The Elder Scrolls Online: Morrowind streamed launch party?

Back in 2015, ArenaNet held a launch party at its HQ during the hours leading up to the midnight launch of Guild Wars 2's first expansion Heart of Thorns that it live-streamed on Twitch. The employees there were celebrating in the back as the live-stream's host interviewed various people throughout the night. It was actually pretty fun to watch.
Will Zenimax have a similar launch party at its HQ leading up to a midnight launch of The Elder Scrolls Online's first expansion Morrowind this coming June, replete with a live-stream with various interviews and such?

Bananko✭✭✭✭One of the fun things the host did at the beginning of each interview was to have have both her and her guest have a toast... in this case, actual toast, with the guest's choice of butter, margarine or something similar to Nutella spread on it.

Bananko✭✭✭✭However, are the chances of a launch party for Morrowind hurt by the fact that while the Heart of Thorn launch party occurred during the last hours of a Friday, the Morrowind launch party would occur during the last few hours of a Monday?

General observation: companies that launch a new product on a Friday afternoon are confident in their QA testing, companies that launch a new product on a Monday morning are not. Discuss.

Although Morrowind is actually scheduled to be released on a Tuesday, that still doesn't seem to bode well for it, right?

Bananko✭✭✭✭Question..
Are you hoping/dreaming/assuming Morrowind will be a midnight launch? Or did ya see this somewhere?
I'm hoping/assuming it is too but... not sure..
At this point, I'm hoping/dreaming/assuming a midnight launch.
It's not necessarily a deal-breaker if it isn't, though. I was just curious if there was going to be a festive Twitch live-stream from Zenimax HQ building up to the launch replete with face-to-face interviews, a tour of the HQ, a view of the party there, etc.
It actually could be somewhat easier for TESO players around the country to watch than it was for GW2 players two years ago: ArenaNet is located in Washington state, so their midnight is the East Coast's 3:00am, whereas Maryland-based Zenimax's midnight would be the West Coast's 9:00pm. 0 -
Bananko✭✭✭✭Has there been any word lately on whether the expansion's release will be accompanied by a live Twitch or YouTube (or whatever else) launch party?0
