Red Alert. Shields up! Celebrate September 8th with the cast, crew, and creative minds from all corners of the Star Trek Universe. Star Trek Day is warping in!
Get ready to return to the Neutral Zone because Star Trek Day is returning in 2021. Last year’s live-streamed event was the home of the biggest reveals from the Star Trek Universe, and this year is no different. Paramount has confirmed that the event will see new exclusive panels for Star Trek: Prodigy, the new animated series; the new season of Star Trek: Discovery; and even Star Trek: Strange New Worlds. The all-new series featuring Captain Christopher Pike and the crew of the starship Enterprise.
STRANGE NEW WORLDS
Strange New Worlds was a glaring omission from last year’s event, and fans were left frustrated by the overall lack of content. But thankfully, this year, stars Anson Mount, Rebecca Romijn, and Ethan Peck will finally peel back the curtain and give us our first look at the new adventures of the U.S.S. Enterprise. What’s more, Paramount also dropped the first logo for the hotly-anticipated new series which you can see below:
But that is just the tip of the iceberg. Hosts Wil Wheaton and Mica Burton will guide us through over two hours of free live-streamed panels and programming that will reunite iconic cast members and creative minds from 10 Star Trek television series. Together, they will gather to celebrate 55 years of Star Trek. But don’t take our word for it. Check out the event’s schedule below:

TREKKING GOOD FUN
What an awesome lineup. And I cannot wait to get my first look at Strange New Worlds. But with Picard, Lower Decks; Discovery, and Prodigy so heavily featured, Star Trek fans can look forward to a relative feast of content this September. And that is an exciting prospect.
Star Trek Day gets underway on September 8th. We’ll be on hand to cover the event and will bring you the big reveals as they emerge. You’ll never miss a thing with Future Of The Force.
