Dreamforce: Spontaneity is Your Friend

While you've probably spent weeks planning your Dreamforce schedule, there's always room for a little spontaneity. Here are some ideas for things to do and see that might not be on your original itinerary:

1. Explore the City

San Francisco is a beautiful city with plenty to offer. Take a break from the conference and explore some of the local attractions:

  • Golden Gate Bridge: A must-see for any visitor to San Francisco.

  • Alcatraz Island: Take a ferry to Alcatraz and learn about its infamous history.

  • Fisherman's Wharf: Enjoy fresh seafood, street performers, and stunning views.

  • Chinatown: Explore one of the oldest and largest Chinatowns in the United States.

2. Attend a Lightning Talk

Lightning talks are short, informal presentations that offer a unique glimpse into the world of Salesforce. Keep an eye out for lightning talk sessions happening throughout the conference. You might discover something new or be inspired by a fellow Trailblazer.

3. Join a Meetup or Happy Hour

Dreamforce is a great place to connect with other Salesforce professionals. Look for meetups or happy hours happening in the city or at the conference. It's a great way to make new friends and learn from others.

4. Check Out the Expo Hall

The Expo Hall is a treasure trove of new products, services, and demos. Take some time to explore and see what's new in the Salesforce ecosystem. You might discover something that could be a game-changer for your organization.

5. Attend a Keynote Session

While you might have already planned to attend the main keynote sessions, consider checking out some of the smaller keynote sessions happening throughout the week. You might hear from a thought leader in your industry or discover a new perspective on the future of Salesforce.

Remember, the best part of Dreamforce is the unexpected. So don't be afraid to step outside of your comfort zone and explore all that the conference has to offer.
