Nerdist is streaming New York Comic Con’s biggest panels free online, letting fans watch Main Stage and Empire Stage programming on Nerdist’s YouTube channel during NYCC weekend.
The Nerdist article says the outlet “has teamed with New York Comic Con as an official livestream syndication partner” and will carry the major panels so viewers can watch without buying a Javits Center ticket.
New York Comic Con’s official livestream page confirms NYCC runs Thursday, October 8 through Sunday, October 11 and that two livestreams will bring Main Stage and Empire Stage programming to viewers worldwide.
You can watch the live streams on Nerdist’s YouTube channel and on NYCC/Popverse channels; the official NYCC page lists YouTube and Twitch among the platforms carrying Empire Stage and Main Stage programming.
Nerdist’s published page links directly to the live streams and notes the feed will include panels for properties such as Blade Runner 2099, Final Fantasy VII Revelation, Star Trek, and Avatar: Seven Havens, giving remote viewers access to major film, TV and game panels.
Not every panel is guaranteed to be filmed or streamed; the NYCC livestream page says “livestream programming is subject to change” and that some panels or portions may not be filmed at the discretion of content owners or participants.
If you miss a live panel, the NYCC site says Main Stage and Empire Stage panels will be available on demand to Popverse members after the show, alongside extended interviews and extras.
How to watch: open Nerdist’s official YouTube channel and look for the NYCC live playlist or the labeled NYCC livestream videos, or follow the NYCC livestream schedule on the convention site to pick the Main Stage or Empire Stage feed you want to watch.
