However, if attending in person isn’t feasible, Salesforce has introduced a new streaming service called Salesforce+, allowing you to participate in Dreamforce from anywhere. Register early, as ticket prices increase as the event draws closer, and remember that Dreamforce ALWAYS sells out!

Dreamforce Agenda and Speakers

Dreamforce always brings together renowned names and thought leaders to speak at the conference.

Last year, the event featured distinguished individuals such as Matthew McConaughey, Bono, Jennifer Hudson, and many more as keynote speakers. This year’s lineup promises an impressive roster of household names, SaaS leaders, and innovative entrepreneurs. As usual, co-CEOs Marc Benioff and Parker Harris are likely to kick-start the 2024 conference.

Our recommendation is to prioritize attending the major keynotes while also making time for smaller, more personalized sessions.

The Dreamforce Agenda Builder is a useful tool that helps you plan, schedule, and organize all the sessions and keynotes you’re interested in attending. When planning, remember to register early, as popular keynotes and trendy sessions tend to fill up quickly.

Who Is Playing at Dreamfest Concert?

The most thrilling aspect of Dreamforce is undoubtedly the larger-than-life concert known as ‘Dreamfest,’ featuring top-tier musicians.

Tips for First-Time Dreamforce Attendees from Salesforce Influencers

Is it your first year attending Dreamforce?

We asked nine influential Salesforce personalities for advice on how to take full advantage of the event, stories from Dreamforce’s past, and anything relevant they wanted to share.

What is your favorite Dreamforce memory?

“Dreamforce 2017 at the Dreamfest with both Lenny Kravitz and Alicia Keys, followed by a private showcase by will.i.am. In the same week, I was also able to attend the Metallica concert for the Band Together Bay Area event! I know festivals that would be jealous of that lineup.  The second one will be Dreamforce 2019, which happened during the same week as my birthday. So, we decided to celebrate my birthday at the karaoke with my Ohana from all over the globe.” Cyril Louis | CEO & Co-Founder at Mavericx | Salesforce MVP & Salesforce Platform Champion

“Hard to believe this was 10 years ago already, but one of my favorite Dreamforce experiences was the Blondie and Green Day concert at what is now Oracle Park. With typical San Francisco weather, it rained. The set started well, and the field was super crowded despite the rain. As Green Day was starting a song midway through the set, the audio system completely stopped working. Billie Joe quickly pivoted and played a few classics that the full crowd would know, and we all sang along. The sound crew got the system working again, one microphone or instrument at a time, so things came back slowly. It was quite the concert—one I’ll never forget!” Mike Martin |  Chief Customer Officer at 10K | Salesforce MVP HOF

“During the very intimate Dreamforce of 2021 (limited to 1000 people due to the pandemic), the Foo Fighters played the Dreamfest Concert. There were fewer than 500 people present. I was dancing up close and personal off to the side of the stage with all the blow-up mascots around me, and David Gruhl called me (and the mascots) out for having the time of my life!! I took a picture with the mascots and was featured on Salesforce’s social media the next day. I was ‘Salesforce famous’ for a day.” Danielle Laffey | Principal Insurance Solutions at Silverline | Salesforce MVP

“My favorite year was the post-COVID invite-only Dreamforce. It was so easy to find and connect with others. It was by far the best Dreamforce for me.” Terry Miller | President at Terry Miller, LLC | Salesforce MVP

“As a fan of Salesforce and its leaders, shaking hands with Marc Benioff, Parker Harris, and other influential figures was a dream come true. I couldn’t believe I could meet and greet some of the most successful people in the industry. Connecting with them and participating in such an iconic event was an incredible feeling.” Prag Ravichandran Kamalaveni | Director, Salesforce Architect at Skilled Cohort | Salesforce MVP

“Two days before DF19, I went on a road trip with an international group of people I know from the Salesforce community (Ohana). We visited a Redwoods park near Santa Cruz and had lunch on the wharf in Monterey. It was great to venture outside of San Francisco and connect with people on a different level than you would while running from venue to venue during Dreamforce.” Andre van Kampen | Owner at KampKonsult | Salesforce MVP

“It’s my first in-person Dreamforce, but I still have multiple memories with it: When my friend and fellow MVP – Vinay Chaturvedi, went to Dreamforce for the first time, I did a watch party live the same day. He took us on a virtual tour. When my visa got canceled last year, I attended it online, but when I saw my friend Melissa Hill Dees live sitting during the keynote, I felt like I was right there with her with my community. Finally, I’ll be there this year.” Akash Mishra | Senior Technical Architect | 360 Degree Cloud Technologies Pvt. Ltd | Salesforce MVP

