Solana Breakpoint side events run alongside the main conference in London from 15 to 17 November 2026, and Solana's own community calendar listed 38 of them inside that window when NAUT read it on 27 October 2026. 12 of the 38 are Solana Fitness Zone sessions, which leaves 26 dinners, happy hours, brunches and competitions where deals get talked about, and 11 of the hosting organisations have a NAUT page with their team on it.
How this list was built: NAUT pulled Solana's official community calendar at luma.com/BP-SideEvents, titled "Breakpoint 2026 Community Events", on 27 October 2026. The scope is every entry with an offline London location that starts on 15, 16 or 17 November 2026, which is 38 of the 57 upcoming entries the calendar held that day across all cities. Host names were matched against the NAUT directory: 11 organisations resolved to a page, and 15 host names found no match, so they stay unlinked here. Counts for the official conference come from NAUT's Breakpoint 2026 page, read on 27 October 2026. The Breakpoint 2026 side events calendar adds entries every week, so treat 38 as a floor rather than a final count, and it is a calendar of open events rather than a guest list.
What are the Solana Breakpoint side events, and when are they?
Solana Foundation runs Breakpoint 2026 from 15 to 17 November 2026 at Olympia in London, and it runs the community calendar where independent teams post their own events around it. The middle day is the busiest.
| Day | Side events | Fitness Zone | Networking |
|---|---|---|---|
| 15 Nov | 14 | 4 | 10 |
| 16 Nov | 16 | 4 | 12 |
| 17 Nov | 8 | 4 | 4 |
| Total | 38 | 12 | 26 |
The Solana Fitness Zone block is the same 4 slots every morning: classes, yoga, boxing, reiki and sound healing. Strip those out and 16 November is the day that matters, with 12 of the 26 networking events, including 2 of the 4 dinners.
Which Solana Breakpoint side events have a host on NAUT?
11 hosting organisations in the window resolve to a NAUT page, so a BD team can go from the event to the people who run the company that is paying for it. The days below are the days Solana's calendar listed on 27 October 2026.
| Host | Side event | Day |
|---|---|---|

 Figment |
London Happy Hour | 17 Nov |
 GMGNAI |
GGC: GMGN Global Championship, London Finals |
16 Nov as listed |
Forward Industries is the only host with 2 entries in the window, a dinner on the opening day and a happy hour the next afternoon. GMGNAI runs the London finals of its global trading championship, listed on the calendar for 16 November, and a competition final can move inside the week, so confirm the slot on its own event page before you plan a day around it. Lukka is named on the Pr1me dinner's own page as one of the firms powering it, alongside the Onchain Finance Institute, so treat it as a co-host rather than the organiser.
The other 15 host names are small studios, local Superteam chapters, event brands and a few firms the directory has not picked up yet. They are worth a look on the calendar itself, and they are the gap NAUT fills next.
Which Solana Breakpoint sponsors also host their own side event?
5 of the hosting organisations are already on the official Breakpoint 2026 roster, which means they are paying for stage time and for an evening of their own in the same week. That is a signal about budget and intent.
| Host | Roster | Their side event |
|---|---|---|
| Altitude |
Platinum | Licence to Spend, 16 Nov |
| Render |
Platinum | Beyond the Frame, 16 Nov |
| Rain |
Gold | Licence to Spend, 16 Nov |
| GMGNAI |
Gold | GGC London Finals |
| Forward Industries |
Speaker | Breakpoint Dinner and FWDI Happy Hour |
The 2 investor hosts, Multicoin Capital and Foundation Capital, are not on the conference roster. They are in London for the week anyway, each with an evening on 16 November.

What this tells a BD team
- Work 16 November first. It holds 12 of the 26 networking events, 2 of the 4 dinners and both investor evenings.
- Start with the 5 hosts that are also on the roster. A team that buys a sponsorship and throws its own party has a budget and a reason to meet people.
- The 11 linked hosts are the warm path. Each NAUT page carries the company's team, so you can ask for the right person by name before the week starts.
- The 12 Solana Fitness Zone slots are the cheapest rooms to get into, and they repeat every morning, so they are a fallback rather than a target.
