AI in HR\, and a private session with an analyst on a live problem. The CHRO Circle adds a peer group for chief HR officers. It is a harder sell for practitioners and for employee experience or comms leaders below the senior HR team\, who can find more hands-on content at cheaper events. Gartner clients who already use analyst inquiry get less new value. \nGood to know\nDates are October 25 to 27\, 2027\, at the Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin Resorts\, 1500 Epcot Resorts Boulevard\, Lake Buena Vista\, Florida. Orlando International Airport is less than 30 minutes from the resort. For the 2026 edition\, Gartner listed partner hotels with a conference shuttle\, including the Hilton Orlando Buena Vista Palace\, JW Marriott Orlando Bonnet Creek and Waldorf Astoria Orlando\, and asked attendees to contact hotels directly. Gartner has not mentioned a virtual option. \nVisit the official event site
