NFUpfront

The NFUpfront was an upfront concerning NF, AuraNightfall, NFGo!, and other NF-related properties. The first event, NFUpfront 2021, took place on November 5th, 2021. All NFUpfront events were livestreamed on Flare+ due to the lack of timeslots on the Nickelodeon Family channel space itself to air the upfront.

Format
According to Aura, the main NFUpfront would be livestreamed on Flare+ on the first Friday of November and feature announcements from the NF channel space, including blocks such as AuraNightfall and NFGo!. NFUpfront Day Two would then be streamed the Saturday following the event and feature announcements that were saved from the main NFUpfront event. An NFUpfront Semi, the first of which would take place in February 2022, would feature updates on projects announced at previous NFUpfront events.

It was later clarified that two main NFUpfront events would be held: one for the first Friday of June, and one for the first Friday of November, titled NFUpfront Summer and NFUpfront respectively. While NFUpfront Day Two would be streamed for both events, no NFUpfront Semi event would take place following the NFUpfront Summer event.

On September 2nd, 2022, Aura cancelled the November NFUpfront event for 2022, due to a lack of non-anime shows being announced as well as the network's original anime presence at Anime Expo Ontario 2022.

On January 10th, 2023, following a series of cutbacks over at Aura, all future NFUpfront events were cancelled. Previous events were also removed from streaming on Flare+, as NFUpfront was written-off as a loss on Aura's taxes.
