Paramount+ has announced they are celebrating the 55th Anniversary of Star Trek with a bunch of live panels with cast members and people behind the soon to be 11 (!) series of Star Trek. The chosen day should be no surprise since Star Trek: The Original series premiered on September 8, 1966.
Set for Wednesday, September 8 starting at 5:30 PM PT/8:30PM ET, Star Trek Day will be live streamed on StarTrek.com/day with hosts Wil Wheaton and Mica Burton along with a live orchestra composed by Jeff Russo. Safe to assume that part of this event will include looks at upcoming seasons of Star Trek: Discovery, Strange New Worlds, Prodigy, and Picard.
Planned Panels:
- STAR TREK: PRODIGY, with series voice cast including Brett Gray and Dee Bradley Baker, along with executive producers Kevin and Dan Hageman and co-executive producer/director, Ben Hibon.
- STAR TREK: DISCOVERY, with series stars Wilson Cruz, Blu del Barrio and Ian Alexander and co-showrunner and executive producer Michelle Paradise.
- STAR TREK: STRANGE NEW WORLDS, with series stars Anson Mount, Rebecca Romijn and Ethan Peck, who will be joined by co-showrunners and executive producers Akiva Goldsman and Henry Alonso Myers.
- STAR TREK: LOWER DECKS, with voice cast members Noël Wells and Eugene Cordero alongside series creator, showrunner and executive producer Mike McMahan.
- STAR TREK: PICARD, with series stars Patrick Stewart and Jeri Ryan, co-showrunner and executive producer Akiva Goldsman and a special live performance from Isa Briones, singing “Blue Skies,” which was featured in the PICARD season one finale.
- RODDENBERRY LEGACY PANEL, featuring a conversation with Gene Roddenberry’s son and the CEO of Roddenberry Entertainment, Rod Roddenberry, alongside Gates McFadden (Star Trek: The Next Generation), LeVar Burton (Star Trek: The Next Generation) and George Takei (Star Trek: The Original Series), as they discuss the “Star Trek” creator’s indelible impact on science fiction and culture.

- Cirroc Lofton from Star Trek: Deep Space Nine
- Anthony Montgomery from Star Trek: Enterprise
- Garrett Wang from Star Trek: Voyager
- George Takei from Star Trek: The Original Series
