Description
On June 13 2022 Gaia Data Release 3 will be made public. This release will feature a major increase in the availability of astrophysical information on sources throughout the Milky Way, including stellar parameters and abundances (some 500 million sources), spectra for some 220 million sources, and parameters of variable and binary stars, among many other new data products. I will provide a preview of the release, highighting the contributions from Dutch and Belgian institutes, and provide pointers on how to prepare for the release itself.
