Second Haven events
A seat by the campfire. A world to build together. A reason to look forward to Friday. Here, shared adventures make room for friendship.
Noon–4 p.m. Eastern
In Second Haven’s Minecraft world · Discord optional
Follow the lanterns to a little autumn magic. Ride the Pumpkin Coaster, explore the Haunted Mansion, puzzle your way out of a giant spider, or enjoy a boat ride around the island.
Our player-built festival is full of places to explore and things to try. Bring your curiosity, your costume, and whatever energy you have that day.
New to Second Haven? Get set up ahead of the festival through our joining guide.
The fun starts before festival day. Pumpkin carving begins the week before October 24. These are the activities planned so far.
Fridays, 4–5 p.m. Eastern
Minecraft · Discord voice chat optional
A little time together can mean a lot. Log in with your Second Haven neighbors for a relaxed hour of building, exploring, chatting, or simply sharing the same sky.
No big agenda. No need to be outgoing. Just an invitation to spend time with people, in a way that feels comfortable for you.
Previously listed as Minecraft Hour. Same welcoming spirit, a name that puts connection first.
One giant canvas. Lots of helping hands. Match the numbers to colors and fill in the blocks together, watching a huge work of art take shape in our Minecraft world.
Created and led by Llanon, a Second Haven volunteer and guide, this event is planned as a monthly chance to make something colorful together.
Every Color by Numbers event ends with a small mystery to solve and gifts—a little extra fun after the final blocks are filled in.
Get a taste of Giant Color by Numbers in our event trailer.

Past events · Our community in motion
Since our launch in 2025, we’ve found all kinds of reasons to gather: a festival by the sea, a race through the sky, a fresh canvas to build on. Each one offered a different way to share time, contribute, and get to know one another.
Past festival ·
Our Summer Festival brought pirate-themed adventures to a custom-built beach: island boat races, sandcastles, lost treasure, and a market where treasure was the currency.
From the boardwalk coaster to player-made cafés, the festival showed what happens when a community fills a shared world with imagination.

Completed series · July–August 2026
Our game night series was intended to run for a few weeks, and players enjoyed it. Sprint Racer and Minecraft minigames offered light competition with gentle pacing.
Host do2ba1a offered tutorials and help, giving newcomers a way to take part, too. The series is now complete.
“Mine and unwind.” This relaxed gathering invited players to explore and build under a shared sky, with chat optional. An event can be as simple as making time to be around one another.
Our Rainbow Elytra Race course linked five segments, starting with pink rings in the sky. The route passed desert pyramids, dipped into lush underground caves, and finished above a jungle river.
A shared adventure with a whole new view.
A group adventure begins with people imagining together. This workshop invited members to hear WiseOldQuokka’s story premise and explore ideas for characters, scenes, puzzles, and challenges.
Meet our quest & game builders
Build an enclosure, create a pathway, or add a personal touch. Our zoo gathering invited players to help shape a new community project near The Market, with room for ideas reaching into the mountain and toward the ocean.

A desert became an invitation: what could we create here together? Build Party Mode offered a relaxed weekend of building perks, with creativity taking priority over speed or experience.
Players could build in any region, for as long or as briefly as they liked.
A winter build party invited members to add something of their own to our distant icy biome. Block kits and the ability to fly in Build Party Mode helped make room for imagination.
Come when you can, stay as long as you like, and create something winter-themed.

Just after Second Haven launched, our first Fall Fest brought players together for a corn maze, bumper boats, a dunk tank, haybale parkour, Minecart Shooter, and a pumpkin carving contest.
Our numbers were small, but the fun was big—and a seasonal tradition began.

One of our earliest gatherings paired an all-day Minecraft build party with a Discord meet-and-greet. Special build kits, scaffolding, and bonus claim blocks gave people a starting point.
The invitation welcomed family, friends, and supportive allies, with room to chat, listen, watch, or build.
There’s room for your next chapter.
Come along for an hour, explore a festival, or help build something others will enjoy.
