Community Calendar Upgrade: Bigger Events, Better Design, More to Come

[Uncrowned Guard]

If you’ve been browsing our sites lately, you may have noticed that our community calendars are getting a serious upgrade.

We’ve been quietly expanding and refining how we handle events across the Uncrowned network — and it’s time to officially talk about it.

🌎 Major Industry Events Are Now Being Added

Across our platforms, we are actively adding major events relevant to each site, including:

• 🎮 Gaming conventions and expos

• 🕹️ Potential return of select esports events

• 💻 Tech conferences and industry showcases

• 🛡️ Defense and military trade shows

• 🎌 Anime conventions and fan events

Our goal is simple: if it matters to our communities, it should live on our calendars.

🎨 Hand-Crafted Holidays (With Style)

We’ve also begun manually adding major holidays to our calendars.

Why manually?

Because we want them to look good.

Instead of generic imports, we’re designing events with custom feature images and thoughtful formatting to ensure the calendar feels cohesive, polished, and worth browsing. Presentation matters — even for a holiday reminder.

🎮 Esports Events (Yes… We’re Trying Again)

Uncrowned Gaming is revisiting the idea of adding esports events back into the calendar.

In the past, this was incredibly frustrating. Many organizers (looking at you, certain Halo events 👀) would announce start times late — or worse, only post the stream link once the event had already begun.

That made it nearly impossible to provide useful advance listings.

We’re cautiously exploring this again, with the hope that event transparency and scheduling improve. No promises yet — but we’re watching closely.

📍 Find Events Near You

All events use our built-in Events system, which means:

• If you allow browser location permissions, you can find events near you.

• You can also manually search by location.

• Everything is structured cleanly within the site — no cluttered third-party embeds.

⏳ Looking Ahead

Right now, we’re maintaining events roughly two months in advance. That keeps the calendar active and current without overextending our resources.

Long term, we’d love to expand this window further and refine how we categorize and surface upcoming events.

🧭 Why This Matters

Our community calendars aren’t filler content. They’re part of building a connected ecosystem — helping you:

• Discover events relevant to your interests

• Stay informed about major industry moments

• Engage with the broader communities that overlap with ours

We’re committed to making these calendars useful, clean, and consistently improving.

More updates to come — and as always, thank you for being part of the Uncrowned Empire.
