First WWDC 2018 Decorations Start Going Up at McEnery Convention Center in San Jose
The 2018 Worldwide Developers Conference is set to kick off in five days, and ahead of the event, Apple has started decorating the McEnery Convention Center in San Jose, California, which is where the conference will take place.
Apple's WWDC 2018 convention center decorations feature the same design as the rest of Apple's WWDC imagery used for the WWDC site, invitations, and app, featuring 3D buttons, toggles, and text on a white background.
Apple has taken over the entire front entrance of the convention center, as it did with
last year's decorations. Additional banners and decorations will be added over the course of the weekend.
Since last year, Apple has been hosting WWDC in San Jose, a departure from the many years where the event was held at Moscone West in San Francisco.
The San Jose location is closer to Apple's campuses and office spaces in Cupertino and the rest of the South Bay, and it is also more affordable for developers due to cheaper hotel options in the area.
Apple's 2018 Worldwide Developers Conference will begin on at 10:00 a.m. Pacific Time on June 4 with a keynote event where Apple is expected to debut new versions of iOS, macOS, tvOS, and watchOS, perhaps alongside a few hardware surprises that could include refreshed Macs and iPads.
We'll have live coverage of the keynote event both here on MacRumors.com and on our MacRumorsLive Twitter account. Make sure to tune in after the keynote too, as we'll have ongoing coverage of Apple's announcements and new software features throughout the week.