“My most unforgettable Dreamforce memory has to be presenting a session at the Admin theater in 2022. Speaking at Dreamforce is an amazing experience!”Christine Marshall | Courses and Community Director at Salesforce Ben | Salesforce MVP

“A few Dreamforces ago, I was invited to an intimate fireside chat with Mark Hamill and Billie Lourd, who were reminiscing about several Star Wars topics. It was fascinating to see them interact and hear them tell stories together.” David Carnes | Chairman and Chief Evangelist at OpFocus | Author | Salesforce MVP. David is the author of the book ‘Mastering Salesforce Reports and Dashboards, Drive Business Decisions with Your CRM Data.’ He believes success with reporting often drives the perception of ROI with systems like Salesforce. Most users don’t have access to more powerful BI solutions, instead being given standard Salesforce reports and dashboards to organize their work, manage their teams, or run their businesses.

What are three activities Dreamforce attendees can’t miss?

Cyril Louis | CEO & Co-Founder at Mavericx | Salesforce MVP & Salesforce Platform Champion:

1. The Ohana Golden Gate Bridge Walk: organized by the Community, it’s a nice walk and a great opportunity to meet people from everywhere. Yes, Dreamforce is also about networking!
2. The Dreamforce Newbie Reunion Breakfast: also organized by the Community (and by the amazing Eric Dreshfield) to introduce ‘Newbies’ to ‘Veterans,’ make connections, gather tips and tricks, have a great breakfast to start the day, and support the nice ‘Project Night Night.’
3. The San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (MoMA): located next to the Moscone Center, where the majority of Dreamforce sessions will be held. Try to keep some energy to discover that great museum!”

Danielle Laffey | Principal Insurance Solutions at Silverline | Salesforce MVP:

1. Go to a hands-on session, it’s a great way to learn!
2. Check out the expo floor, there are so many cool vendors and apps you can use!
3. Get out of your comfort zone and network with everyone!

Mike Martin |  Chief Customer Officer at 10K | Salesforce MVP HOF:

1. Check out the True to the Core session, typically hosted by Parker Harris, to have a dialog with product managers and product leaders to provide feedback on core Salesforce functionality.
2.  Back again this year to close out the week, the michalforce.org Cigar Shindig is a must do. Join the trailblazer community on the final day of the conference for a drink, relax, and wrap up a great week!
3. Check out a Community Networking session at the Community Cove in the Trailblazer Forest. There are a ton of great informal gatherings led my Community Group leaders, with a vast array of themes and topics. It’s a small area, but such a great place to connect with other Trailblazers!

Terry Miller | President at Terry Miller, LLC | Salesforce MVP:

1. Walk the Golden Gate Bridge with Eric Dreshfield and friends.
2. Network with others.
3.  Attend the True-to-the-Core session.

Prag Ravichandran Kamalaveni | Director, Salesforce Architect | Salesforce MVP:

1. Spend most of your time connecting with people.
2. Stick to your agenda builder and focus more on theater sessions.
3. Attend the concert.

Andre van Kampen | Owner at KampKonsult | Salesforce MVP:

1. Attend the ‘True To The Core’ session (Ask Me Anything session with Salesforce executives / Product managers)
2. Attend as many parties, networking sessions and gatherings as possible. Most of the content will be available on Salesforce+ afterwards, so I would focus on something other than content.
3. Come to San Francisco 1 or 2 days earlier to attend social gatherings like the ‘Dreamforce Ohana Golden Gate Bridge Walk’, organized by Eric Dreshfield & Johan Yu. This one is especially great for Dreamforce Newbies.

Akash Mishra | Senior Technical Architect | 360 Degree Cloud Technologies Pvt. Ltd | Salesforce MVP:

1. Do not miss the keynotes, also please plan the sessions you want to attend, well in advance.
2. Network as much as you can
3. At-least be there couple of days prior to DF

Christine Marshall | Courses and Community Director at Salesforce Ben | Salesforce MVP:

1. Attend the keynote to stay up to date with the latest announcements
2. Have lunch in the Yerba Buena Garden, a beautiful relaxed space away from the madness
3. Spend time with fellow Trailblazers that you don’t often get to see in person

David Carnes | Chairman and Chief Evangelist at OpFocus | Author | Salesforce MVP:

1. Seek out the roadmap sessions for the products you care about. They are where you can learn where the products and platform are heading, and ask questions of the product managers.
2. Attend one or more Circles of Success sessions for topics that interest you. They provide relevant content and the chance to discuss things that are important to you with others in a similar situation. (Full disclosure: I’ll be leading circles this year on sales reporting!)
3. Ask your questions. Most people who speak at Dreamforce and other events are willing to answer questions and engage with you. Sometimes this isn’t possible onsite at the event due to scheduling, but can also be achieved after with a friendly note on LinkedIn saying you attended their session and sharing your question.

