The ATX Television Festival will once again be an in-person event in 2021, following two years of instead holding a virtual festival. The event, affectionally known as “TV Camp” will take place from June 2nd-June 5th this year in Austin, Texas.

The festival announced its first wave of programming today for this year’s event (Season 11), which includes a reunion for the beloved family drama Parenthood. The much-anticipated reunion was originally planned for 2020, but it was postponed due to the pandemic.
