UPDATE: The launch has been scrubbed for today (April 10) due to high wind shear in the upper atmosphere. Dang bomb cyclone! It is now (as of this edit) scheduled for tomorrow, April 11, at 6:35 EST. 

SpaceX is launching its Falcon Heavy tonight at 6:35PM as of this posting. Of course, it could go later in the evening or even be scrubbed. At any rate, it appears that the livestream of the event starts around 6:35 on the East Coast. You can see the event here:

Fun fact: Not only will be the first time a Falcon Heavy has launched with a commercial payload (Arabsat-6A), it will also be the first Heavy to use all Bloc 5 boosters.
