Microsoft has officially announced the dates and location for its annual developer conference, Microsoft Build 2024. The event will occur May 21-23 (same as we posted earlier) at the newly opened Summit Building within the Seattle Convention Center.

It was revealed by @msdev on X.

The conference website has been updated with the information, and users can sign up for email updates regarding further details, including registration dates and pricing. While registration details are not yet available, Microsoft historically offers live streams of keynote conferences and select panels for free online.

Build 2024 is expected to focus on Microsoft’s plans and development roadmap for the coming year, with a potential emphasis on artificial intelligence (AI) integration and innovation. 

Past iterations of Build have seen significant announcements for developers, such as the introduction of Copilot in 2023. While the core audience remains software developers, some announcements may extend beyond technical communities.

Key takeaways:

  • Dates: May 21-23, 2024
  • Location: Seattle Convention Center, Summit Building
  • Website: https://build.microsoft.com/
  • Registration opens soon: Sign up for email updates
