The Record
Sleep Summit 2026 takes place at The Record — a stunning modern-industrial event space in the heart of downtown Bentonville. Originally a mid-century car dealership turned printing house for the Record Daily Newspaper, the venue has been transformed into one of the region's most distinctive gathering spaces, with two large event areas, a full catering kitchen, and professional-grade AV.
Bentonville is home to Walmart's global headquarters, the Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art, and some of the country's best mountain biking trails — a city that punches well above its weight, much like the people who attend Sleep Summit.
The world's largest retailer is headquartered here — a fitting backdrop for conversations about the future of retail.
One of America's premier art museums, a short walk from the hotel. Optional evening visit for attendees.
Over 50 miles of mountain bike trails and hiking paths. Perfect for early-morning rides before sessions.
Bentonville's rapid growth mirrors the ambition of the people who attend Sleep Summit — a city that refuses to think small.
Speakers & Panelists
The 2026 speaker lineup will be announced in the coming months. Past speakers have included CEOs, retail innovators, AI experts, and outside-industry thinkers who challenge conventional wisdom.
