[UPDATE (Oct. 2022) – MAX 2022 has concluded, but over 200 new online sessions are now available for replay, for free!]
After two years of virtual-only conferences, Adobe MAX—The Creativity Conference is returning this year as a hybrid event with two options: an in-person experience or an online-only route. The in-person event happens for three days in Los Angeles from October 18-20, while the virtual-only option runs for two days from October 18-19.
Come to MAX to get inspired, expand your creative potential and give your career a boost. Learn new skills, discover the latest tools and innovations, and achieve your creative goals. MAX is the perfect combination of information and inspiration, practical knowledge and mind-blowing magic.
The in-person conference is priced at US$1,895 (government & non-profit $1,295, students $299), and will offer all the MAX greatness of the past: 200+ sessions and hands-on labs, mainstage presentations (keynotes and Sneaks), Luminary sessions, networking opportunities, Welcome Reception, Community Pavilion, Meet the Teams, meals and refreshments, and of course the famous MAX Bash. In-person attendance is limited, so act quickly.
The virtual MAX option will offer 200+ online sessions plus live broadcast of keynotes, Sneaks, and Luminary sessions. And just like the past two years, the virtual MAX is a global event and will remain free to attend worldwide.
If you register by August 31st, then you can save $400 on a full in-person conference pass. Pay just $1,495 with early bird pricing here:
Or, if your primary residence is outside of Canada and the United States, then you can get an even bigger discount: you’ll save $500 simply by registering through the MAX International portal… Just make sure to use the international voucher code given there, and you’ll get $500 off.
If you’re a previous MAX attendee, then you’ll be eligible to purchase a full conference pass to Adobe MAX 2022 for even less: $700 off.
To activate all Adobe MAX coupons mentioned above, you must enter a promotion code to apply the discount. Only one promotion discount can be applied per attendee registration. All discounts are applied to the full conference price of US$1,895.
If you can’t join MAX in person, then you can still attend online for the amazing learning and inspiration of over 200 sessions, keynotes, and Sneaks, at no cost:

Dear support,
Your page of 185 hours of training is not working, the page is gone. The page is not found. Thanks
Hi Ed, thanks so much for your comment Apparently Adobe made some changes on their website yesterday and moved the on-demand video recordings for all the MAX 2014 sessions and classes… We have just reached out to them and will report back with their response, and hopefully solve the disconnect. Thanks again for the heads up!
FIXED! Adobe got right back to us with the new location of recorded MAX tutorials and we have updated the article accordingly:
Adobe MAX: 185 Hours of New Courses and Sessions Online – Free!
Hi,
Thanks so much for posting the information on savings for MAX 2016. I would like to take my daughter. I noticed that the student discount is listed for college students. Do you know how I could contact Adobe to ask if they would allow a high school student to attend at that price? She’s a serious photographer with her own website and uses photoshop daily! Thank you!
Hi Susan, you can ask – but can’t say if it will work or not!

We will also inquire on your behalf and see if there’s anything further we can find out.
@ProDesignTools
Thanks so much for your response. I appreciate your help and will also try to contact them.
Sure Susan, no problem. We heard back from our contact on the Adobe MAX planning team. She said no guarantees, but “when registration opens, you can contact Customer Service for assistance with that.”
Full registration should open in April. So check back then, ask nicely, and see how it goes… Please let us know how you make out!
Thank you so much for contacting them and for the information. I am hopeful and will report back in April!
If you are in Colorado and looking to share a ride to MAX 2017, click on the twitter link below and reply. I have room for 3 comfortably. Depending on how many replies I get, I may have to choose at random. Only cost is to help with gas, and provide good conversation. Rough cost for gas for each person is about $30.00. I am leaving Colorado at noon on Sunday the 15th. I will be leaving Vegas at noon on Sunday the 22nd.

Hey Michael, that’s great and thanks for the offer – hope some other conference attendees take you up on that!
wait, so now adobe max is also in a subscription model? what’s next, youtube becoming a subscription service? what? already began? oh. ok. never mind me.
Hi Jorge,
Adobe MAX is not a subscription model. You can sign up to receive a $500 discount sent to you via email. This would reduce your one-time cost of attending the 2019 MAX conference.
There is no financial obligation at all to signing up, and no payment required now or later. It’s just if you’re interested in receiving the discount offer, which you can decide on next year.
Hope that helps.
Thank you so much for this.
