Every year we do this little dance. We try to figure out what's best for the community, what we can actually pull off, and how we can support those who want to get together in person. This is where we landed. Tickets for the first wave of 2027 events are live now. There will be a second wave once we finish finalizing some details, but we wanted to get these out so you can get started planning your year.
How We're Doing Events in 2027
One of my favorite things we're doing this year is partnering with other communities that put on events Bureau members are excited about. That way, we can add on instead of having to run the whole thing, which means we can spend more time building community and less time on logistics.
2027 Collaborations
We're teaming up with Agency Hackers on the Miami Super Summit, and the day before it starts, we're hosting A Bureauverse Afternoon. We're also heading to E2M's Vistara in San Diego and throwing the after-party to end all after-parties. You'll find dates and discount codes in the lineup below.
Bureauverse Is Back, Baby. And This Year, You Can Bring It to Your City
Bureauverse was a big hit in 2026, and to keep it going in 2027, we need your help. We'll be rocking two of them ourselves, in Miami and Philadelphia. The rest are pop-ups, hosted by members in their own cities with our support. If you'd like to toss your hat in the ring and bring a Bureauverse to your town, you can sign up here.

Well, there you have it. That's the first wave of events for 2027. Hopefully, you can find one to put on your calendar and maybe bring a teammate with you. After all, when two people are at an event together, it seems like the planning session happens right away, and the changes actually stick. Soon we'll announce a few more events, so if your fave isn't here, don't get bummed just yet!
