@ChasingCoral bummer you can't go.
Do you know any specifics about the event? Is it inside the plant? What exactly are they planning to talk about?

Here's the official press release from Ford about the Lightning Launch.
DEARBORN, Mich., April 14, 2022 – The countdown is on. April 26 marks the launch of the all-new, all-electric F-150® Lightning™ pickup.
Ford and UAW leaders will host customers and employees to celebrate the start of F-150 Lightning production at the Rouge Electric Vehicle Center in Dearborn, Michigan. Ford employees and F-150 Lightning customers will join the “Job 1” event for the first-ever full-size all-electric pickup to go on sale, a milestone moment in the country’s shift to electric vehicles.
Ford F-Series pickup has been America’s best-selling truck for 45 years in a row1 and is second only to the iPhone in revenue among all American consumer products, according to a 2020 study. The Rouge Electric Vehicle Center is an ultra-modern new facility within Ford’s historic Rouge Complex where Henry Ford perfected the moving assembly line and scaled the Model T.
The event begins April 26, 1:30 p.m. eastern and will be livestreamed at http://ford.to/LightningStrikes.

I gotta make a cool garage poster out of that
But...... the garage belongs to the Vette! 😎
Do you have any reference to a 9pm event? This event is the only one I've seen - I believe 1:30 PM Eastern on the 26th.
