Google confirms dates for this year’s I/O developer conference

Google I/O 2025 will be held May 20-21, featuring AI and Android updates. The event coincides with Microsoft's Build conference.

Google has officially announced the dates for its annual I/O developer conference, which will take place on May 20 and 21 this year.

A mix of in-person and online events

As in previous years, Google I/O 2025 will combine in-person gatherings with online live streams. The main keynote event will be broadcast live from the Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View, California, near Google’s headquarters.

Developers and tech enthusiasts worldwide can join virtual sessions, watch product announcements, and discuss the latest advancements in Google’s technology. The conference serves as a platform for developers to learn about new tools, software updates, and upcoming features across Google’s ecosystem.

AI and Android updates are expected

This year’s event is expected to focus heavily on artificial intelligence (AI), with Google likely to reveal new AI-powered tools and improvements to existing ones. AI has been at the centre of Google’s innovations, and this conference could showcase its next steps in making AI more integrated into everyday technology.

Additionally, Google is expected to announce updates for Android, including possible new features for Android 15. Another area to watch is Android XR, Google’s latest extended reality (XR) device operating system. XR combines augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR), and Google may reveal more details on how it plans to compete in this emerging market.

A direct clash with Microsoft’s Build conference

One of the more interesting aspects of this year’s I/O is its timing. Google’s event will overlap with Microsoft’s Build conference, scheduled for May 19–22 at the Seattle Convention Center. This means the two tech giants will unveil their latest innovations around the same time, making it an exciting period for developers and technology enthusiasts.

Last year’s Google I/O took place on May 14, 2024, with major announcements about AI and Android advancements. If you missed it, you can check out a full recap of what was revealed in last year’s event.

With Google and Microsoft set to showcase their latest developments in AI and software, May is shaping up to be a key month for the future of technology.
