Roblox Developers Conference 2023 (usually shortened to RDC 2023) was an annual conference event that started on September 8, 2023, and ended on September 9, 2023, at the Fort Mason Center for Arts & Culture in San Francisco, California. A typical Roblox Developers Conference event includes game and platform update announcements, networking opportunities with major developers, and game-building events, such as an overnight game jam for attendees. It also was set to host the 2023 Roblox Innovation Awards before it was later postponed.

On March 14, 2023, Roblox announced information about the event for the first time in a DevForum post, specifically the location, time, and website of RDC 2023, and confirmed that the 2023 Roblox Innovation Awards would take place at RDC.[1] A further DevForum post was made on June 13, 2023, announcing that registration for RDC 2023 had opened.[2]

On September 9, 2023, the co-scheduled 2023 Roblox Innovation Awards at RDC was cancelled shortly before it was scheduled to begin due to 'potential security concerns.'[3] Reportedly, this was a result of the arrest of Simbuilder Roblox Verified Badge, who had attempted to enter the event uninvited and allegedly assaulted officers when confronted.[4] According to police records, a firearm, a high-capacity magazine, and armor-piercing ammunition were later found in his car.[5] The 2023 Roblox Innovation Awards were later held virtually in November 2023.
