RDC 2023: What Is It, When Is It, and How Can I Attend?

The 2023 Roblox Developers Conference and Innovation Awards ceremony will be held at Fort Mason Center in San Francisco, CA from September 8–9, 2023.

What Is It?

Featuring groundbreaking keynote presentations, in-depth breakout sessions, and networking opportunities, RDC is designed to empower you with the knowledge you need to reach your full creative potential on Roblox.
