Your guide to Salesforce events in 2023

By Chris Thompson

Our guide to Salesforce events in 2023 will keep you up to date on the latest conferences, conventions and user groups in the Salesforce community.

As a Salesforce professional, attending events is a fantastic way to learn more about the world’s number one CRM product, as well as network with fellow professionals to discover new opportunities and ways to increase your proficiency in the technology. However, it’s important you learn about them with enough time to make a business case for attending, or to secure the budget yourself, to ensure you get maximum value for money.

Read on to find out what the year ahead has in store for Salesforce professionals. Got an event of your own to add to the list? Send us an email or reach out to us on social media.

Salesforce events USA / The Americas

Salesforce events UK

Salesforce events Europe

Salesforce events Australia and Asia

But first, let’s answer a few of the most burning questions…

What are the Salesforce events in San Francisco, California?

Anyone familiar with Salesforce will have heard of Dreamforce, the technology’s flagship event, which takes place annually in San Francisco. But with San Fran being such a hotbed for tech talent, events tend to pop up around the year, organized by the many Salesforce user groups in California.

What are the Salesforce events in London, England?

The Salesforce user base across the UK is forever increasing, and London is the epicentre of that, with Salesforce tower standing 230 metres above the nation’s capital. There tend to be two big Salesforce events in London each year: Salesforce World Tour London, and London’s Calling, both of which are detailed later in this article.

What are the Salesforce events in Chicago, Illinois?

The only official Salesforce event in Chicago that has been confirmed thus far is Salesforce Connections in June at the McCormick Place West Building. You can register for that event now.

Is there a comprehensive Salesforce events calendar?

With Salesforce having such a large community of users, new events are organized and announced all the time, and so it’s difficult to produce a conclusive Salesforce events calendar. Rest assured, we’ll try to keep this article up to date and list the newest events as soon as we learn of them!

London’s Calling 2023

London, England

June 9, 2023

The Brewery, 52 Chiswell St

Register here

London’s Calling was the first community-led Salesforce event in Europe, and will continue its tradition in 2023 with another exciting educational event. Over 700 Salesforce professionals attended in 2022, enjoying sessions catered specifically to Salesforce Admins and Developers, with platform experts leading these workshops throughout the day.

One of the event’s core organizers, Kerry Townsend, has likened the event to TED talks, where a community comes together and listens to people who have ideas worth sharing. With this format, users are often inspired by the success of other professionals, and can enjoy an environment where knowledge sharing is casual and conversational—perfect for those looking to advance their Salesforce career but are unsure where to start.

The 2023 event also features the option to purchase a ‘pay it forward’ ticket, allowing those who wouldn’t usually be able to afford to attend, the chance to enjoy the event.

Salesforce Connections 2023

Chicago, Illinois

June 7-8

Save the date for Connections 2023

Connections is an event that promotes customer centricity on the Salesforce platform.

Dreamforce 2023

San Francisco, California

September 12-14, 2023

Save the date for the biggest Salesforce event of the year.

Ask anyone who has ever used Salesforce technology and they’ll tell you that Dreamforce is the event around which the full ecosystem revolves. With new products, strategic partnerships, and platform updates announced at Salesforce’s flagship event, it’s no wonder why so much of the Ohana flocks to San Francisco each year to discover the latest innovations and releases.

At Dreamforce 2022, Salesforce announced Genie in a major revamp of Salesforce CDP, as well as a huge upgrade of Slack that allows for better workflow management plus much, much more. The company has a habit of reserving its big announcements for the technology convention—no stranger to pageantry, Salesforce really makes the most of the big stage, and big reveals are usually sandwiched between live performances and celebrity keynotes.

Dreamforce isn’t just about what Salesforce brings to the table, however. It’s a community event that is just as valuable for learning more about customer success and networking as it is for gaining insights directly from the horse’s mouth. Whether that’s grabbing a breakfast with your peers, partying with network connections, or learning the latest updates and views on the community from industry leaders, there’s something for everyone at Dreamforce.

Read our full Dreamforce 2022 guide to recap what went down in San Fran last time out.

Salesforce user groups

Another great way to connect with the Salesforce community and learn about events in your area is to join a user group. With Salesforce promoting a strong community culture, there are user groups covering location, product, industry, and even diversity inclusion groups. Here is a selection of Salesforce user groups that you may benefit from joining:

Product Salesforce user groups

The value of interacting with likeminded individuals, who use the same Salesforce products and tools as you, cannot be underestimated. Joining a product-oriented user group is a great way to learn new tips and tricks, while having a community resource to learn about product developments and consult if you encounter any technical issues on the Salesforce platform.

– Sales Cloud user groups

– Marketing Cloud user group

– Community Cloud user group

– Service Cloud user group

Industry Salesforce user groups

Salesforce is an extremely diverse technology, and you’d be surprised how the use of CRM changes from industry to industry. Joining an industry-oriented user group is a great way to find out which bespoke solutions or ISVs are being utilized by other professionals in your industry, and how you can optimize your CRM in ways specific to your organization.

– Communications and media user group

– Environment user group

– Financial services user group

– Healthcare user group

– Manufacturing user group

Regional Salesforce user groups

Whether it’s learning about events in your area or simply having points of reference that make more sense to you as a regional native, joining a location-based user group is a fantastic way to get involved in the Salesforce community without having to fly across the world.
