Apple’s WWDC26 keynote kicks off Monday, June 8, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. Pacific Time. Here’s the full rundown of start times across major time zones, plus the official ways to watch the livestream on Apple.com, YouTube, and the Apple TV app.
By the time many cities wake up on Monday, June 8, 2026, Apple’s WWDC26 keynote will already be rolling—10:00 a.m. Pacific Time, with the next chapter of Apple software in the spotlight.
WWDC is the weeklong Worldwide Developers Conference built for the people who create apps across Apple’s platforms. including iOS. macOS. iPadOS. tvOS. watchOS. and visionOS. It always starts with a keynote where Apple previews new versions of its operating systems. After that, the event continues for five days with classes and hands-on tutorials for developers building on the new software.
For consumers, the stakes are simpler: what Apple announces during today’s keynote is expected to land on iPhones, Macs, and other Apple devices in the fall.
The event is also expected to tilt heavily toward artificial intelligence powered by Google’s AI models, with much of the focus centered on the ’27 versions of Apple’s operating systems.
Apple’s WWDC26 keynote starts at 10:00 a.m. Pacific Time (PT). Here’s what that means around the world:

If you don’t want to rely on a single device. Apple also makes it easy to watch the keynote through multiple official options. The livestream is available on Apple.com. It’s also on YouTube. For viewers who prefer a living-room setup. it can be watched through the Apple TV app on an iPhone. iPad. Mac. Apple TV. Windows PC. or other supported devices.
With developers and consumers both waiting for the same announcement window, the only question left is timing—whether you’re in the Pacific zone at 10:00 a.m. or checking the clock as it flips to the next day in places like China and Japan.

Wait is this the one where they announce new iPhones or like later in the year?
Why does Apple always do these at 10am like we all live on the west coast. I’m in ET and it says 1pm but also I heard it starts at noon??
So they’re saying “powered by Google AI models” like Apple just straight up uses Google? That can’t be right. Also watchOS getting updates again… my watch will still be dead by 4pm anyway.
Apple TV app on Windows PC? Since when. I tried watching something on Apple.com last time and it kept buffering. Hopefully WWDC26 doesn’t crash right when they show the AI 27 stuff or whatever. Also Moscow time is listed as 8pm but my phone says something different so I guess time zones are optional now lol.
