On September 8, 2022, Mojang released a trailer video for Minecraft Live 2022. It was a fun-filled video in which the event's start date and time were revealed.

Minecraft Live 2022 will start on October 15, 2022, at noon EDT. The event usually lasts about two hours, so it will probably end around 2:00 pm EDT. The previous live event in 2021 went on for two hours and 15 minutes.

The first half an hour of the show will have community-driven content, followed by the main show.

Since this year's live event will be held virtually, players and fans can only watch it virtually. Minecraft Live 2022 will stream on their official website, Facebook, YouTube, and Twitch like the previous year. Mojang usually streams on all platforms to have the most eyeballs on the event.

Apart from official streams, hundreds of famous content creators will also stream the event if they have the rights and permission from Mojang. This is a great way to watch the live event since fans will get live reactions from their favorite content creators on the newest features showcased by Mojang.

Players can participate in mob voting via a particular server on Bedrock Edition, the official launcher, or the official website. The mob vote will open on October 14 at noon EDT and close in 24 hours, just before the main event.

Later on, the winner of the mob vote will be revealed during the main live show.
