This year, aside from the event happening a little early, it will actually take place at the company's headquarters in Mountain View, California at 10am Pacific Standard Time. In recent years, the event had been held either in New York or San Francisco.

We're not sure what all Google plans to show, but the invitation says we'll see the latest in Google AI, Android software, and Pixel devices. We're thinking this is when the new, highly anticipated, Pixel devices might be revealed, as is customary for the hardware event that takes place in the latter part of the year.
