Later this June, Netflix will introduce its very own virtual event called “Geeked Week,” a Comic-Con style convention. An announcement from the OTT platform revealed that the fan event would feature never-before-seen content such as new trailers, live artwork, news coverage, and more.

Netflix’s virtual fan event will take place over five days and will be “free,” unlike its paid streaming subscription. Aside from its exclusive content reveal, “Geeked Week” will also have star appearances from some fan-favorite Netflix original series.

Though Netflix’s theme for the event is on the lines of Comic-Con, it’s reported that the streaming platform has modeled it based on Disney’s D23 expo.

An official statement released by Netflix says the following:

“Over the years, Netflix has been lucky enough to inspire loyal followings for series and films like Stranger Things, Castlevania, The Old Guard, and many more. But these fandoms aren’t just about making GIFs, buying merch, or theorizing about the next big twist(s). They’re about sharing excitement and connecting with people from all over the world who hold the same passion for those characters and stories. Netflix Geeked, Netflix’s home for all things genre entertainment, wants to celebrate these communities and bring them together. That’s why we’re launching Geeked Week.”
