Third Day at MVP Summit 2026

Intro

Day three of MVP Summit 2026 was another full day. We started the morning at Building 33, spent the day in sessions at Building 3, made a side trip to the GitHub stand for stickers and pins, and wrapped the evening at a Happy Hour in Bellevue for Windows and Devices and Intune MVPs and invited staff.

Breakfast at Building 33 and Name Badges at the MVP Stand

We took an Uber from the hotel over to Building 33 to start the day with breakfast on campus.

Before heading into sessions, we swung by the MVP stand — and I ended up making name badges for a number of people there, using safety pins. A small but fun way to kick off the morning.

Sessions at Building 3

After breakfast we walked over to Building 3, where the day was once again filled with sessions. As with the previous days, the content was under NDA so I cannot share specifics here.

What I can say is that these sessions are consistently one of the most valuable parts of MVP Summit. Direct conversations with product teams, candid discussions, and the kind of depth you simply do not get anywhere else.

Group Photos at the Plaza

At lunchtime we took the opportunity to take some group photos outside on the plaza. First up was a group shot with the Surface MVPs, followed by one with the Windows Cloud MVPs — a great way to capture the people you only get to see in person once a year.

A Detour to the GitHub Stand at Building 33

In between sessions I also made my way back to Building 33 to visit the GitHub stand. I managed to score some more stickers and pins — all of which are going straight into the MyStickerBox to be shared with the community at events and meetups. Always worth the detour.

Happy Hour at Forum Social House — Windows and Devices + Intune MVPs

In the evening we headed out to Bellevue for a Happy Hour at Forum Social House. The event was organised for Windows and Devices and Intune MVPs, along with invited Microsoft staff. A relaxed and enjoyable evening — great conversations, good drinks, and a nice way to wind down after another packed day on campus.

End of Day Three

Another long and rewarding day at MVP Summit 2026. Between the sessions, the side trips for community swag, and the evening events, it is hard to find much to complain about. More to come.
