Player presentations: Our shared stories
Day 1 boasted a variety of fantastic presentations. Some of the highlights included EVE for everyone - a discussion on what inclusivity means, an opportunity to share personal stories, and a look at what initiatives are being taken in-game and within the community to make New Eden more welcoming for all pilots.

Drifter Summit YC127
Today’s Drifter Summit took a look back at the Drifters' influence on New Eden and the events that have transpired over the last several months. Convened at the behest of the Sisters of EVE, facilitated by the Arataka Research Consortium, and represented here by Uriel Anteovnuecci and DutchGunner, the summit featured players who’ve made significant contributions to their factions during the Race for the Hives, and who were specially invited to attend this RP-lite narrative event as delegates for their chosen faction.Trade Hub treasures
Diverse and wondrous things were seen in the Fanfest Trade Hub, from glorious EVE inspired original art, to Titan Forge gameplay, and fully costumed capsuleers.
The Art of War for New Eden
Presented by Rixx Javix, one of the EVE Community’s most celebrated artists, we were immersed in the creative journey behind EVE: War for New Eden, with a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at how the upcoming board game evolved from concept to production.
Charity dinner at CCP HQ
Fanfest wouldn’t be complete without an inspiring opportunity to meet, greet, and eat with EVE developers and CCP’s CEO at the Gróska headquarters. Tonight’s dinner featured an evening of low-key networking with the CCP community and an exciting chance for players to engage with developers, ask questions, and exchange ideas. To top it off, proceeds from the dinner went to support Barnaspítali Hringsins, the Children’s Hospital of Iceland.Metal mayhem at day’s end
