Austin gigafactory party

[austinEV]

Is this being discussed elsewhere? The date of the party is fast approaching, April 7 I believe. Has anyone gotten invites? I live in Austin and presume I would be top of the list for such invites.

I've been searching and haven't seen anything official yet for the Giga Fest Texas official Texas event.

A Tesla owner's group is putting on a "Tesla Con Texas" event over the same time period, but I don't think that is what you were asking about, and I didn't see anything that made that a must/should attend to me.

When did the Giga Fest Berlin invites go out ?

Apparently there's a 15,000 person limit and locals will be given priority.

I hope the invite extends to Tesla owners in the Houston area....maybe those specifically with FSD Betas...

Gonna be there that weekend for Moto GP at COTA, I'm thinking Superchargers are going to be busy lol

Is there any updates? I am a local, and hoping for an invite.

Yea invites started going out this weekend (either saturday or sunday); seems like it is just to influencers/people that are big on social media, and some of the Austin employees.

The event is being called a Cyber Rodeo.

Everyone is getting +1, so it seems like there will be 7500 invites sent out. Not sure if that will translate to any 'regular' people getting an invite.

One of the first Model S owners in Austin (2013), and a Model 3 for myself and a Model Y for my wife since then. No invite.

Yeah it's pretty established at this point it's just press/influencers/higher up employees/and immediate surrounding neighborhoods getting invites. They are all +1's so there's only 7,500 of them. Disappointing. I wish there was at least a raffle for registered VINs in Texas.

I had a mobile service tech at my house today and said the service center workers requested to go, but hasn’t got an update. Even internally, it is very select people and secretive how these invites are going out.

Yes, I'm interested in going and work in Kyle. Any info on getting a ticket?

Let literally hundreds of people test drive my Tesla. Converted quite a few to buyers. TSLA long shareholder. Three vehicles and solar ordered.

Oh, and I know how to hold a camera steady in landscape orientation; know better than to just scream at it while taking selfies and making peace signs. ....

No invite either.

At least there is Sandy Munro for the minority who aren't immature tesla-bro's who's Twitter followers aren't there just to gawk at them breaking things.

Anyone else end up making it in? Saw a lot of people without invites get turned away at the gates, and when we left ~11pm, was surprised to see so many cars parked on the highway.

I got an invite, not sure how. I have done work for Tesla and have contacts, but I did not ask for an invite. I think randomly lucky. I enjoyed it, was fun and much looser than the other parties I've attended in Fremont, Hawthorne and Sparks.
