CES 2026, the world’s most important consumer tech show, kicks off in just a few days. If you’re not in Las Vegas to see it live, don’t worry: You can watch the key presentations on your phone or computer.
To make it easier for you, we’ve assembled an overview of the key events, livestreams, and presentations.
What/when is CES 2026?
CES, or Consumer Electronics Show, is an annual technology convention in Las Vegas, Nevada, one of the largest such events in the world. Numerous consumer tech manufacturers bring their new wares to the event; typically, this includes everything from TVs to gaming consoles, phones, chips, robots, cars, and a multitude of battery-powered gadgets of all shapes and sizes.
This year, CES starts on January 6 and ends on January 9. Do note that the program, including live-streamed sessions, actually begins one day earlier, on January 5.
There are also numerous pre-announcements and teasers that happens days or even weeks ahead of the event. Check out our coverage so far.
CES 2026 exhibitors
Basically ever tech company under the sun will be there, except for Apple which typically does its own events.
This includes Samsung, LG, Nvidia, AMD, Qualcomm, Alphabet, Meta, Sony, Hyundai, Hisense, Lenovo, TCL, and many others.
CES 2026 full schedule
The official schedule for CES is available here. Note that it doesn’t say anything about embargoed events (only the media gets invites and info on those ahead of time).
Where can I tune in online?
Given that the physical CES event is for industry-affiliated folks and not the general public, most people will be following it online.
Your first resource should be the official CES video library, where you’ll be able to see all of the video content, with videos of keynotes and sessions uploaded at the end of each day. The library also hosts a number of supporting video content such as countdowns and recaps.
The official CES YouTube channel is another must-have resource. It will host live keynotes, events, and interviews, as well as shorts and other official videos.
Finally, the major keynotes and events will be livestreamed through the companies’ channels. We’ll link some of the most interesting ones as we list them below.

Ever since it became clear Nvidia is the company that powers the bulk of the AI revolution, everyone’s been waiting (again and again) to see what the company CEO Jensen Huang has to say.
As is appropriate, Huang will deliver a keynote at 4PM ET on January 5.
There are currently no specific product announcements lined up, and Nvidia says its presence at CES will be about “cutting-edge AI, robotics, simulation, gaming and content creation.” But make no mistake, his keynote is always an interesting watch, and the company says more than 20 demos will be shown at CES 2026.
You can watch the event live over at Nvidia’s website. It will probably be available on YouTube as well, but we don’t have the link for that yet.

LG is hosting its traditional CES 2026 keynote at 11 a.m. ET on January 5., under the tagline “Innovation in tune with you.”
A lot of it will be about artificial intelligence, but given that LG is known for bringing its bleeding edge display solutions to CES, we expect the company to spend some time talking about its OLEDs and Micro RGB TVs.
You can watch the keynote on LG’s website, on the company’s YouTube channel, or on X.
Samsung CES 2026 keynote
Samsung’s CES keynote has an interesting tagline: The First Look, indicating that the company will have new products to show. The keynote, hosted by TM Roh, CEO and Head of Samsung’s Device eXperience (DX) Division, kicks off at 10p.m. ET on January 4.
