In brief, here is what we know about the Solstice 2022 event in Destiny 2:

There is going to be an Event Card, which is an item aimed t helping players to organize objectives, showcase missions, challenges, Seals and titles, and even upgrade some of its aspects. Keeping track of this item will be key if you want to unlock some of the cosmetic rewards available
Armor upgrading will be different as well, involving items called Silver Leaves, Silver Ash, and Kindling — the latter used to permanently upgrade your Solstice armor stat roll potential
Usual event activities that are yet to be disclosed
