What if the fanfest could be held in the game itself? With that thought in mind I began thinking through how something like that might work.

1) A new area: Fanfest Hall
2) PVP arena
3) Fans could submit art that could be placed on interactive wall points that could be clicked to view.
4) A main hall area could be setup for live stream where cutscenes could play for anyone in the area.
5) Gold saucer style minigames could be setup
6) Special npc vendors could be available for limited time ingame items
7) Set as a dungeon instance or each server have instanced zones to prevent overcrowding?
Can we collaborate please? I want to do this too. I have my own ideas including hosting webcasts at rp venues and players doing irl cosplay videos. I also put this idea before the head of a major DC Discord who organizes special events on the Primal DC and I am awaiting her response. I am also friends with the player who hosts the YouTube channel "A Recipe Reborn". I could ask her if she wanted to do a live FF14 culinarian stream.

I also thought doing such an event for charity. There is a charity that I have been a part of for a few years but I was planning on giving up. But this situation has given me new inspiration. Get back to me, I would really like to work together.
