Africa Biggest Blockchain Week-Long Festival 2026

For twelve days in September, Enugu Blockchain Week '26 brings together builders, founders, investors, artists and decision-makers from across Africa and the world to shape the next chapter of digital infrastructure. More than a conference, it's a city-wide festival of innovation — workshops, hybrid hackathons, 40+ community side events and immersive cultural experiences converge across Enugu: from the BuidlUp hacker houses to technical deep-dives, and the main stage.

Enugu Blockchain Week is where practical engineering meets bold imagination. Under the 2026 theme “Building the Open Future”, panels and workshops will tackle identity, ZK privacy, stablecoins and DeFi rails, AI x Web3, interoperable infrastructure and public-good funding — all with a single purpose: to move African-made solutions from prototypes to global scale. Expect 4,000+ registrants and 3,000+ in-person attendees, hands-on mentor hours, sponsor-led hack tracks.
