Regionals?

By thatdave, in X-Wing

I posted the same question in the Organized Play forum, but I think this one gets more traffic.

I'm wondering if anyone has any word on when Regionals start and which locations are awarded those events? Or even when we might expect that announcement?

Thanks!

UK locations are known.

Looks like it was announced in May of last year, so I expect it to be about then again this year. They should announce the dates for all the locations around then.

Last year most of them took place between end of May and July.

Promising knowledge, but that would be a long drive and an even longer swim for me lol.

I believe regionals season starts in April. UK locations are known but not the rest.

Well, you did not specify a country.

Thanks! I'm trying to figure out how much time I have to get my game in order and make plans for a road trip. I am hopeful that there will be one nearer to me than last year's events, which would've required a minimum 6+ hour drive each way :(.

Truth, thanks. And I was not being facetious - that does give me some idea of timelines.

edit: The bit about the drive and swim, while accurate, were a bit facetious I suppose.

I'm wondering about the United States regionals.

They were announced way before May last year, it was sometime in March, and will likely be sometime in March again this year. This Organized Play article about applications opening lists the Regionals season for the US and Canada as running from April 2nd to June 12th for the US and May to July for Canada.

Swedish regionals locations and dates are set.

I know stores that have been selected have been contacted. I suspect FFG is working on confirming the dates with those stores, and they'll likely make the full announcement once everything is locked in. I'd be surprised if we don't hear the details within the next week.

Awesome, thanks!
