GigaFest Austin, April 1,... make that April 7, whats happening.

[byeLT4]

So for all of us who can't go... Is there a preferred livestream?

What the **** is the point of the social "influencers" who are going posting constantly about it? Yes, we know, you are going, and those who actually live in that state are not. It's a damn slap in the face.

On the off chance anyone has a last minute cancellation and needs a +1, I am available as my potential ticket fell through.

I’ll not only compensate you well, but will chauffeur you there in my MX Plaid if you like.

Shot in the dark, but I’m in Austin, so why not?

One thing I won't miss not being there is half the crowd with their big vlogging cameras, selfie-sticks, and boom microphones talking to themselves narrating every second of the event.

Will be in Austin but didn’t get ticket. Guess will have to watch livestream. Hoping to be able at least see the factory.

Why does anybody care. I am buying a car , more importantly I would like to know battery spec! Just get the place running asap with some good quality control.

Tesla throws *great* parties.

I have the same question, I am not going and I am curious to see..... link?

 

[HankLloydRight]

It’s too late for me to get there, but maybe you locals might have a chance? Good luck!

Can anyone that managed to get an invite tell me if there’s a list of prohibited items? I’d like to bring my camera to take photos, but I wanna make sure they’re not banning them.

 

[AlbertVanK]

I apologize if this has been shared before.
For those wanting the link to the live stream of Elon speech, it will happen at 9 pm CT and you can follow it here at the link below, official YouTube channel.

• Any and all professional audio/video recording equipment

Yeah, I'd like to see this one enforced. Half the crowd is going to have this equipment.
I guess it depends on how you define "professional".

This is an excellent 48 minute livestream walkthrough of the event space and factory tour taken immediately after the first people were allowed in.

Appreciate it. Ended up not mattering. Travis county sheriffs escorted us off the property. We were just standing by the road looking at the gigafactory.

I'm watching the Now you Know youtube channel -- they're doing a live cast, but from their studio, not Giga.

It's pretty good because they're consolidating pics and short videos as people post them online.
They're the only channel (right now) going live.
I doubt all the youtubers on the ground are going to be able to get a live stream out since the reception is so poor.

Yep, reception is bad and for me the content was a snooze rodeo.

Yup.but it's better than nothing and really the only thing available right now.

Looks like they want to call it Giga Texas not Giga Austin.
