Mod World Info 🌎 Mod World 2026 🌎 Bigger, more global, and more interactive than ever
TL;DR – Mod World is back with three different options to join the fun. There will be merch, there will be profile trophies, and most importantly, there will be mods.
__
What the heck is up y’all? My team and I are stoked to officially launch Mod World 2026. If you’ve never been, welcome. If you’ve been to all of them, welcome back \tips fedora**.
As many of you know, Mod World is an interactive, fully virtual experience celebrating mods worldwide. This year, it’s more interactive and global than ever before. We’re upping the game with tons of ways to participate. Consider it a choose-your-own-adventure of sorts. Let’s break it down:
- 3 separate events (Join us for any/all!)
- Kickoff Party 🎉 – The social warm-up
- Mod World 2026 🌎– The big show
- APAC Stream 📹 – The replay, with live chat for viewers in Asia-Pacific time zones
- 3 different ways to engage (Pick your fave(s)!)
- Bevy – Our main event platform where you can shitpost and participate in live interactive voting and games.
- Discord – Chat in depth, follow specific threads, and share resources.
- r/ModEvents – Join the conversation right here in discussion threads, similar to last year.
We’ve also got some very special content cookin’ thanks to everyone who submitted to our Call for Proposals. Here’s a sneak peek:
- AMA with u/spez
- Mod State of the Union with execs across Reddit
- Mod presentations covering topics like AI, surviving subreddit meltdowns, and encouraging engagement
- Devvit app spotlights
- Admin sessions about relevant programs, updates, and events
- Silly stuff sprinkled in between it all
But before I spoil too much, let’s get you SIGNED UP.

I did a rsvp to Saturday's event. For Friday, it asked me to sync my email with events. I started process, but changed my mind, and now everything seems stuck. I don't want to sync it. Now, when I tried to rsvp for Friday's preview, it will not allow me to rsvp or do anything. I'd like to reserve that date, but I can't. It's just stuck on a pulsating snoo. I just want my account to work as it normally does for the rsvp I've done for other events I've attended. Can you or one of the other admins reset or clear what is happening for me? Thanks much!

Btw, on mobile, the login on that page redirects directly back into the app and the app doesn't pass authentication back to the web page.

u/UnderstandingAny4118 Sep 23 '26
Is it necessary to attend all the events or any one to be eligible for physical merch?
Sorry it's my first time
8
u/big-slay Mod Events Team Sep 23 '26
Nope! You can receive merch by doing any/all of these things:
Attending Mod World live
Watching the recording of Mod World
Attending the APAC Stream live
The Kickoff Party will not offer physical merch, just a profile trophy.
2
u/UnderstandingAny4118 Sep 23 '26
Thanks , what's the minimum duration one has to watch these?
2
u/big-slay Mod Events Team Sep 23 '26
No minimum. We want mods to participate in whatever capacity works best for them.

u/RunningInTheFamily Sep 24 '26
Which event times are correct? The ones in this post or the ones on the website? Because the ones here are horrible for Europeans, the ones on the website would not be.
3
u/big-slay Mod Events Team Sep 24 '26
The times here are listed in PT (Pacific Standard Time). The times on the website are dynamic to your local time zone.
1
u/RunningInTheFamily Sep 24 '26
Thanks! My main confusion was from Mod World being listed a happening from 10:00 to 12:30 pm PT, while it should be 10:00 am to 12:30 pm. We're not used to juggling am and pm!

It'll go live on the same page as what is linked here. It'll also be emailed to you.

u/theonlyrealsheru_ Sep 24 '26
Ohh ok, same for both the Kick-off party and main event, I assume?

Nope! Each one of those pages is separate. See the links above.

Can any merch really be expected to top last year's Snoo?

u/hh_9116 Sep 21 '26
I don't think there will be anything which beat my cutie snoo 🥰✨
25
u/forlornjackalope Sep 21 '26
If I may interject. An even larger Snoo could possibly top it, but I also don't have the space for a other giant fella - just in my heart.
11
u/ktbug1987 Sep 24 '26
I would love a large snoo but also understand “in this economy”??? And so I propose a mini snoo so my snoo can have a child. Extra points if a bag charm so snoo can visit the world.
ETA: meant “in this economy” from our perspective as future housers of snoo, but also given last year them getting them out to even those who weren’t in the first 10k or whatever, if they had to scale back this year. Mini snoo would also be lit.

u/AdForeign6112 Sep 21 '26
I really cannot understand this:
The Mod Hall of Fame Awards 2026
Mod Hall of Fame Attendee 2026
what is the catch, are they the same events, or those are 2 completely different events, not like 2026 New Mod Bootcamps (Q's)
7
u/BrineOfTheTimes Mod Events Team Sep 21 '26
Hey there! The Mod Hall of Fame Awards 2026 is an event where we celebrate exceptional community leaders. Mod Hall of Fame Attendee 2026 is the name of the profile trophy that attendees of the event get. This is a separate event from Mod World. Let us know if this helps clarify!
1
u/AdForeign6112 Sep 22 '26
Oh, thanks! So it happens twice a year?
2
u/big-slay Mod Events Team Sep 22 '26
Nope, just once. One Mod World and one Hall of Fame each year.

I’m a new mod so not really familiar with this event- what is the physical merch? Also, to be eligible for the merch and trophy do I just have to watch one event or all 3?
2
u/big-slay Mod Events Team Sep 24 '26
Hi. This is covered in the post:
Everyone who attends Mod World 2026, the APAC Stream, or watches VOD is eligible to claim physical merch and the Mod World 2026 profile trophy. Everyone who attends the Kickoff Party is eligible to claim the Kickoff Party profile trophy.5
u/big-slay Mod Events Team Sep 24 '26
And the actual merch items haven't been announced yet. We'll post here!

Hey, just wondering as a new mod, for the profile rewards, is there a certain requirement for watch time or participation? I only ask as some of the Aussie times aren’t ideal
1
u/big-slay Mod Events Team 29d ago
No, there's not.
Also, the rewards will be the same for the main event and the APAC stream (which is much more timezone-friendly for you)!

u/Lausannea 26d ago
Every single event is going to be in the middle of the night for me, which is not an option. Could you not have organized an event to be more Europe friendly when you have three whole events?

u/big-slay Mod Events Team 26d ago
The main show starts around 7PM in Europe depending where you are...

All I want to know is why admin takes so darn long to answer appeals, and I'll probably be ignored if I even ask.
We volunteer our time, effort and labor to Reddit. Why are we treated with indifference when an action is taken against us?
1
u/EarthboundDynasty 3d ago
If folks have any issues where it says the session is unavailable (either due to refreshing a window/tab or likewise), you may need to fully close and re-open your browser, and re-join via the link(s) available (either on the webpage in your tickets, or your email). This occurred for me when I updated my profile (so my avatar would be visible), and figured I'd share the info!
Thanks mods for hosting and modding these events! And for helping folks!

u/isobel_blue 2d ago
The only thing that I wanted to share with Reddit, as one of the unpaid mods - When I'm checking a users page to get a feel for their subreddit membership and posting history, I can't see their page if they have it set to NSFW/adult. At what point does reddit accept that I'm an adult and that it is detrimental to the security of the subreddit where I moderate that I am unable to see some pages because I will never verify my identity on a platform where anonymity is useful for most of the members of my subreddit, for safety and security.
