During CES 2025, NVIDIA spent much of its keynote touting its leading position in artificial intelligence. Still, the company managed to squeeze in a few notable hardware announcements, including its RTX 5000-series GPUs and Project Digits desktop supercomputer (later redubbed Spark). For this year’s show, the company’s website says it’s “lighting up CES 2026 with the power of AI.” To that end, NVIDIA is going big in Las Vegas, promising hands-on demos in its Fontainebleau booth, replete with the “latest NVIDIA solutions driving innovation and productivity across industries.”
But if you won’t be in Vegas for the action, don’t worry. Here’s how you can watch the livestream of the company’s January 5 press conference, and what NVIDIA is expected to unveil at CES this year.
How to watch the NVIDIA CES 2026 keynote
NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang will deliver a 90-minute keynote at CES 2026. The event will be livestreamed on Monday, January 5 at 4PM ET via NVIDIA’s website (and likely on YouTube as well). We’ll embed the link here once it’s available.
What to expect
NVIDIA’s game plan for CES is suitably vague so far, including “cutting-edge AI, robotics, simulation, gaming and content creation at the NVIDIA Showcase.” It also notes there will be more than 20 demos. Although we’re unsure if all of these will be shown during the keynote, we can at least expect to see them throughout the week of CES.
NVIDIA arrives at CES as the most valuable publicly traded company in the world (a stunning $4.6 trillion at the time of this writing, albeit down from an even higher valuation earlier in 2025). And given that the health of the US and global economy seems increasingly linked to infrastructure spending on AI data centers — largely powered by chips from NVIDIA and its competitors — expect Huang’s remarks to be as closely followed by Wall Street investors as technology acolytes, if not more so. Will we get any insight on a successor to the company’s Blackwell chip? A more detailed look at how NVIDIA’s partners are applying AI to real-world robotics? Time will tell, but you might want to keep your stock portfolio in a split screen while taking in Huang’s presentation.
