Why Apply?
While an application doesn’t guarantee a spot, one thing is certain: you have a 0% chance of attending if you don’t apply! ConnectLIVE is about more than just a trip; as well as the opportunity to preview unreleased features, it’s about connecting in-person with Google product teams and leading members of this amazing global family we’ve built together.
Let’s Meet in Person!
I am crossing my fingers and hoping to be invited this year. If I make it, my absolute favorite part would be finally meeting all of you face-to-face.
Who else is applying? Drop a comment below if you’ve submitted yours, and let me know—if we both get in, would you like to meet up? Let’s make 2026 the year we turn those profile pictures into real-life memories!
I have submitted mine. I’d love to meet up, but I am not getting my hopes up. I’m never really strong on the “tell us why we should pick you?” question.

Thanks for the reminder @AdamGT! I have submitted my application. It would be great to meet you and other Local Guides at the event. Hope we both get selected and will have a great meet-up.
The form have filled out. This is my first time applying. Based on my experience interacting with LGs in Japan late last year, I now wish to connect with people around the world.
