The long-awaited Google I/O 2022 is finally coming! Tons of innovations and exciting ventures are to be unveiled this year. So how and where on YouTube can you watch this year’s event and Google I/O Keynote? This guide will take you through it.

When and where will Google I/O 2022 be?

Undoubtedly, Google I/O is one of the better events of the year. Google takes the opportunity to showcase the latest technology and innovation for developers to work into new apps and existing operating systems. This year will be no different, with keynotes planned to outline new developments in things like Android, Firebase, and Web. Besides that, we’re excited to see what new hardware Google releases this year.

Like last year, Google I/O will be held virtually. This might come as a disappointment to those who miss the crowds and overall energy associated with Google’s event, though it’s a necessary move. That being said, Google I/O will be available to a large audience over livestream, allowing you to take in everything right from home. For users, there will be a couple of ways to tie in on May 11 and May 12. The first keynote will begin on May 11 at 10:00 a.m. PDT.

If you join either of these livestreams before they begin, you can set a YouTube reminder for yourself so you don’t miss a thing.

Another option would be to head to Google’s event page and wait until the timer counts down to zero at 10:00 a.m. PDT on May 11. From there, Google will redirect you to the livestream where you can watch the event.
