Whether you’re a IT leader, admin, or developer, use this curated agenda to navigate the keynotes, sessions, and hands-on experiences dedicated to the Salesforce Platform.

Dreamforce is more than just a conference‌ — it’s an opportunity to connect, learn, and be inspired. With so much to do, it can be overwhelming to plan your days. That’s why our Platform Team has put together an itinerary to help you make the most of your time and dive deep into all things Salesforce Platform.

Day 1, Tuesday, Oct 14: Get Inspired and Go Hands-On

Morning: Kick off With the Keynote

Start your day by attending the Dreamforce Main Keynote with Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff. This is a can’t-miss event where Marc always makes big announcements and features surprise guests. Be prepared to be wowed and get a glimpse of the future of the Salesforce ecosystem. Add the Main Keynote to your Dreamforce agenda or stream it virtually on Salesforce+.

Afternoon: Deep Dive into the Platform

After the keynote, it’s time to choose your own adventure. Head to the Trailblazer Forest to get hands-on with new products and meet fellow Trailblazers. Make sure to visit both Platform Park to see our latest developer tools, and the Trust Zone to learn about our security and privacy products.

One of the sessions we recommend most on day one is the Admin Keynote, where you can learn how Salesforce Admins power the Agentic Enterprise by building and customizing agents, configuring the agentic platform, and safeguarding trust. If you’re attending Dreamforce in person, make sure you add the Admin Keynote to your agenda or catch the session as it’s streamed on Salesforce+.

On day one, you’ll also be able to attend your choice of more a dozen Platform sessions related to devops and security. Whether you’re an IT business leader, developer, administrator, or architect, there’s something for everyone.
