Tesla's (NASDAQ:TSLA) head of investor relations, Martin Viecha, confirmed in a tweet Friday that the company will be holding a special event on December 1st to mark the first Tesla Semi deliveries. The tweet mentions that shareholders can enter a drawing through the new Tesla Shareholder Platform where one share is equal to one entry.
"If you want to attend the Semi delivery event as a retail shareholder, please make sure you have a verified shareholder status on our IR website (unverified manual submissions are eligible if the paperwork is correct). We'll be doing a random draw where 1 share = 1 entry." — Martin Viecha
His tweet included Tesla's tweet from July announcing the launching of its Shareholder Platform. The platform allows shareholders to participate in events and access exclusive features. Tesla shareholders can confirm their status through Say, a third-party platform that Tesla uses to allow investors to submit questions for earnings calls.
As is usually the case for Tesla delivery events, the automaker is expected to not only hand over the first vehicles to customers, but it should also hold a presentation about the vehicle program.
Shares of TSLA are down 2.19% near mid-day trading on Monday.
