Everything you need to know about the 2018 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show

The highly anticipated show is making its return to New York City with models like Kendall Jenner, Gigi Hadid, and Behati Prinsloo hitting the runway.

The Victoria's Secret Fashion Show is always one of the most highly anticipated fashion events of the year.

This year's show is less than a month away and the brand has been fairly tight-lipped about what to expect. However, what has been revealed suggests that this is going to be just as grand as previous shows.

Last year's show was highly eventful, with model Ming Xi taking a graceful tumble while others like Kendall Jenner had to skip the runway altogether.

As the Victoria's Secret Angels and models prepare to strut their wings down the runway once again, here's everything you need to know about the 2018 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show so far.

The show will make it's grand return to New York City on November 8.

This is the first time the show has returned to New York City since 2015, after spending 2016 in Paris, France, and 2017 in Shanghai, China.

Though it takes place on November 8, the show won't air until December 2 on ABC.

It airs at 10 p.m. EST and has been officially titled the "Victoria's Secret Fashion Show Holiday Special." This is the first time ABC has aired the show since 2001, with CBS airing it in the years following.
