Check-in at the Hofburg Imperial Palace with ease and take a moment to get familiar with your route to the venue. The TEDAI team will be ready to assist with any last-minute questions, app support, and program details. You’ll also receive your gift bag, name badge, and wristband for a smooth and stress-free registration, ensuring you’re relaxed and fully prepared for the Opening Gala later.

We’ll kick off the conference with a breathtaking Opening Gala held at the conference venue. Vienna is the world’s capital of ball tradition—a city where elegance, music, and celebration have danced together for centuries.

The dress code for the TEDAI Opening Gala is Creative Black Tie, which invites elegance while celebrating your personal style. For attendees of all genders, we recommend: classic tuxedos or elegant suits; mid- or full-length dresses, gowns, or pantsuits. Feel free to add your own twist, for example with a bold (bow) tie or statement jewellery—we’d love to see you shine in what makes you feel fabulous!
‍
To help maintain the special atmosphere of the evening, we kindly suggest avoiding casual clothing such as jeans, open-toe sandals, and other informal attire. Please note: Throughout the night, enjoy delicious finger food, drinks, and snacks—but we recommend having a complete dinner before the Gala.

Start your day with a colourful selection of nutrient-packed breakfast options, revitalizing green juices, and freshly brewed coffee to energize you for the day.

Sign up for a discovery session to delve into your favorite AI topic or discover something completely new. Select panels for expert-led conversations, workshops for essential AI skills, and idea adventures for bucket-list activities that foster meaningful connections. All sessions are first-come, first-serve, so be sure to secure your spot early! *Start times vary.

Sign up for one of our AI-Themed Dinners at the Rathauskeller restaurant, nested in the Vienna City Hall. With Hofburg as our starting point, our team will guide you to and from the venue – but feel free to check out the place on your own as well (see Rathauskeller). From AI & Creativity to AI & Climate and beyond, these Dinners are designed for candid, thought-provoking conversations over delicious Austrian dishes and drinks. Themes will be announced closer to the conference.

Pick a fresh smoothie and grab a delicious bite while our DJ spins vibrant tunes to energize your morning. The beats and flavors at this brunch will set the perfect tone for a dynamic day ahead!

Hear from today’s sharpest thinkers about how AI is changing our world, through four thoughtfully curated sessions. Speakers line-up to come!

After a day full with excitement, inspiration and imagination, there’s only one more thing left: the TEDAI Afterparty! Whether you’re looking to discuss the conference over drinks or celebrate on the dancefloor — this is the party for you.
