The Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2026 takes place in Las Vegas in early January, continuing its role as the technology industry’s largest annual gathering. As in in prior years, NVIDIA has confirmed a multi day presence at the event, centered around a formal presentation by Founder and CEO Jensen Huang, along with a series of showcases and partner led sessions tied to the company’s AI and accelerated computing platforms.
Rather than a single keynote appearance, NVIDIA’s CES 2026 schedule spans multiple days and venues, beginning with a company hosted presentation and followed by several days of exhibition activity. The itinerary below reflects NVIDIA’s officially listed CES programming.
