It's that time of year again: the scent of new Surface devices is in the air. Microsoft will kick off what we're expecting to be a pretty big Surface event on October 2 in New York City. And this year, you'll be able to stream the whole thing from the comfort of your PC, TV, phone, or tablet.

The event is set to start at 10 a.m. ET (find your local time here) on October 2. So far, Microsoft has confirmed that you'll be able to watch the announcements play out at its dedicated event website and on Twitter. You can also sit back and enjoy the stream through the video embed above.

If you want to join in on some fun commentary with the Windows Central staff, we'll also be hosting a viewing party on Mixer. You can also follow all of our coverage at our dedicated Surface event page.

As for what Microsoft has in store, this event looks to be shaping up to be a pretty momentous one. We're expecting to see Surface Book 3, Surface Pro 7, and Surface Laptop 3 all make an appearance among the announcements. However, that's only touching the surface.

We're also expecting to see Microsoft give us at least a look at what it's been cooking up with the rumored "Project Centaurus", which is said to be a dual-screen foldable device between eight and 12 inches. Alongside Centaurus, we may also get a look at the Windows Lite operating system, which is said to be focused on a lighter experience to compete with iPadOS and Chrome OS.