What’s the best tip you can give a first-time Dreamforce attendee?

“Don’t overload your agenda! Trust me, you would need time between sessions to engage with the speakers, talk with attendees, and walk from one session to another. Wear comfortable shoes, and bring an extra power bank to charge your cellphone.” Cyril Louis | CEO & Co-Founder at Mavericx | Salesforce MVP & Salesforce Platform Champion

“A scheduled and plan is important, but be sure to leave time in between to let organic connections and conversations happen!” Mike Martin |  Chief Customer Officer at 10K | Salesforce MVP HOF

“Go to live, in-person events to – network, network, network!! The sessions are recorded so you have access to that content when you return home. You won’t have access to all those amazing connections you can make if you put yourself out there! I have met people at Dreamforce that have become clients, mentors, mentees, and colleagues.” Danielle Laffey | Principal Insurance Solutions at Silverline | Salesforce MVP

“Talk to people. I’m not a natural extrovert, but the best of Dreamforce happens in the hallways. It’s essential to say hello and converse with those around you.” Terry Miller | President at Terry Miller, LLC | Salesforce MVP

“Wear comfortable shoes, as you will be walking a lot. It is better to practice walking a couple of miles a day, a month in advance.” Prag Ravichandran Kamalaveni | Director, Salesforce Architect at Skilled Cohort | Salesforce MVP

“Wear comfortable shoes (and bring an extra pair.)” Andre van Kampen | Owner at KampKonsult | Salesforce MVP

“It’s the Grandest Salesforce Event of the year, dance – dream – network – have fun – learn as much as you can and you won’t regret being there!” Akash Mishra | Senior Technical Architect | 360 Degree Cloud Technologies Pvt. Ltd | Salesforce MVP

“Check which sessions will be available on Salesforce+ – watch these at a later date and spend the time on things you can only do or see at Dreamforce in person.” Christine Marshall | Courses and Community Director at Salesforce Ben | Salesforce MVP

“Given the size of the event and almost frantic pace of activities, if you pass by someone you know and hope to talk to while at Dreamforce, seize the moment to connect with them on the spot since you may not cross paths with them again at the conference.” David Carnes | Chairman and Chief Evangelist at OpFocus | Author | Salesforce MVP

What’s your favorite Salesforce mascot?

“I choose Brandy! I was waiting for so long to have a mascot representing the Marketers. My daughters would have picked Astro. We have so many at home!” Cyril Louis | CEO & Co-Founder at Mavericx | Salesforce MVP & Salesforce Platform Champion

“As a former admin, I’m partial to Cloudy the Goat, but I’d have to say my favorite is Hootie McOwl Face.” Mike Martin |  Chief Customer Officer at 10K | Salesforce MVP HOF

“Cloudy makes me happy – I mean he’s a cute goat that dances, so he is an honorable mention! But I if I have to choose a top it would be Ruth. She was the first female to enter the group and represents the technical architects. As a woman leader in tech, primarily hanging out in the insurance space, I can relate! There were not many women in this vertical in leadership roles a few years ago. I love that I’m part of that change!” Danielle Laffey | Principal Insurance Solutions at Silverline | Salesforce MVP

“Einstein because he has so much insight. I learn so much from him.” Terry Miller | President at Terry Miller, LLC | Salesforce MVP

“I used to be a Saasy fan but moved to Astro when it was launched. There was no specific reason,  it was love at first sight.” Prag Ravichandran Kamalaveni |  Director, Salesforce Architect at Skilled Cohort | Salesforce MVP

“Blaze the Wolf is my favorite Salesforce mascot! Blaze represents Customer Success, and she is also a bit of an underdog *pun intended*. Blaze helps customers and partners to stay on the path to Customer Success.” Andre van Kampen | Owner at KampKonsult | Salesforce MVP

“Ruth – Because I’m an architect.” Akash Mishra | Senior Technical Architect | 360 Degree Cloud Technologies Pvt. Ltd | Salesforce MVP

“Einstein! I’m a big fan of all the Salesforce Einstein products.” Christine Marshall | Courses and Community Director at Salesforce Ben | Salesforce MVP

“Ruth the elephant is my favorite mascot, as architects are always good to have nearby.” David Carnes | Chairman and Chief Evangelist at OpFocus | Author | Salesforce MVP
