The AWS partner calendar

By Marie ScultoreLast updated: Next 12 months

The AWS dates that move your marketing plan, from November 2026 to December 2027. I list a date only once AWS posts it. Everything else stays under Not posted yet until it is.

Confirmed by AWS

Not posted yet

AWS hasn't posted these 2027 dates. Last year's dates help you plan the quarter, not book travel.

  • AWS Summit Toronto 2027. In 2026, the Summit ran June 3 and the Partner Summit June 2, at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre.5
  • AWS Summit Washington, DC 2027. In 2026, it ran June 30 to July 1.6
  • AWS Summit New York 2027. Not posted.
  • AWS re:Invent 2027. Not posted.1

Dates AWS doesn't publish

Some dates that matter sit in your own Partner Central account, not on a public page: your tier review and your APN fee renewal. Check your Partner Scorecard for both.

AWS has named no deadline for the move to Partner Central in the AWS console.7 You may see deadlines quoted elsewhere. None comes from AWS.
