TUNE IN THE HUGOS. Kevin Standlee outlined the “2018 Hugo Ceremony
Coverage Plans”
(http://www.thehugoawards.org/2018/08/2018-hugo-ceremony-coverage-plans/)
on the award’s official website.

The 2018 Hugo Awards Ceremony is scheduled for Sunday, August 19, 2018
at 8:00 PM North American Pacific Daylight Time (UTC-7) in the McEnery
Convention Center Grand Ballroom in San Jose, California. The ceremony
is open to all attending members of Worldcon 76, with additional seating
available in “Callahan’s Place”
(https://www.worldcon76.org/exhibits/callahans) in the convention center
Exhibit Hall.

The Hugo Awards web site will once again offer text-based coverage of
the Hugo Awards ceremony
(http://www.thehugoawards.org/hugo-history/2018-hugo-awards/2018-hugo-awards-live-coverage/)
via CoverItLive, suitable for people with bandwidth restrictions. For
those with the bandwidth for it, Worldcon 76 San Jose plans to offer
live video streaming of the Hugo Awards ceremony. Details of the
live-streaming coverage will be available at the 2018 Worldcon web site
(https://www.worldcon76.org/).

The Hugo Awards web site coverage team of Kevin Standlee, Susan de
Guardiola, and Cheryl Morgan plan to be “on the air” approximately
fifteen minutes before the ceremony. You can sign up at the CoverItLive
event site
(http://www.thehugoawards.org/hugo-history/2018-hugo-awards/2018-hugo-awards-live-coverage/)
for an e-mail notification before the event starts. Remember that the
CoverItLive text coverage is text-only, and is likely to not be in synch
with the video streaming. Also, the CoverItLive team here at
TheHugoAwards.org is not responsible for the video streaming coverage
and cannot answer any questions about it.
