SBC Summit Lisbon 2026: 24 Side Events Guide

From padel tournaments and executive dinners to private parties and official SBC networking, events across Lisbon and Estoril run from September 27 to October 1, 2026.

SBC Summit returns to Lisbon from September 29 to October 1, but networking around the event starts two days before the exhibition opens. At least 24 side events and official networking sessions are scheduled across Lisbon and Estoril between September 27 and October 1.

The programme ranges from padel tournaments and affiliate meetups to C-suite dinners, awards ceremonies and late-night parties. Access varies considerably: some events offer public registration, while others require an invitation, application or specific SBC Summit pass.

Check Access Before Building Your SBC Summit Schedule

Not every side event operates under the same access rules. Having an SBC Summit pass does not automatically provide admission to private dinners, invitation-only parties or independently organised events.

Applications may also require approval and do not guarantee entry. Attendees should use the registration or organiser link for each event to check the latest schedule, availability and access conditions before adding it to their calendar.
