Apple TV+ is opening its own FYC activation pop-up this year, taking over Hollywood’s Goya Studios to launch the “Think Apple TV+ FYC” space from May 1 to May 14 that will showcase their top shows. The FTC acronym stands for "For Your Consideration" (Events).

The streamer’s signature Emmy-winning hit “Ted Lasso” will open the space on May 1 with a fan event that includes a series trivia game, followed by a conversation moderated by Yvette Nicole Brown (“Community”). Cast and creative team participating include series star and executive producer Jason Sudeikis, as well as Brendan Hunt, Brett Goldstein, Juno Temple, Phil Dunster, Jeremy Swift, Kola Bokinni, Cristo Fernández, Billy Harris and James Lance. The trivia game, hosted by comedian Ryan Budds, will feature cast members Charlie Hiscock, Stephen Manas and Moe Jeudy-Lamour.

Meanwhile, the two-week “Think Apple TV+” FYC space will wrap on May 14 with a “Schmigadoon!” sing-along. Since it’s Apple, the event will allow attendees to follow the lyrics along with “Schmigadoon!” stars Andrew Singer, Cinco Paul and Jane Krakowski.

Other events include partnerships with Essence and Gold House to discuss representation on shows such as “Ted Lasso,” “Shrinking,” “Mythic Quest,” “For All Mankind,” “City on Fire” and “The Big Door Prize,” among others.
