How Conferences Are Winning Big with Influencers
Conferences used to rely on brochures, panels, and newsletters. Today, they’re bringing in influencers to spark buzz, fill rooms, and keep audiences engaged online and IRL. The marketing game has shifted and the brands winning are the ones embracing it.
Why Influencers Work for Conferences
Think GRWM videos, behind-the-scenes clips, speaker shoutouts, and real-time stories that create nonstop anticipation. Influencers don’t just show up, they bring the party with them and it shows! A single Instagram Story or TikTok can create massive momentum, boost registration, and even attract media coverage.

When it comes to culturally relevant, high-impact events, CultureCon is setting the tone! With panels featuring stars like Tracee Ellis Ross, plus a marketplace for creators and founders, the buzz starts long before opening day.
They’ve partnered with influencers like Mattie James and Tonya Rapley, giving their audiences a front-row seat to the full experience. It’s not just a post, it’s a moment that makes people wish they were there. That kind of energy fills rooms and turns attendees into fans!
