It’s iPhone season and Apple is kicking it off with an event on Monday, September 9. The event, dubbed “It’s Glowtime,” is expected to showcase the iPhone 16 lineup, the Apple Watch Series 10 (or possibly X), SE 3 and Ultra 3, and new AirPods. We could even see a new iPad mini and more—so you’ll definitely want to tune in.
Fortunately, you don’t need an invite to Apple Park to watch the event live. It will be streamed online for everyone to watch. We have embedded the live stream below, so you can watch it here once the event starts. There are other options too, and we outline these below.
If you’re interested in watching the event, here’s everything you need to know. And while you wait, be sure to catch up on everything we expect Apple to announce at the event.

Apple says other platforms may be able to access the stream using recent versions of Chrome or Firefox (MSE, H.264, and AAC required). To watch, visit the Apple Events page.
Can I attend the Glowtime event in person?
No. Apple doesn’t open its iPhone events for attendance by the public. There may be an in-person component to the event and select invitees will be at Apple Park to watch it “live” (although the presentation will probably be a pre-recorded video). Some stores may play the video on Macs and televisions within the store, but Apple no longer holds official watch parties for its keynotes.
