CanUX 2025 Program

We are currently working on revealing the speakers for our 2025 program. This year’s format will be similar to our last edition, with 2 days of workshops (Wed-Thu, Oct 1-2, 2025), followed by 2 days of single track, plenary conference sessions (Fri-Sat, Oct 3-4, 2025) ranging from 25 to 45 minute timeslots. The Friday schedule will be from 9am to 5pm, while the Saturday schedule will be from 10:00am to 4pm. 2-day conference tickets include access to the plenary sessions on Friday and Saturday, while workshop tickets must be purchased individually.

The 2025 conference program will be progressively revealed starting in the spring and summer months, and is currently underway. This year’s program highlights both Canadian and international user experience and service design-related stories, that cater to diverse interests and perspectives. To stay up-to-date with the latest CanUX 2025 announcements, check this space, our LinkedIn announcements, and subscribe to our monthly newsletter. If you’d like to get an idea of what you can expect, you can also check out our previous editions’ schedules through the “Program History” area on the right of this section, or below the lineup if you are on a mobile screen.

Our 2025 Call for Speakers for 30 min presentations and half-day workshops is open until March 15, 2025.
The final schedule for CanUX 2025 will be released on July 31st. See you then!
