If you want to watch the Crunchies tonight, you’re going to have to tune in, as tickets have sold out for the annual awards show co-hosted by GigaOM, Techcrunch, and Venturebeat.
The livestream below should kick off around 7pm, and the event starts at 730pm at Davies Symphony Hall in San Francisco. Most of our San Francisco-based crew will be in attendance, probably just to get a chance to hear comedian John Oliver of Daily Show fame host the show.
A list of nominees follows below.
