Dirtbusters Anniversary
Come celebrate our 30th birthday with us.
To mark the occasion, we invite Fastaval to a reception featuring DB-pagne, speeches from the Commander and former Commanders, beer games on the grass weather permitting, and just good music and conversation.
A ttRPG One Shot w Paula Deming & Friends!
Paula Deming runs a ttRPG one shot featuring players from the Fastaval ttRPG community with game details and events decided by YOU the audience!
Comedy Meets Board Games with Paula Deming (Æresgæst)
Paula Deming shares her thoughts and insights on making comedy videos about playing board games, how to make a game look fun on camera, and the trials and tribulations of the entire internet being able to see when you get a rule wrong. The audience will work together to create an idea for a sketch video and have a chance for a short Q&A.
Magic the Gathering – Sealed
Sealed is a great format if you look forward to the excitement of opening new cards and playing without being required to bring your own deck.
Welcome ceremony
The General welcomes you to Fastaval 2026. We’ve all been looking forward to returning to another familiar Fastaval, and what better way to kick off the festival than to gather for an official Welcome Ceremony.
Board Game Designer Talks
Poor accessibility isn’t just when the text is in a green, curly font on a red background. It’s also when cards have to be turned the right way up to read their values. Or when the text is really small and has to be readable from a distance. When the icons look alike or don’t make sense. When your attention is naturally drawn to the wrong places. Or when it takes 30 minutes to sort the game components and the game itself is over in 5 minutes.
New to Fastaval
Never been to Fastaval before? Then come along on a tour, where we’ll also talk about some of the more internal concepts that may be floating around.
There will be time for loose talk, questions and meeting others who also don’t know Fastaval inside out. You can sign up so it’s in your program, but otherwise you can also just show up. If you have a friend or hear about someone who wants to join us, feel free to take them under your arm.
Mega Civilization
Mega Civilization is a boardgame for 5–18 players, where you experience humanity’s earliest civilizations across a time span of roughly 8,000 years — from the Ice Age to the Iron Age. Each player leads a civilization, striving to spread their culture across a vast game board stretching from Europe through North Africa and all the way to India.
Fastaval Re-Allocation
The aim of Fastaval Re-allocation is to activate the geeky stuff, which is out there and sadly collecting dust. It is a place, where people can come and give their books, live weapons, boardgames and more away for free, with the gentleman’s agreement, that you cannot ever sell it for profit afterwards.
Game master workshop
Will you be a game director at Fastaval 2026? Thank you so much for your time. It’s a huge help and we really appreciate your time and commitment. This year, we’re repeating the success of last year with a workshop before Fastaval. The workshop will take place on our Discord server, and therefore online. This […]
