A New MAU Vegas at Bellagio with Earlier Dates
This expansion coincides with MAU Vegas’ move to its new venue at Bellagio Las Vegas, May 4–6, 2027, featuring a reimagined format centered on focused thought leadership, executive-level dialogues, and increased networking opportunities.
Over the three days, discussions will tackle the forces transforming mobile — from AI and agents to app discovery, advertising and measurement, app economics and subscriptions, gaming, creators, commerce, product growth, and the increasingly interconnected future of apps, web, and emerging platforms.
The MAU community will again gather leaders from the globe’s top platforms, apps, brands, gaming firms, and mobile tech providers, with organizations like AppsFlyer as Presenting Sponsor, Adjust as Brand Experience Partner, and Apple, Google, Meta, Paddle, and Roku represented among more than 150 solution providers.
With a new venue, an enlarged industry network, and a redesigned programming approach, MAU 2027 rests on a core idea: the future of mobile should be defined by those building it.
