Apple sets WWDC 26 for week of June 8 ↦

Collect your meager Kalshi and Polymarket winnings, I guess: Apple has officially announced that its 2026 Worldwide Developers Conference will kick off with an in-person event at Apple Park on Monday, June 8.

As in recent years, the event will run for the week, starting with the Keynote and Platforms State of the Union on Monday, followed by video sessions and labs. Videos will be accessible on the Apple Developer app and website, as well as YouTube.

Those who attend the in-person event will be able to watch the Keynote and state of the union, as well as participate in other activities throughout the day. Attendees will be determined by random selection, with invitations sent out by the end of the day on April 2. You must be a member of the Apple Developer Program or Apple Developer Enterprise Program, or a winner of the 2026 Swift Student Challenge to apply. Additionally, 50 “Distinguished Winners” of the challenge will be invited to a three-day experience that includes Monday’s special event.

There are, as usual, lots of eyes on WWDC, where Apple traditionally announces all its big platform updates for the year to come. This year we’re expecting the “27” year updates, but there are big questions marks hovering around some features, like the much-delayed Apple Intelligence offerings. We’ll find out that and more on June 8.
