Snapchat is planning a mystery announcement tomorrow

Snapchat parent Snap Inc. appears to be planning a mystery announcement for Tuesday, October 3.

We noticed the webpage art.snapchat.com on Monday with a countdown timer that's scheduled to end around the time Snap CEO Evan Spiegel steps onstage for a rare interview at Vanity Fair's New Establishment conference in Los Angeles on Tuesday.

The webpage shows a photo of New York City's Central Park, the timer, and not much else. In response to a question about what the timer was for, a Snap spokesperson told BI via email: "We're excited to share more soon!"
