How to watch the special event

Apple’s next iPhones are almost here, announced on Monday, September 9. Here’s everything you need to know about when and how to watch the announcements as they unfold. And you can read all the details about what’s happening after the keynote here.

Apple Special Event: Date and Time

Monday, September 9th is the date for the event, which is called “It’s Glowtime.” This reportedly refers to the glowing effect that Siri will have on the new iPhones. It’s a major sign that Apple is emphasizing Apple Intelligence, which it will undoubtedly do at the event.

It’s worth noting that this keynote is on a Monday. Apple has never launched an iPhone on a Monday before. It’s usually a Tuesday or occasionally a Wednesday.

The reason for the change has not yet been officially announced, but the conflict with the presidential debate between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris, which will take place on Tuesday, is certainly part of it.

The time is exactly as expected: 10am Pacific Time (that’s 1pm Eastern Time, 6pm for people in the UK). That matches the time Apple uses almost all of the time.

Apple Special Event: How to Watch

There are several ways to watch the keynote. This one is filmed. It is not a live event, but there is an in-person portion for members of the press to watch the broadcast at the Steve Jobs Theater in Apple Park.

First of all, you can go to the Apple website. The text on the event page says, “Tune in on apple.com or the Apple TV app.” So not only is it on the website, but if you have an Apple TV, iPhone, iPad, or Mac, you can also watch it on the Apple TV app. The app is also available directly on some smart TVs. Note that you do not have to be an Apple TV+ subscriber to watch

Then there’s the YouTube option, which means Apple’s YouTube channel. The holding page here confirms how many days remain until the special event, and even lists the date and time in the time zone you’re watching from.

There are also other sites that host the keynote. The advantage of this is that reporters can comment directly on what is being announced. The disadvantage is that you may not want that kind of interference.

It won’t be long now.
