Apple Adds 'Scary Fast' Event Livestream Placeholder to YouTube and Website

[MacRumors]

Apple is preparing for the upcoming Mac-focused "Scary Fast" event that is set to take place on Monday, October 30 at 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time, and the company has added livestream placeholders both to the Events website and to YouTube.

On the Events website, Apple has added an option to add the event to your calendar, and on YouTube, there is an option to get a reminder when the event begins. While the YouTube placeholder features a static Apple logo, Apple's Events website includes an animated logo that morphs into a Finder icon, hinting at the subject of the event.

Apple has never held a worldwide event at night before, so this is a first for the company. The livestream will begin at 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time on the night before Halloween, which equates to 8:00 p.m. Eastern Time, 12:00 a.m. in the UK, 1:00 to 2:00 a.m. in much of continental Europe, and 9:00 a.m. in several countries in Asia.

Given the late hour of the event, it will be online only, with no in-person component. The "Scary Fast" event will be able to be streamed via the Events website, on YouTube, and through the Apple TV app.

MacRumors will have full coverage of the September 12 event as well, both on MacRumors.com and through our MacRumorsLive Twitter account.

I predict that the Mac lineup will be even more of a mess than it is today.

EDIT: I didn't plan on being right. And here we are. Welp.

 

[Attirex]

Oh boy, there's gonna be some cringe-worthy Halloween themes in this event - cue Tim in a vampire costume, etc.

How long does it usually take for such an event to arrive on the UK Apple Events page?

Dear Apple
Stop posting on YouTube and release iOS 17.1 🧐😄

 

[chinesedemo]

Enough with these over-produced, over-edited product extrapolations. I just want to see Tim and crew go up on stage and work the room. Make people excited.

"Late Night" With Craig Federighi please.

Not looking forward to finding Helloween’s entire back catalogue added to my iTunes library Tuesday morning.

 

[ThaGoochiestMane]

Here's hoping they'll cut the fluff, comedy sketches, and self-congratulation to make it an actually fast event.

 

[scrapesleon]

[Rychiar]

Not looking forward to finding Helloween’s entire back catalogue added to my iTunes library Tuesday morning.

I’d be cool with that.

 

[MacDaddyPanda]

Is "Mother Nature" going to show up again and cringe some more? lol.

Scary fast.

Scary = Halloween = Oct 31

3 = M3
1 = so fast it's number 1

Ergo, M3 launch.

 

[coffeemilktea]

Are we getting a new iMac at last? My dreams might be coming true 🎉

 

[deebinem]

Scary = Halloween = Oct 31

3 = M3
1 = so fast it's 1st place

Ergo, M3 launch. Logic.

A new version of Logic? Oh man, looks like I need to get those AU synths dusted off
