Google’s annual developer conference, Google I/O will take place at the Shoreline Amphitheatre on May 11th and 12th. “This year’s event will be broadcast in front of a limited live audience, and is completely free and open to everyone virtually,” Google spokesperson Alex Garcia-Kummert said in a statement to The Verge.
This would be the first time since 2019 the event will have an in-person audience. The limited live audience is expected to be comprised of Google’s employees and some partners. Google I/O was cancelled in 2020 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic but it returned as a virtual event in 2021.
Registration for this year’s event will be free and it will be starting later in March according to an FAQ page. No tickets will be available which means others who want to attend will have to tune in to the livestream and watch remotely.
Google announced Android 12’s “Material You” design last year, and also updates to Google Workspace. It is not known yet what this year’s event will focus on but we will most likely see more about the Android 13.
