Comet TV, the free television network for fans of sci-fi and fantasy entertainment, has announced the return of the Comet Fest fan festival in 2024. The on-air and digital event will return in the Summer of 2024 with a focus on artificial intelligence, anchored by many of the top AI, android and humanoid-themed franchises in history including Terminator, Westworld and RoboCop. The 2024 event is being called “Comet Fest 2024: The Future of AI is Here.”

Comet will televise movies and series throughout the multi-day event, including the network premieres of James Cameron’s Terminator 2: Judgement Day with Arnold Schwarzenegger and Westworld from sci-fi legend Michael Crichton. Additional films and series include Steven Spielberg’s A.I. Artificial Intelligence with Jude Law and Haley Joel Osment, as well as the Cyberpunk cult-classic limited series RoboCop. Additional programming, interviews, appearances, and interactive digital experiences will be announced.

The dates we have, June 15-17, 2024 are tentative and subject to change. We’ll update them as more announcements regarding “Comet Fest 2024: The Future of AI is Here” are made.
