Looking for a reason to trade the couch for the coast this June? The Newport Beach TV Fest returns June 4-7 at the historic Lido Theater with four days of conversations, live podcasts, award presentations, and appearances from some of television’s biggest names.
Open to the public, the festival is expected to draw one of the largest gatherings of Guild and Television Academy voters outside Los Angeles and New York, giving Orange County audiences a rare chance to see stars up close in an intimate setting.
Highlights include Mindy Kaling and Seth MacFarlane appearing for live Awards Chatter podcasts, Andy Cohen receiving Variety’s Creative Impact in Television Award, and ensemble panels featuring casts from “Landman” and “Shrinking.” Sebastian Maniscalco will also be honored with the Comedy Special of the Year Award for his Hulu special “It Ain’t Right.”
Beyond the festival, Newport Beach offers the perfect backdrop for a weekend escape with waterfront dining, coastal resorts, aquatic adventures, and 10 miles of beaches.
Tickets and the full schedule are at nbtvfest.com.
