Some time ago, official community events for Minecraft were announced: amazing mini-agreements, meetups, and parties organized by partners from the Minecraft community! This could be a fantastic opportunity for you to make new friends who share your passion for the game, snap selfies with top video creators, connect with map makers, compete, collaborate, and generally have an incredible time—all without the need to purchase an expensive ticket to another continent! Why? Because the idea is that these events will take place worldwide, hopefully just around the corner from you.
This is just the beginning, and we anticipate that the list will rapidly expand in the coming weeks, months, and years until every corner of the globe is filled with Minecraft fun. In the meantime, we present to you a list of amazing partners from the Minecraft community and where you can find their events!
Onward to the events!
