- Finland: Fanfest HOME, Kaimonsaari – August 23

- USA: EVE Vegas, Las Vegas – October 25-27
EVE Vegas has been the official tentpole event for EVE fans in Las Vegas for years, hence needs no introduction. Over one thousand EVE players descend on the city of sin for a few days every year to discuss important spaceship business and party. It breaks attendance records every time and in 2019 it aims to be bigger and crazier than ever.
- UK: EVE London, Indigo at the 02 Arena – November 23
Held at the world-famous O2 Arena, EVE London brings the classic pub-meet of legend into 2019 and puts it into overdrive. Expect a performance by Permaband and one huge party to cap off an amazing year of EVE Online.
“We’ve been asking you to come and visit us in Iceland for years now, so it’s time we go and visit you both as part of some player-led events as well as some brand new ones,” said Sveinn Jóhannesson Kjarval (aka CCP Guard), Senior Community Development Lead at CCP Games. “As promised at Fanfest 2018 and EVE Vegas 2018, we’re turning our Fanfest efforts up to eleven by packing our backpacks full of exciting updates, keynotes, exclusive content, PvP tournaments with a sprinkle of Permaband and taking all of this (and more!) closer to our community. So close, that with Fanfest Home, we’re actually going to hold a Fanfest at the home of one of our players.”
The EVE World Tour will be making its way across the globe in 2019, so reserve the date and book off vacation days in advance! For more information on EVE World Tour, visit the official blog: http://bit.ly/EVEWorldTour2019
