Team Engadget has descended upon Las Vegas to cover CES -- and we've just put the finishing touches on our booth in the middle of the Las Vegas Convention Center. This is the sixth consecutive year that we've got a stage at the show and, as ever, we have a packed program, with all-day coverage live-streamed straight to our homepage for the first three days of the event. Tune in starting tomorrow at 10AM Pacific for our daily morning show and stick with us until 5PM each day, when we'll finish off the day by tackling some racier topics in our After Hours segment. In between, expect lots of interviews about everything from self-driving cars to the smart home to wearables and personal computing with execs from some of the tech industry's biggest players.

Along the way, we'll also have fun in the form of some live gameplay and a good old-fashioned gameshow. (Yes, we brought prizes.) Finishing it all off, we'll be presenting the official Best of CES Awards on Thursday at 5PM Pacific. Stay tuned on our CES homepage right here, and don't worry: If you miss a beat, almost all of these segments will be available to watch later. Buckle in -- it's going to be a busy three days!
