Tickets for this event were advertised to be available as of October 17 and after logging in today October 16th, they are sold out through December 15. Frustrating. My opportunity isn’t until Oct 23rd. Is it at midnight on October 23 or not until later (like 5:00 am) ? I’m concerned about timing so I have a chance of securing a reservation.
