That is the plan. The e-mail was ATL, Seattle, and SF...I assume it will be by the end of the year.
In the original e-mail, Rivian says, "...We're heading to Atlanta, Seattle, and San Francisco next. More details to follow, including dates and how to RSVP. Can't make it? We have exciting things in store for 2020. Stay tuned to hear about future events."
That underlined italicized portion leads me to believe that all three of those events were planned for 2019. Obviously ATL and Seattle have already happened. Here's to hoping that San Fran happens soon. I know my wife is chomping at the bit to go to SF even if it is by herself.
...This deployment needs to hurry up and end already.
Thanks @davrow_R1T for checking. I didn't locate any official announcement either.
FWIW, I consider an official announcement to either be directly from Rivian (e.g. email, website, social media, interviews, etc.) or credible news/media sources. Forum posts as we all know can contain a lot of conjecture. In my own way to not add to that conjecture I try to only consider a forum post on Rivian announcements credible if it cites a credible source.

Just received an email from Rivian. The San Francisco event has been officially moved to 2020. The date is January 25 and 26th. The even is free to the public and will feature the R1T and R1S. The email indicated more information on the exact location and how to RSVP will come later.

Went Saturday, Well attended. Both S and T roped off but doors open. They were preproduction(door handles not final design,,,etc) but build looks good, Lots of staff to answer questions but most info still not released. (no AM radio for the rest of you fellow sports geeks,,] The president(RC) and fam there and talked with all interested individuals. I guess he told press prices may soften slightly. Was fun.

I've been trying to find information on the R1S and R1T will use regenerative braking but I haven't found much aside from the fact that they will have regen braking. Based on some of the other EVs that are on the market, there's a couple of ways that Rivian can approach regen braking.

There was a news report last week that Rivian says it will be locating its Customer Engagement Center at its Normal campus. So there seems to be a healthy expectation of customers. But if production is delayed too long people will take their money elsewhere when they tire of waiting. To keep...
