Because the event is being held in Japanese local time, if you look at a schedule for the event, you might need to do some time conversions to figure out exactly when events are taking place.

While the event begins on Thursday, Sept. 30 at 10am in Japan, that will be 8pm CT on Wednesday, Sept. 29 for American viewers.

For American viewers, the show will start at 8pm CT on Thursday, Sept. 30 and Saturday, Oct. 2 as well. On Friday, Oct. 1, it will begin at 7pm CT.

The show will run throughout the night with each day of programming concluding around 9am to 10am CT.
