For now, it appears that Google hasn&#8217;t shared an official location for its event. <\/p>\n<p>                        Plenty to talk about<\/p>\n<p>But, if we had to take a guess, and if the past is any indication, we&#8217;d say that there&#8217;s a pretty good chance that the two-day event will take place at the Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View, California. Google has hosted I\/O at this location over the past several years.<\/p>\n<p>However, there&#8217;s also a chance that Google could shake things up. Of course, we&#8217;ll just have to wait for official details. But, just like past events, Google will livestream keynotes and sessions, providing developers with a wealth of new knowledge in the process. <\/p>\n<p>So, even if you&#8217;re not able to attend, you can still gain plenty from just watching sessions online. Google I\/O is an exciting time because this is where we get to see future products and services come to life. Google has dedicated a good portion of its time recently to showing off its AI efforts, but it still manages to balance the show with some Android highlights as well. <\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re interested in anything Google has to say, you&#8217;ll want to <a href=\"https:\/\/io.google\/2026\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">register for this event<\/a> to get the latest news. By registering for the event, Google will send all the news you&#8217;re interested in directly to your inbox. Although Google used to showcase plenty of consumer hardware at its <a href=\"https:\/\/www.androidpolice.com\/weekly-android-news-roundup-may-17-2025\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">I\/O events<\/a>, that hasn&#8217;t been the case recently, so we wouldn&#8217;t hold our breath.<\/p>\n<p>But, there is a pretty good chance we&#8217;ll see specialized projects involving some impressive hardware like Google Beam. If you&#8217;re the least bit curious about what I\/O is like, just <a href=\"https:\/\/www.androidpolice.com\/tag\/google-io\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">check out our coverage from last year<\/a> to get an idea. We&#8217;ve also popped in the keynote from last here in this article if you care to watch it.<\/p>\n<p>While there can be a lot to process, it&#8217;s a great way to see what Google is working on now and for the future. It&#8217;ll be interesting to see just what new projects are being worked on and see if Google will drop some surprises as well. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"We knew that Google I\/O was just around the corner, but the brand has now taken the wraps&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":482011,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[49,48,61],"class_list":["post-482010","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-technology","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-technology"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/482010","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=482010"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/482010\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/482011"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=482010"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=482010"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=482010"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
