Welcome to Australasia’s biggest creator economy conference!

NZCreatorcon 2026 is Australasia’s premier gathering for the creator economy, bringing together the region’s most influential digital creators with leading brands, agencies, platforms, and partners for two days of connection, learning, and collaboration. Taking place on 17–18 March 2026 at Pullman Auckland, the event is designed at true industry scale, hosting over 400 creators alongside 400 brands and agencies, with direct participation from the world’s most important platforms including TikTok, Meta, YouTube, Instagram and Spotify

Now in its next evolution, NZCreatorcon 2026 expands beyond social media alone. The programme introduces “Beyond Social” sessions that explore the future of the creator economy across social commerce, product creation, podcasts, and platform-led innovation, reflecting how creators are building sustainable businesses, not just audiences

A major highlight for 2026 is the launch of the Australian Pavilion, creating a dedicated trans-Tasman hub for Australian brands, agencies, platforms, and tools seeking meaningful access to the New Zealand and ANZ creator markets.

At its core, NZCreatorcon is a high-impact marketplace. Sponsors and partners gain unmatched access to top creators, category-defining brands, and decision-makers through hosted rooms and workshops, curated activations, sampling, café and bar integrations, and purpose-built content studios inspired by standout partnerships from previous years

The event also champions emerging businesses through a dedicated “young Kiwi brands x creators” programme, pairing ambitious founders with influential creators to accelerate growth.

NZCreatorcon 2026 is where culture, commerce, and creativity converge—setting the agenda for the creator economy in Aotearoa and beyond
