LevelUp 2026 Speakers: The Lineup So Far
Who is speaking at LevelUp 2026? HighLevel has confirmed the first wave of speakers for its flagship conference at the Hilton Anatole in Dallas from October 26 to 29, led by keynote Adley Kinsman. The next batch of names is revealed on August 28. Here is the confirmed lineup so far, what each speaker brings, and how the ticket tiers compare.
LevelUp is the one event on HighLevel's own calendar that agency owners plan their year around. Back when we covered the LevelUp 2026 dates, tickets and format the stage was still a mystery. That has started to change. The speaker reveals are rolling out in stages, and enough names are now official to see the shape of this year's program. This post sticks to what HighLevel has actually published, because event lineups attract a lot of second hand guesswork.
Who is speaking at LevelUp 2026?
As of this writing, nine speakers are confirmed on the official LevelUp page, headlined by keynote speaker Adley Kinsman. The lineup leans heavily toward agency founders and AI focused operators, which tracks with where HighLevel has been pushing its product. More speakers are announced on August 28.
The confirmed names, exactly as listed on the official page:
- Adley Kinsman, keynote speaker
- Alex Schlinsky, Founder of Prospecting On Demand and owner of Drive Digital Advertising
- Brittany Long, Founder and CEO of Impact Driven AI
- Danny Clarke, Founder of Easy Peasy Funnels
- Dar Holdsworth, Founder and CEO of Prolific AF
- Kai Stone, Founder and CEO of StoneSystemsIO
- Paige Battcher, Founder of Kismet Ideas
- Kaitlyn Lemus Portillo, confirmed speaker, role to be announced
- Yesenia Nelson, confirmed speaker, role to be announced
What each confirmed speaker signals about the program
You can read the theme of a conference from who it puts on stage. Grounding this only in the titles HighLevel published, three threads stand out in the current lineup.
- AI is front and center. Brittany Long leads Impact Driven AI and Dar Holdsworth runs Prolific AF, so expect sessions on putting AI to work inside an agency rather than talking about it in the abstract.
- Agency growth and prospecting. Alex Schlinsky built Prospecting On Demand around client acquisition, which points to practical pipeline and sales content for owners who need more deals, not just more tools.
- Funnels and systems. Danny Clarke of Easy Peasy Funnels and Kai Stone of StoneSystemsIO sit on the build side, the part where strategy turns into something that actually runs.
The keynote from Adley Kinsman anchors it all, and with the August 28 reveal still to come, the roadmap and co-founder sessions HighLevel is known for will fill in the rest of the four days.

When are the rest of the speakers announced?
HighLevel is releasing the lineup in stages rather than all at once. The next speaker reveal is scheduled for Friday, August 28, 2026 at 12:00 PM CDT, with registration open on the official LevelUp page. Expect the roster to keep growing through September as the agenda firms up closer to the event.
Is LevelUp 2026 worth attending?
For agency owners and operators building on HighLevel, LevelUp is the event where the next year of the platform is revealed and where the roadmap gets set, so it earns its place if you run your business on this stack. If you cannot make Dallas, the practical move is to make sure your own setup is ready to use whatever ships there. That is often where an experienced team helps: firms like GHLStarboys handle the build so owners can act on new releases instead of falling behind them. If skills are the gap, our guides on hiring a GoHighLevel expert and whether a GoHighLevel certification is worth it are a useful starting point.
