It's the best time of the year — no, it's not Christmas — it's almost Star Trek Day! Every year on September 8, Star Trek fans celebrate the long-running franchise in honor of the inaugural episode hitting television for the first time in 1966. And this year, you can give back during the event. This weekend, the franchise is launching the "Take the Chair, Make an Impact" campaign to foster the brighter, optimistic version of the future that we see in the series.
The fun doesn't stop there through! Lucky fans in Chicago, Illinois, Berlin, Germany, and Vancouver, Canada will have the chance to celebrate Star Trek Day at in-person pop-up events. Taste of Chicago will feature the U.S.S. Enterprise Captain's chair all weekend, while the activations at ALEXA Mall in Berlin and the Richmond Centre in Vancouver will feature "a modern architectural interpretation of the captain's chair crafted from sustainable materials.
While we count down the hours to Star Trek Day, you can revisit your favorite episodes on Paramount+.
