Harris/Walz will start their bus tour and rally in Pittsburgh this Sunday (my hometown)

However, for the life of me, I cannot find where exactly in Pittsburgh or the times.

I'm sorry to post this here, but I simple cannot find this answer except they are landing in PIT airport Sun and will make several stops in the area, but where??? There is no information I can find. Also, Harris' for Presdient official website doesn't provide this information either. Is there even a rally being held?
Sadly, I see a number publications on where Trump and Vance's rallies will be in this area, but I have no to little information given about Harris campaign except that she starts her bus tour in Pittsburgh.

I know this is nitpicking, but Harris' campaign team needs to make this type of information easier to find.

4. Yes. Specific location and time are often withheld.

It seems that only after the press gets their notice of the details of the VP's schedule for a given day do you start seeing specifics show up online. I've found details like the time, specific location, a link to request an invite, etc., in google searches late the night before or early in morning on the day of an event.

You might try stopping at the campaign office in the morning (can't find a phone number)? Canvasing and other events seem to meet at this address:

2637 E Carson St
Pittsburgh, PA 15203

And they didn’t know either. Cited security and crowd control as impacting on keeping the info on the down low.
Wife heard rumor that there might be a stop in Bloomfield Little Italy fest. But just a Nextdoor rumor.

It might only be a bus tour, stopping at several local businesses who've agreed to host them briefly. So maybe not a rally at a specific location where fans could show up.
