Dates
15 to 17 October 2026

Africa’s largest blockchain festival

Africa Blockchain Festival brings the people building the continent’s digital economy into one room: founders, developers, investors, banks, mobile money operators and the regulators writing the rules. After a first edition in Kigali, it moves to Nairobi for 2026, and this year it carries our name.

Where to find us

Two days on the exhibition floor and several sessions on stage. Come and see the app working, ask us anything, and leave with an account.

On the main stage

A keynote, a live product demo, a fireside chat and a panel. What Inkryptus is, why we built it for Africa, and how to check every claim yourself.

At our booth

On the exhibition floor on days 1 and 2. Our team helps you install the app, open an account and find your way around it.

In the workshop

A hands-on hour for people new to crypto. Bring your phone: you leave having made your first operation, with us beside you.

Session times are published with the official agenda. We add them here as soon as they are confirmed.

Kenya Airways is the festival’s airline partner. The code ABF26KE takes 12% off flights within Africa for travel from 8 to 24 October.

Where to stay

The partner hotel is Park Inn by Radisson Westlands, with up to 30% off. Westlands is the district the venue is in.

Getting around

The airport is 30 to 60 minutes from the venue depending on traffic. Book rides through Uber or Bolt.

Why we’ll be there

Inkryptus is a crypto app built for people who are not already inside: one account, one wallet, no seed phrase to keep. We started in 2020, and most of the people using the app today are in East Africa. Sponsoring the continent’s blockchain festival is how we meet them in person.
