Apple is here with its first event of 2021. Titled Spring Loaded, the launch event will be held tonight, April 20. The tech giant is expected to unveil a number of products, with the next-generation iPad Pro the likely highlight of the virtual event. While there's still some time before we get to see what the Cupertino company unveils, there is already a palpable excitement on Twitter among Apple users. The hashtag #AppleEvent is gaining momentum and a special custom emoji signifying the event's logo appears every time a user uses this hashtag on the microblogging site. People are sharing pictures and memes using the same hashtag to let the world know about their enthusiasm for the event.

Sharing a picture of his Apple Watch, user @danielbahl tweeted, "I am ready."

Besides the latest iPad Pro models, the company is also likely to bring its new AirPods, Apple TV, and a redesigned iMac. AirTags, that has been around the rumour mill for long, may also finally see a launch at the Tuesday event. The Bluetooth tracker is being billed as Apple's answer to Samsung's Galaxy SmartTag and Galaxy SmartTag+ and the iconic Tile.

The Spring Loaded event will take place at 10 am PDT (10:30 pm IST). The event will be live streamed on the Apple website and social media channels directly through its campus in Cupertino, California, US.
