Apple notifies developers invited to WWDC 2025 event

Apple last week officially announced that WWDC 2025 will take place from June 9 to 13, and although most of the event will take place online, the company will hold an in-person opening keynote at Apple Park. Developers who have applied for a ticket are now being notified of their status.

“Congratulations! You’ve been selected to join us at the special event at Apple Park on Monday, June 9 – and we’re thrilled to invite you to additional activities before and after as well,” Apple says in an email to invited developers.

The special WWDC 2025 event includes the opening keynote, in which the company will announce iOS 19 and its other new software, and the Platforms State of the Union. Invited developers will also be able to meet with Apple experts.

According to Apple, the invited developers were chosen “by random selection” and the ticket is not transferable. Although the winners don’t have to pay anything for the ticket, all travel and accommodation costs must be covered by the person.

In addition, Apple also invited “distinguished winners” of the Swift Student Challenge 2025 to a three-day experience in Cupertino that also includes the special event at Apple Park.
