Last week, Apple announced a series of new devices, and now it’s Meta Platforms’ turn. The parent company of Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp is having its annual developer conference, Meta Connect, which kicks off this evening.
Here’s everything you need to know about how to watch Meta Connect and what to expect.
When is Meta Connect 2025?
The conference kicks off Wednesday, September 17, at 5 p.m. PT / 8 p.m. ET, with a keynote speech from Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg.
According to Meta, you can watch as Zuckerberg “shares the latest on AI glasses and lays out Meta’s vision for artificial intelligence and the metaverse.”
