Apple is ready to show the world the next iPhone — and maybe a little something more.

At an event in Cupertino, California on September 9, the technology giant will lift the lid on what is expected to be one of the most anticipated smartphones of the year.

In fitting with previous years, the company will stream the event live, featuring Apple chief executive Tim Cook, and other senior executives.

Apple will offer the video stream of the keynote at 10 am PT (1 pm, New York; 6 pm, London).

If you are around to watch the hour-long keynote, viewers must watch the stream online with Safari 5.1.10 or later on OS X 10.6.8 or later; Safari on iOS 6 or later. If you're watching through Apple TV, it requires the second- or third-generation set-top box with software 5.0.2 or later.

Viewers can also watch the Apple event live online from supported devices.
