E3 2024—or at least the start of this summer’s big gaming events—has arrived. There’s no convention in Los Angeles this year, but E3 is alive in spirit, with nearly a full week of livestreams starting with the reveal of Battlefield 2042 on June 9 and running through press conferences from Nintendo and Bandai Namco on Tuesday, June 15.
The “official” E3 broadcasts start on June 12, but there’s a whole lot going on in and around the major press conferences. Here’s a schedule of every event happening for E3 2024, organized by day and timezone.
When is E3 2024?
All summer! Well, okay, not really: E3 has some official dates again, with livestreams running from June 12 – June 15, 2024. But just like last year, publishers have decided to host their own events whenever they see fit. The first big E3 stream this year was Summer Game Fest Kickoff Live on June 10th, and it’s a busy few days after that.
Below we’ve listed every summer gaming event being held in June (and a few announced for next month, too).
The easiest place to watch
How do I just watch every E3 event on one stream?
If you’re confused by the difference between “official” E3 events and other gaming livestreams happening this June, you’re definitely not alone. It’s confusing for us, too. But all that really matters is knowing where you can stream everything without missing out on any of the events.
From June 12 – June 15, you’ll be able to watch every gaming event on the official E3 streams:
E3’s livestream will include hosting big events like Ubisoft’s and Microsoft’s as well as interviews with game developers in between.
If you leave the E3 channel running for four days straight you shouldn’t miss a moment—except for the first few events listed below, which start before E3 proper. It had to be a little complicated, right?
