When Sitecore made the unexpected announcement that Symposium wouldn't be taking place this year, it caught many of us off guard. Symposium isn't merely an event; it is a time for connections, sharing, inspiration, and learning about the platform's latest capabilities.

Subsequently, when Sitecore revealed their plans to organize a one-day DX event right here in Minneapolis, Minnesota, we saw an opportunity to do more. We decided to extend the 1-day DX event and step in to fill the void left by Symposium with the HZTL DX+ conference.

Coinciding with SUGCON for developers during the same week, it seemed like the perfect occasion to host an event aimed at business leaders, marketers, and decision-makers. Our objective is to take the foundation of the 1-day Sitecore event and expand it into a comprehensive 3-day conference solely dedicated to the art of cultivating connected customer experiences using the Sitecore platform.


DX is on October 4th and is a one-day event, brought to you by Sitecore, that provides attendees with information on Sitecore’s product suite and roadmap plans.

HZTL DX+ is the two days following Sitecore DX (October 5th-6th) and will provide an immersive exploration of the new Sitecore product roadmap. Encompassing everything from XM Cloud and OrderCloud to Content Hub, we’ll break down the composable product suite into bite-sized, easily digestible learning opportunities.


Both of these event's center around all things Sitecore, yet they cater to distinct groups of individuals.

The HZTL DX+ event is customized to suit the needs of business leaders, marketers, and decision makers. Spanning two days, the primary focus will be on presenting tangible use cases for optimizing Sitecore's capabilities, turning insights into comprehensive business strategies.

SUGCON provides valuable opportunities to learn and demonstrate methods for implementing, deploying and using Sitecore products. Horizontal is proud to be sponsoring SUGCON and our developers will actively participate in the event. See the SUGCON agenda here: https://na.sugcon.events/Sessions


HZTL DX+ will be hosted at the Mall of America, attached to the Radisson Blu, where Sitecore DX is being hosted. We have rented a space on the 4th floor of the Mall of America for both days.


The registration package encompasses full access to the complete event, comprising both mainstage presentations and breakout sessions. Additionally, attendees will enjoy complimentary breakfast and lunch, along with a happy hour on Thursday evening.

Furthermore, your registration grants you admission to the exclusive HZTL DX+ concert at Paisley Park, the private estate of the legendary Prince.


In collaboration with Sitecore, we have taken careful measures to ensure a cost-effective and smoothly coordinated opportunity for expansion alongside their DX event. All attendees of Sitecore DX, HZTL DX+, or SUGCON can conveniently stay at any of the listed hotels, enabling easy access to all the scheduled events.
