We want you to be in the room where it happens.

Fortune‘s annual Most Powerful Women Summit—now in its 18th year—kicks off on Monday, Oct. 17. While the invite-only confab is sold out, you can still catch all the action on our livestream starting Monday at 8:40 pm Pacific.

Tune in to watch all of our main-stage interviews, beginning with Apple (AAPL) retail and online stores SVP Angela Ahrendts and continuing through the closing speaker, Trump Organization EVP Ivanka Trump, who appears Wednesday at 10:50 am. Along the way, there will be conversations between Facebook (FB) COO Sheryl Sandberg and Chan Zuckerberg Initiative co-founder Priscilla Chan, Brandeis University professor Anita Hill and talk show host Chelsea Handler, and YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki and YouTube star Grace Helbig.

Other highlights from the three-day event include interviews with Fabletics co-founder Kate Hudson, Women’s Heart Alliance co-founder Barbra Streisand, and U.S. CTO Megan Smith.
