       Apple Announces Unusual Multi-City "Apple Experience" for March 4

   Adam Engst

   Apple has sent invitations to select media outlets (but not TidBITS) to
   announce a 'special Apple Experience' in New York, London, and Shanghai
   on 4 March 2026.

   The invitation provides no hints about what attendees might experience.
   It's perhaps notable that Apple used 'experience' rather than 'event,'
   suggesting something smaller than a full livestreamed keynote. The
   multi-city format would let Apple provide hands-on time for more
   journalists than typically fly to Cupertino.

   Speculation centers on the rumored low-cost MacBook (the invitation's
   colors align with claims of a colorful design), the iPhone 17e, and
   MacBook Pro upgrades with M5 Pro and M5 Max chips. Others have
   suggested that an updated iPad Air and new Apple TV are also
   possibilities.

   Personally, I don't plan to waste any more brain space on this teaser.
   The event will happen soon enough, and we'll cover it then.
