The Super Early Bird Rate and the Early Bird Rate are only available to individual and corporate members of Agile Alliance. Agile Alliance members registering while these rates are still available do not need a discount code or special link — the Super Early Bird Rate or Early Bird Rate will automatically be applied to your registration.

If you are an Agile Alliance member, you can register at the Super Early Bird Rate while tickets last. Once the Super Early Bird registrations are sold out, the Early Bird Rate is available while tickets last. Once both rates are sold out, the Member Registration Rate will be available. If you are a member registering with one of the select number of discounted registrations, you do not need a discount code or special link — the Super Early Bird Rate or Early Bird Rate will automatically be applied to your registration.

If you are an active individual or corporate member of Agile Alliance, please ensure you are logged into your Agile Alliance account.

If you still do not see the Member Registration Rate, verify that you are an active individual or corporate member.

We encourage you to become an Agile Alliance individual member so you will receive membership benefits.

Individual Membership dues of $49/year enable us to create content and initiatives that educate, inform, and inspire Agile practitioners, including a global set of resources, events, and communities to help people reach their full potential and deliver innovative solutions like never before. We urge you to become an individual member of Agile Alliance to support our ongoing activities, gain full access to all available content from past conferences, and obtain discounted member rates for Agile Alliance events including Agile2024.

Agile Alliance’s priority for all meetings and events is the safety and welfare of our members, attendees, exhibitors, partners, and team. On May 11, 2023, Centers for Disease Control (CDC)  marked the end of the federal COVID-19 PHE declaration. All Agile Alliance events in the United States will follow the guidelines issued by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and/or those issued by state and local authorities. Current information can be found on the CDC site.

Some members have reached out to the Alliance board and other leaders to express their concerns about the location of Agile2024 in Texas. For conferences of this size, the venues are reserved many years in advance. Agile Alliance addressed similar concerns related to holding Agile2023 in Florida. We recognize the conference location might cause anxiety and safety concerns for some members of our community and those who support them. These are important concerns, and we are listening.

Agile Alliance has partnered with SocialOffset to offer meeting attendees the opportunity to contribute to local organizations in Dallas that make a positive difference in people’s lives and the local community.

We invite you to use this campaign to take meaningful action and offset any internal conflict you may have about tax spending in Dallas, TX, that doesn’t align with your values by supporting local charities that do.

We worked with SocialOffset to select vetted charities that support reproductive freedom, LGBTQ+ equality, and racial justice in Dallas. We realize there are other causes and charities that are important to you. If you would prefer to donate to a cause that is not on this list, please do so! And remember, every donation counts! Learn more about the story behind SocialOffset.

New to the Agile2024 Conference? You'll want to make sure you are at the Opening General Session on Monday to hear about how you can get the most out of your Agile2024 Conference Experience.

Agile2024 brings together Software Developers, QA Professionals, UX Designers, Infrastructure Engineers, Data Scientists and more to learn from world-class experts and practice their craft together.

Connecting and sharing is at the heart of the conference. There is no substitute for face-to-face contact, and the event is designed to enhance networking opportunities between attendees, speakers, and sponsors. We feel that day passes detract from this high-quality experience, so we do not offer them.

If you’re interested in attending Agile2024, but not sure how to convince your organization or company to fund the trip, we’ve come up with a sample letter that you can use as a starting place for crafting your own request for attendance. Just copy, paste and edit the letter as needed. If you have questions about earning PDUs or SEUs, please scroll down to the end of this page. View the letter now >

Agile2024 has a dress code of “business casual”, however we encourage attendees to dress in whatever they find most comfortable.

These meals are included with your conference registration:

• Breakfast (daily Monday to Friday)
• Lunch (daily Monday to Thursday)
• Reception-style food stations (Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday evenings)

We also provide 4 drink tickets which can be used during evening events on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday (cash bar available as well).

By allowing your badge to be scanned at certain times during the event, such as at vendor displays, you are consenting to sharing your contact details with the specific Agile Alliance exhibitors who scan your badge. If you do not wish to be contacted by sponsors, do not allow your badge to be scanned.

All sessions will be in English.

If you have already registered as a group and would like to add one or more individuals, you can log back into your registration to do this.

To add another person to your group, please have the Primary Attendee (the person who made the registration) log back into their registration:

• Go to the Agile2024 registration page
• Select View or Change Your Existing Registration
• Provide the password you set when making the initial registration
• Once you are logged in, select Add Another Person
• You can then add additional attendees to your group. You are able use a different form of payment than the original group purchase.

If some of the people in your group cancel from your group registration, bringing the total number in the group below 5, you no longer qualify for the Group Registration Rate.

If this happens, your first option is to find a sufficient number of substitutes to get the number in the group to 5 or more. Please keep in mind that the deadline to substitute registrations is July 18, 2024.

If you are unable to find substitutes and the total number in the group falls below 5 registrations, each remaining person in the group will be charged at the Regular Registration Rate and will have an outstanding balance due.

Substitutions from the same organization are welcome with no additional fee, as long as the substitute qualifies for the same type of registration (member/regular). If the substitute attendee does not qualify for your rate, an additional fee may be required. If a substitution is necessary, please contact us.

The Group Registration Rate for Agile2024 is $2049 and is available to anyone. You must be a group of 5 or more and the group must be purchased in one payment. You can add registrations to your group beyond the initial five registrations.

If you have a large group and would like to do individual payments for the group registration, please contact us for further instructions.

Agile Alliance is not able to offer Letters of Invitation to attendees. It is solely at your discretion to obtain the necessary paperwork for your visa. Past attendees have found that providing proof of registration and hotel confirmations have been sufficient documentation to acquire the necessary visa.

Agile Alliance is not able to assist with your visa process. For information about how to apply for your visa, please visit https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas.html

Agile Alliance is not a registered education provider (REP) with PMI. However, since Agile2024 is a conference supporting Agile education you should be able to apply the hours you spend at Agile2024 toward PDUs. Submitting your registration confirmation should be sufficient documentation to have the hours accepted.

Visit Project Management Institute (PMI) to learn more

Please note: The decision to accept these hours is made by PMI, the certifying body. As Agile Alliance is not a registered education provider for the organization, we cannot guarantee PMI will accept the conference and award your PDUs.

Yes! Each hour of your continuing education – the time you spend reading articles, volunteering, attending events such as Agile2024, and taking courses – equals one “Scrum Education Unit,” or SEU. Presenting, coaching, and attending sessions all count as SEU-eligible activities. We ask that you add a certification-specific number of SEUs before you may renew your certification every two years. This maintains the credibility of your Scrum Alliance certification.
1. Log into scrumalliance.org
2. Hover over “Hello, {Your Name}” in the upper right corner of the screen
3. Look left! Click “Manage SEUs” under the calculator icon.
