Sports Summit.
April 19-22, 2026
West Hall, Las Vegas Convention Center
New in 2026, NAB Show will debut an expanded four-day Sports Summit presented in the Sports Theater on the West Hall show floor. Open to all attendees for the first time, the Summit will spotlight the technologies, business models, and industry shifts redefining how sports are produced, distributed, and monetized — including the rise of athlete-led media ventures. Sessions will examine production, rights, distribution, investment, and policy, with insight from teams, broadcasters, and technology partners driving the evolution of live sports.
