How to watch Minecraft Live 2026

The first Minecraft Live of 2026 is set for Saturday March 21 at 1 pm ET/12 pm CT/6 pm GMT, and will stream on the official Minecraft YouTube and Twitch channels, as well as at minecraft.net/live. The showcase promises updates on what’s coming to the survival crafting game this year.

A trailer on the official Minecraft YouTube channel offers little concrete detail, teasing “secret stuff” and special guests while briefly showing the new baby mobs arriving with Tiny Takeover, the first update of 2026. That glimpse suggests we might see reveals of the first features for upcoming updates during the event.

Expect the stream to run around half an hour to 40 minutes based on last year’s broadcasts, though the runtime will depend on how much is shown. The full stream will be uploaded to the Minecraft YouTube channel after it ends, so anyone who misses it can catch up and pore over the footage for possible hints about future content.
