Usually the last big convention event of the year is New York Comic Con, which is being held this year from October 8 – 11 at the Javits Center in New York, New York. And while the future of Star Trek is in flux, Paramount is returning to New York with a big Star Trek panel for 2026.

Star Trek Universe @NYCC 2026

We are getting the first details on a the official Star Trek Universe panel from CBS Studios and Paramount+ for NYCC. The panel will be split into two parts:

Starfleet Academy: Featuring “exclusive sneak peek and conversation about the upcoming sophomore season.”
60th Anniversary: “Celebrate 60 years of Star Trek with surprise guests from the iconic franchise.”

This appears to be very similar to how they handled San Diego Comic-Con in July, with a 60th anniversary panel of legacy stars, and a panel promoting the fourth season of Strange New Worlds. We will likely get a new trailer and release date for the second and final season of Academy. Maybe there will be more Star Trek news emerging from the event. Paramount has not yet confirmed who will be on the panel, and it’s possible (again like with SDCC) there will be some Star Trek activations or booths to visit as well.

We will provide an update when new info comes out about NYCC.

TrekMovie will be there

We will have boots on the ground at the Javits to bring you all the coverage of what goes down at the Universe panel, plus coverage of other Trek-related events from around the con from licensees and others.
