There are only a few days left for February 15th, meaning it’s almost time for the eleventh annual International Fanworks Day (IFD)! For #IFD2025, we have planned plenty of activities for fans around the globe. Take a look at them today to find out which activities you can participate in!
- Feedback Fest: As per usual, we are holding our annual feedback fest! This is your chance to tell others about your favorite works related to your fandoms, fic dynamics, or things you believe have strongly impacted the fandom ecosystem! Look for our Feedback Fest post on February 13th, then leave a comment with 10 fanwork recommendations! On social media, use the tag #FeedbackFest when posting.
- Using the #IFD2025 or #IFDChallenge2025 tags, share your experience with fandoms as ecosystems on social media!
- Tag your works on AO3 centered around fan communities with our International Fanworks Day 2025 tag!
- The festivities aren’t just on AO3: Fanlore, the OTW’s fannish history and culture wiki, will be celebrating as well! The challenge runs February 10-16 and involves a new editing challenge to complete every day. To participate, refer to the IFD 2025 Fanlore Challenge page for more information.
- Games and Fan Chat: On February 15th, we’ll be hosting a chat on the OTW’s Discord. Join us between 21:00 UTC February 14th (What time is that for me?) and 03:00 UTC February 16th (What time is that for me?) to play trivia games and chat with other fans! The chat room will be moderated in English, and we’ll post a detailed schedule on the 15th.
Thank you so much for engaging in and being a part of fan culture throughout the year. See you at #IFD2025!
