Africa Blockchain Festival 2026 (ABF) is the continent's premier gathering at the intersection of blockchain, AI, and Africa's digital future. The 2026 edition takes place at the Sarit Expo Centre in Nairobi, Kenya, on October 15–17, under the theme "Code, Capital and Continuity: Building Africa's Permanent Digital Economy."
ABF convenes policymakers, investors, builders, and global Web3 leaders across three days, structured around three pillars: policy dialogue, startup innovation, and capital. Following its debut in Kigali, the festival's move to Nairobi reflects East Africa's growing role in digital assets, fintech, and stablecoin adoption.
More than a conference, ABF connects the architects of Africa's regulations with the founders building its infrastructure — making it a defining platform for the continent's decentralized economy.
