EVE Invasion World Tour: Round Three - EVE Down Under!

If you'd like to discuss this devblog, feel free to head on over to the feedback thread on the official forums!



Glorious Capsuleers,



The time is once again here for another EVE Invasion World Tour Megablog - this one focused on the shenanigans that are about to kick off next weekend at EVE Down Under 2019!



One of the longest running events on the calendar, EDU has harnessed the uniqueness of our Aussie community for more than half a decade, and we're super stoked to be working with the event organizers as part of the Invasion World Tour this year.



This year's event will be the biggest EVE Down Under ever in terms of CCP attendance, with a total of ten devs, including CCP Hellmar, the CEO of CCP, flying out to talk spaceships and present to our pilots on quite literally the opposite side of the planet.



As we roll toward what's looking like it'll be the most epic EDU ever, the World Tour team are currently putting the final touches on a celebration of all things Aussie community for our pilots who're coming to Sydney, and we're now ready to share more information with you guys!

An Awesome Sponsor Turns Into An Incredible Partner!



As part of the EVE Down Under megablog, we're super happy to reveal that after their amazing support with the first two legs of the EVE Invasion World Tour, CORSAIR will be joining us for the rest of the journey this year as our partner for all World Tour events over the course of 2019.



We're super happy to have CORSAIR as our sponsor for the World Tour after the excellent support we received so far.



The glorious light of iCUE RGB will continue to shine throughout the year as we head to venues across the globe to celebrate all things internet spaceships!

The EVE Invasion World Tour



We've come to realize over the last few months that taking a break from hosting Fanfest in Reykjavík was an even crazier idea than we first imagined, but wow did we underestimate the response from the community!



Two legs of the World Tour down, and we've already had two record breaking events with the largest EVEsterdam in history and the biggest gathering of Russian speaking pilots we've ever witnessed.



The way in which the community has embraced the World Tour has been incredible so far, and we're super stoked to continue the journey as we head to Toronto, that place I can't spell in Finland, Berlin, Vegas and London later in the year.



While we're on the road this year we'll be travelling across the planet to raise a glass to the awesomeness and uniqueness of the EVE Community at every stop along the way, as we talk spaceships and share stories about the crazy stories capsuleers get themselves into.



It's been epic so far and we can't thank attendees at EVEsterdam and St. Petersburg enough for the incredibly warm reception we've received so far. We can't wait to get out to the rest of the stops on the trip and meet more of our pilots!

So, Who's Coming To EVE Down Under?



Given that our faithful CCP Dopamine is still in one piece after both EVEsterdam and St. Petersburg, we'll be slipping him back in his shipping crate and sending him off to Australia to host the third round of the EVE Invasion Tournament Series.



There's going to be be some player gathering veterans showing up at EDU this year, as well as a couple of rookies that are going to need Australian survival tricks and training on how to avoid Dropbear and Hoopsnake attacks.



For EVE Down Under 2019, the CCP roster will be:




  • CCP Hellmar

  • CCP Curtis

  • CCP Mimic

  • CCP Muppethunter

  • CCP Larrikin

  • CCP Ender

  • CCP Nomad

  • CCP Karkur

  • CCP Antiquarian

  • CCP Dopamine

What's Happening At EVE Down Under?



We've got a pretty packed schedule for you guys at EVE Down Under this year and have been collaborating closely with the EDU team to make sure that the event maintains its rather Australian flavour and uniqueness.



While there's two days of programming on May 24 and 25, there's also a few additional activities on the Thursday and Sunday (May 23 and 26), so pilots who're attending won't have a shortage of things to get up to over the course of the weekend.



The EVE Invasion World Tour is heavily focused on celebrating the amazing community that has grown around New Eden over the course of the last sixteen years, and our Aussies have been a very proactive, loud and passionate part of our core community for as long as EVE has existed.



We can't wait to kick things off and get the party started!



The Program



Over the course of four days there'll be dinner, partying, presentations, roundtables and all manner of spaceship related fun. Let's take a look at the schedule in more detail.
Please be aware that the roundtable track runs parallel with the presentation track.
