Iceland Beckons... Are You Brave Enough to Heed the Call?
Fanfest returns to the epic Laugardalsh÷ll Convention Center, October 1 - 3. Last year flights to Iceland sold out so book your flight and Fanfest ticket as soon as possible. Browse around our new Fanfest site and check out some of the latest information regarding travel, events, promotions and what's in store for our guests at the Sixth Annual EVE Fanfest and Party at the Top of the World.
Going to Fanfest will never be as cost effective as 2009!
Due to the financial crisis we locals call ôKreppa,ô the Icelandic currency (ISK) works in your favor. Your money goes farther, buys more and keeps you partying all weekend even on the most frugal of budgets. This might be your only chance to experience Fanfest in all it's glory in exotic Iceland for less money and like never before!
Weæll see you soonÖ in Reykjavik. Fly safe!

Indeed.
This is only my third time, 2007 was the first time I could afford to go (ain't student life grand?). Yet, ever since I got a taste of the awesomeness that is Fanfest I've had this feeling that I shouldn't have let poverty stop me...
Wait, that kinda contradicts the "nuff said -> indeed" part, doesn't it? Oh well...

I can see a lot of players are coming year after year to Fanfest and some, like LuCiD, have attended all six of them! Yes, Fanfest is just that amazing!
For those dedicated attendees and everyone else for that matter we have some new and exciting content this year:
- We have an extensive Caldari theme for Fanfest this year based on the decisions of Fanfest 2008 Live Agent Missions winners.
- PvP TournamentS!: Yes, you heard me! Tournaments in plural! Aside from the all new pimped up EVE¦ Tech3 PvP Tournament we are hosting a free for all, Royal Rumble, on Thursday to get an explosive start to Fanfest! Pre-registrations are open!
- We are planning on an all new event that takes place on the Friday night, Pub Crawl with a Dev. Imagine hundreds of EVE players invading the Reykjavfk nightlife with their Dev in tow!
- Experience Iceland: We want people to see what Iceland is all about and where the inspiration for many of us comes from.
- And as always we expand Fanfest every year to have more of everything and this year is no exception. Tranquility (main presentation area) will feature impressive video and sound and moves to a larger area. The Party at the Top of the World gets yet another face lift to rock your world even more and last but not least, Fanfest attendees will be the first ones to know about the Future of EVE which is shining brighter than ever.
I look forward to seeing you all at Fanfest 2009!

When are we going to get the schedule, oh dear Tyr?
I'm looking forward to seeing if we will get a CSM roundtable and Q&A session again. I'd like to see that really badly.

I believe I saw some kind of insight thread related to Fanfest, but I think it's a goner.
Can anyone shed some light on the Fanfest package from Icelandair? It states flight and hotel, but I don't get much info about the hotel being taken care of or not. I ordered and got the confirmation for flight, but nothing related to the hotel. Do I have to book it myself?

I wondered the same thing last year, bought the package but heard nothing from the hotel (Nordica in my case), and I haven't heard anything this year either.
Don't worry, they have your room reservation. So just relax, check in and be merry.
edit: on second thought, the bolded part got me thinking. When booking I got two emails from Icelandair, one with the e-ticket and one booking confirmation. The latter clearly stated, among other things, what hotel I'd be staying at and so on. If you haven't got that then there might be reason to worry, but if it does have info about the hotel then everything's fine.

Thanks alot, Defiler! :) The booking confirmation does state what hotel I'm staying at, although I thought there was more to it. Looking forward to the first trip :D

We have planned to host a CSM panel and QA will host one or more roundtables and possibly some other new events.
We will release the schedule as soon as possible but as you all might know by now, CCP Hellmar will reveal stuff at GDC Europe that might affect our EVE Online Fanfest 2009 content.

Edited by: Hoshi on 19/08/2009 20:06:35 The card looks interesting, especially since I am going to stay for a week to see the sights but I sort of fail to see the usefulness of getting 2 cards (which I assume the offer means, it's not very clear).
Yes I will be traveling with someone but we will also be visiting the sites together which means 1 card should be more than enough. Or am I missing something here? ---------------------------------------- A Guide to Scan Probing in Revelations |

This would be my first fanfest, but I'm unable to find any sort of schedule of events/seminars/roundtables.
From what I can gather, there is a pubcrawl on Thursday, a party on Saturday and a PvP party. From this thread I see that there will be video screens in the main hall displaying cool videos and there may be information on the future of EVE distributed.
Being a month out (and post-GDC), I would think there would at least be some kind of outline of a schedule with a 'subject to change' note.
I would really like to attend if it's going to be worthwhile, but for $1500, I can drink beer and watch cool videos at home with my friends.
