+Simply Paul Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 With several already booked and more in planning, I thought it would be a good idea to have a list of 'local' Mega meets on this national forum. 2014: May 4th - Kent Mega - Website July 26th - Piratemania 7 - Facebook group August 2nd - UK Mega Event 2014 - Ayrshire and Arran - Website October 25th - Halloween Mega III (location tbc) - Facebook group 2015: Piratemania 8 (tbc) Mega East of England (date/location tbc) Halloween Mega IV (tbc) 2016: Piratemania 9 (tbc) June 29-31 - Geolympix II (location tbc) - Facebook group Mega North Wales (date location tbc) Halloween Mega V (tbc) 2017: Nothing made public yet(?) If I've missed anyone, or thier links, please add them to this thread. Quote Link to comment

+Simply Paul Posted February 13, 2014 Author Share Posted February 13, 2014 Does anyone know if there is going to be a Mega in France this year? This page of the latest caches published in France is a useful tool for seeing events which have already been listed there. No Megas yet, but that may change. It may also be worth keeping an eye on the French-speaking forum, even though it's little-used. Quote Link to comment

+Simply Paul Posted January 5, 2015 Author Share Posted January 5, 2015 This is a useful UK/RoI Mega Event listing from the GAGB. It's not included, but the Geolympix 2016 Facebook group is Facebook.com/groups/geolympix2016. Quote Link to comment
+Maple Leaf Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 This is a useful UK/RoI Mega Event listing from the GAGB. It's not included, but the Geolympix 2016 Facebook group is Facebook.com/groups/geolympix2016.
