Community Events: February 3rd-9th

The future of this post:

I’ve been so glad to publish this list of events every week for the past 15 months.  I’d like to continue sharing this list of events, but some changes may be necessary.  It takes hours every week to aggregate this list from a host of different sources, make sure everything is posted both here and on two different Google calendars, and then copy and paste the regular events.  Some concerts will take place every two weeks, some every third Sunday, others alternate servers–if I don’t spend time triple checking every single activity something will fall through the cracks.  Unfortunately, I was very short on time last week and listed one concert that was not taking place that week and incorrectly displayed an end time that is earlier than it truly is for another.  These errors were corrected thanks to reports from two vigilant readers, but there is currently a lag time between my making the correction here and the update registering on the post.  This is beyond our control and I don’t know when this will change, but it means that the corrections did not show up until it was too late.

I know that people rely on accuracy when attending and scheduling events, and I would like to apologise for these mistakes.  Because my schedule has gotten tighter of late I worry that I will continue to make these errors.  So I’ve decided to try something different this week: I will be featuring one or two special events for each day, but the others will just be listed on the community and server calendars.  I will try to update those calendars more often and will use this post to highlight a variety of events from around the servers.

Let me know what you think about these changes either here or on the feedback form.  As always, thank you for reading, submitting events, and supporting our wonderful event organisers.


Community Calendar:

This listing is only updated on Fridays, but our community calendar is kept up to date throughout the week.  Take a look at the Google calendar to keep up to date on all upcoming events around LOTRO and copy some or all events to your personal calendar.  You may add events or post corrections in the comments section, but the fastest and best way to get it on this page and on the calendar is to submit a form.

Server calendars: Arkenstone CalendarBelegaer CalendarBrandywine CalendarCrickhollow CalendarEvernight Calendar, Gladden CalendarGwaihir CalendarLandroval CalendarLaurelin Calendar, and Sirannon Calendar


All events are listed in Eastern Standard Time (-5 GMT)/server time from Sunday through the end of the week, but an additional time zone is listed for EU server events.  You may add events or post corrections in the comments section, but the fastest and best way to get it on this page is to submit a form.  I’m always open to feedback and suggestions, both here and through the submissions form, so let me know if there’s something we should feature.  Thanks for reading!
