Hello Miners,
In space, there are no vacations. But when you work for a company like Deep Rock Galactic, the work is so fulfilling that you nearly forget you were even wondering why the contract didn’t say anything about time off in the first place.
Speaking of terrific mandatory work events, it’s almost time for the Space Beach Party seasonal event in Deep Rock Galactic! The party starts Thursday, July 31st at 13:00 CEST and runs for two weeks.
Here’s what’s coming:

The hat you have to work for
The best hats must be earned by the sweat of your own brow. Then you can put it on and absorb more brow sweat while you continue working, because that Bismor’s not gonna mine itself.
This Space Beach Party, you can earn the new Swim Instructor hat! Just complete the associated assignment in the Mission Terminal and it’s all yours.
Summery hats from years past
In case you are a new employee at Deep Rock Galactic, or you avoided your work responsibilities last summer, you’ve got old editions of Space Beach Party hats to collect.
Management has gracefully dug up some surplus stock for you to collect. Not for free, of course. Just one work assignment, and all previous Space Beach Party hats will be permanently added to your inventory.
Another pool floaty fiasco
Every other interplanetary courier firm was off on vacation, so the Deep Rock Galactic corporation was once again forced to enlist the services of Longbeard Freight to manage a priceless shipment of inflatable pool toys.
Unfortunately, in what many are already calling “the bummer of the summer,” those bunglers at Longbeard have once again crashed their freighter and lost the entire load of pool floaties throughout the caves of Hoxxes.
We need your help. During each mission, we’ll need you to locate and deposit a lost pool floaty toy. If you can help, Management will reward you and your whole team with a Double Performance Pass Point Bonus.
Sensational Space Rig decorations
Of course, it wouldn’t be a proper Space Beach Party without festive decorations. When the event starts, you’ll find the Space Rig fully decked out with tropical palm leaves, beach inflatables, water balloons and paper luau lanterns. We’ve even created a miniature beach at the Abyss Bar by dumping a mixture of sand and boron on the dance floor! Employees are encouraged to not stand on this mixture for more than 90 seconds.

The 2025 Space Beach Party starts on July 31st at 13:00 CEST. SPF 50+ recommended.
See you soon!
