Star Citzen’s latest CitizenCon is just days away  and Cloud Imperium Games promises it will be the game’s most “expansive and immersive” event yet.

CitizenCon 2954 will take place at Manchester Central in Manchester, UK between October 19 and 20 with nearly 5000 attendees expected to be present. The convention center will be themed after the UEES Barbary, one of the UEE’s Bengal Fleet Carriers. The two halls are modeled after the carrier’s hangar bays, and one hall will even feature a massive, custom built F7C Hornet for fans to take photos with.  The F7C will remain in Manchester as an art installation following the event. The event will feature live presentations that will also be broadcast online, and of course the ability to connect with each other in person.

The Keynote presentation will be live at 2AM PDT on Saturday, October 19 and fans can tune on either Twitch or YouTube to watch it live.

CIG will close day 1 with a ‘special unannounced presentation’ that the team promises fans won’t want to miss. Day 2 will focus on the future of the game and will include details on a “major shift” to gameplay when it comes to interacting with resources, reveals of new ships, and some more surprises.

The full schedule for this year’s CitizenCon can be found on the official Star Citizen website.
