Fal.Con Europe Sells Out at Record Pace as CrowdStrike Puts the AI Advantage in Defenders’ Hands
With registrations up 60% YoY, more than 3,000 security leaders from over 1,200 organizations across 83 countries will converge in Barcelona to secure AI and use AI to stop breaches
AUSTIN, Texas – October 6, 2026 – CrowdStrike (NASDAQ: CRWD) today announced that Fal.Con Europe 2026 has sold out, reaching capacity faster than ever with registrations up 60% over last year. The momentum builds on a record-setting Fal.Con 2026 in Las Vegas, where more than 10,000 cybersecurity leaders confronted a defining reality for the AI era: every advance in AI can serve the attacker or the defender. AI is part of the enterprise and security is the enabler to deploy faster without losing control, while giving defenders the advantage.
“Winning in the AI era comes down to a simple question: who uses AI better, the adversary or the defender?” said Jennifer Johnson, chief marketing officer at CrowdStrike. “The record demand for Fal.Con Europe reflects the urgency of that question. Cybersecurity’s marquee event returns to Barcelona bigger than ever, bringing the industry together to define what’s next and put defenders ahead.”
From November 2–4, Fal.Con Europe 2026 brings together more than 3,000 security leaders in Barcelona for three days of keynotes, hands-on learning, live demonstrations, and more than 150 sessions featuring CrowdStrike customers, experts, and 60+ ecosystem partners. This year’s theme, “Securing the AI Revolution,” comes to life through executive insights, real-world customer deployments, and hands-on learning. CrowdStrike CEO and founder George Kurtz will deliver the opening keynote, with sessions featuring European enterprises. Attendees will see how leading organizations are securing AI agents at runtime, transforming security operations with AI, and harnessing purpose-built frontier AI to defend at machine speed.
Fal.Con Europe 2026 will showcase more than 60 partner sponsors across CrowdStrike’s expanding European partner ecosystem. Premier sponsors Amazon Web Services (AWS), Horizon3, and Schwarz Digits join Diamond sponsors Dell Technologies, ExtraHop, Intel, Proofpoint, Theta Lake, and Zscaler. Opening the conference on November 2, the Europe Partner Summit will unite CrowdStrike’s regional partner community to accelerate growth and extend the Falcon platform across Europe.
Based on the success of the executive program at Fal.Con 2026 in Las Vegas, Fal.Con Europe will host its inaugural Trust in AI: CxO Exchange, bringing together hundreds of the region’s leading CxOs to discuss best practices for adopting AI at speed while building the security, governance, and resilience required to trust it at scale. CrowdStrike University will offer expert-led training courses to sharpen the skills defenders need to secure the agentic enterprise. The Survivor Games and 25+ hands-on workshops will put attendees inside real-world AI-driven attack scenarios, testing their technical skills and decision-making.
