“Backlog World,” the project management festival, returns this year! Early-bird tickets available through the end of October

The story

Backlog World 2026 is a large-scale event hosted by JBUG, Japan’s Backlog user group, for people involved in project management. It will be held on 28 November 2026 at PACIFICO Yokohama North, marking its 7th edition.

This year’s theme is “Ultramarine Compass.” The event aims to provide a forum for speakers and participants to share practical insights while exploring “new ways for teams to work” in a world where Backlog and AI serve as a compass. The program is scheduled to include talks, open-call presentations, workshops and networking.

The event will also host the final judging for the “Good Project Award 2026,” which recognizes project teams that have achieved results using Backlog. Admission is ¥2,000 for the main event, ¥1,500 at the early-bird rate, ¥6,000 for the main event plus networking reception and ¥5,000 at the early-bird rate. Individual supporters pay ¥10,000 at the early-bird rate. All prices include tax and require advance payment, and early-bird sales run through 31 October.
