Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) said on Wednesday that its annual developer conference, known as WWDC, would start on June 5.
The annual confab, which runs until June 9 and will be held at Apple Park, will bring together Apple (AAPL) developers, press and analysts. It is also likely to see the announcement of the company's long-awaited mixed reality headset.

In February, it was reported that Apple (AAPL) had delayed the announcement of the long-awaited device from April to June because of "lingering issues" with the development of the product.
In addition, Apple (AAPL) is expected to show off the latest versions of its iOS, iPadOS, tvOS, watchOS and macOS operating systems.
Apple (AAPL) shares were up nearly 1.5% after the announcement.
On Wednesday, Wedbush Securities said Apple (AAPL) and several other tech companies were likely to benefit from a "modestly better" earnings season.
