Google I / O 2025 will take place on May 20 and May 21, but the main event is Google Keynote, which starts at 1 p.m.
Keynote is likely to be about two hours long based on previous form and you will be able to live stream it from Google I/O -Websted and also on the Google YouTube channel.
We have embedded the YouTube video below so you can watch it without leaving this page even if you want – and if you click the ‘Notify me’ button on the video, you can get a review when the event is about to start.

A feature I expect Google to talk more about today is AI mode. Techradar -author Eric Hal Schwartz has tried Google’s AI mode and says it might be the end of the search as we know it.
In his feature of the user experience he says, “There is always a lot of happening in my area, but finding information about what is happening can often be tough. Instead of checking six different sites and hoping they have been updated, I asked Google through AI mode: “What’s going on some local events in Hudson Valley this weekend?”
As you can see above, AI responded almost instantly with a tidy context of events. The list of links to the right showed where it pulled off and each event had a short description and details of location and time, as well as a hyperlink to where the information came from. The diversity of sources stands out and I can’t deny it was faster than a regular search plus time spent opening each place to see what was being erected. “
Think of AI mode like Google’s acquisition of Chatgpt -Search, even if we are ready to fully embrace AI search yet? I’m not that sure.
On Google’s official website for the event, it says, “Discover how we promote our mission to organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible and useful.”
This makes me think that we will see some great improvements to Google search, and maybe even a wider roll-out of AI mode.
AI mode launched in Beta earlier this year and brought artificial intelligence at the forefront of the Google search experience. Whether you love it or hate it, AI looks like it’s here to stay and Google Gemini is likely to play a role.
Google I / O 2025 starts at about 9 hours, at. 10 PT / 1 PM ET / 18 PM BST. It gives us plenty of time to take you through everything we expect to look at Google’s headline.
There will be plenty of AI, maybe some Android, and definitely some surprises, so you won’t miss out on what the tech giant has up the sleeve.
