The second season of Apple TV+’s original comedy/drama Dickinson will debut this Friday, January 8. Ahead of that debut, Apple will hold a virtual “advance screening” of the new season on January 7 at 5 p.m. PT / 8 p.m. ET. Those interested in joining can apply for tickets on Apple’s website.
As first spotted by Sigmund Judge on Twitter, Apple is inviting people to apply for tickets to the advance screening for the new season of Dickinson:
Apple says that tickets will be allocated on a first-come, first-serve basis, and you must register by January 6 at 6 p.m. PT / 9 p.m. ET. Registration can be completed on Apple’s website and will be closed once capacity of the virtual event is reached.
Join us for an advance screening of the new season of Dickinson, an Apple Original, on January 7 at 5 p.m. PT / 8 p.m. ET. Hailee Steinfeld stars as Emily Dickinson. Poet. Daughter. Total rebel. In this coming-of-age story, Emily’s determined to become the world’s greatest poet.
This is just the first advance screening that we expect Apple to hold over the coming weeks and months as it handles debuts of new content amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Apple would generally hold in-person advance screening for much of this, but the COVID-19 pandemic makes that unfeasible.
Dickinson had completed filming on season two before the end of 2019, so its production wasn’t affected by COVID-19 unlike many other Apple TV+ originals. Likely because of these delays, Apple extended TV+ free year trials through February of 2021.
