This year attendees experienced a new design and a new name (Dreampark) for the area between the north and south buildings of the Moscone Convention Center. Spanning a full city block, Dreampark included food, beanbag lounges, live music on two stages, giant screens streaming the keynote sessions, games, and volunteer opportunities.

For the closing-night party, organizers hosted Dreamfest at San Francisco’s Pier 70 with entertainment from the Foo Fighters, the Killers, and Gary Clark Jr. The event was also a fund-raiser for the UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospitals and brought in about $10 million, primarily from sponsors.

While most of the conference sessions took place at the Moscone Center, some were in nearby facilities. The Yerba Buena Center for the Arts housed the first Dreamforce Women’s Leadership Summit, which included Salesforce C.E.O. Marc Benioff and co-founder Parker Harris talking to Kara Swisher, co-executive editor of Re/code.
