Do we know when exactly Destiny 2 will be released? Are we talking midnight Pacific Daylight Time? Midnight UTC? Wednesday 10am PDT? Midnight your local time?
I've looked around and haven't found anything more specific than "September 6th".
Who knows?!

Got my pre-order receipt from Microsoft yesterday and it says 9/5. So I have no idea.

My receipt (received in March) says "Available September 8th".
If I click 'Go to order details', and log into my MS billing account, it says what Beorn posted (September 5). I'm guessing that's for pre-loading, though.

Ok, when I go to order details it says releases on 9/5. I already have it preloaded, so I assume that is when the servers open up.
I was planning on taking off work, but my corporate bosses decided to visit next week. The best I'll get is maybe a half day on Friday. On the plus side, my wife and kids are going out of town next Friday, so I can binge over the weekend. Time to start stocking up on pop tarts and Rockstar.

I've seen elsewhere that it's a server-killing unified launch, so if you're on the west coast, it will launch Sept. 5, at 9pm PST, as Zero said.

If it is like Destiny, then the servers are active the moment it is September 6th somewhere in the world.

A guy at Gamestop told me that they no longer have midnight launch parties. They start selling the new title when they "close" at 9 p.m. EDT the night before release day. I don't know if this is true. If it is, I think the thinking is with online requirements and day-one updates the three hours don't really matter.

Were midnight launch events a thing before Halo 2? I don't ever remember hearing of these for games or movies before H2. Now that we have digital download, will they ever be a thing again?

Looks like someone didn't line up for the midnight showing of Phantom Menace in 1999, only to go home at 3am questioning the fairness of life.
Yippie!! LOL.

Quoting Episode I Annie is totally a ban-worthy offense, right?

Your mother's an Annie.
