When it was canceled, convention organizer ReedPOP announced that the event would move online. ViacomCBS has revealed that the Star Trek Universe will be part of the event’s Metaverse on Thursday, October 8th, beginning at 12 pm ET. Panels will feature the cast and crew from Star Trek: Lower Decks, Star Trek: Discovery, along with some surprise guests.

All panels will stream on the NYCC YouTube channel.
