Paramount is celebrating Star Trek Day in style by giving Trekkers all over the U.S. free access to just about every Trek premiere between Sept. 7-13, 2024! Old fans will have the opportunity to re-experience their favorite moments, and anyone thinking about diving into the iconic sci-fi series can take advantage of this incredible opportunity to get acquainted with the franchise. The event will span multiple streaming outlets, and make this Star Trek Day another memorable event for all Trekkers out there.
In addition, Paramount is recognizing charitable causes and interactive opportunities alike. The production company has partnered with organizations like DoSomething.org to encourage Trekkers to engage with their community. They’ve also partnered with Code.org in the ongoing campaign to diversify the STEM field.
Star Trek lovers get to dive back into the premiere episodes that drew them into their favorite shows the first time around. Better yet, this unique opportunity gives secondary characters a chance to shine in ways they might not have received before. Deanna Troi (Marina Sertis), for example, might finally receive the appreciation she’s always deserved.
Keen-eyed fans have already noticed that the series premiere of Prodigy won’t be included in this experience. Still, Netflix’s revival of the animated series means that accessing Season 1, Episodes 1 & 2, “Lost and Found I & II” will be given a different look for Star Trek Day. Fans will just have to get a little creative in making sure they have the full Trekker experience.

Lucky Star Trek fans looking for an interactive pop-up experience can find one at the ALEXA Mall in Berlin, Germany, the Richmond Centre in Vancouver, B.C., or at The Taste of Chicago which will “[feature] a replica of the USS Enterprise’s iconic captain’s chair.” Meanwhile, Berlin and Vancouver will offer fans a chance to interact with a “modern architectural interpretation of the captain’s chair crafted from sustainable materials.”
If it’s not enough to have Star Trek fans rushing to the nearest transporter, all these pop-up experiences offer fans a chance to take photos on the captain’s chair, receive “a personalized mission”, and go home with a “limited edition enamel pin”.
Locking in on a target in classic Star Trek lore usually demands phasers, talented Starfleet officers, and a dedicated captain. To celebrate Star Trek Day, however, fans simply need access one of the several platforms hosting the free classic episodes.
