The words Shining Hearth in a calligraphic font. Between the two words there is a hearthfire with rainbow-colored flames and a seven-pointed star.

Staff sign-ups for Shining Hearth are closing today. We're pretty well supplied with staff for the Americas and Europe, but are still seeking someone from the Australasia region. You can apply here.

General registration has just 3.5 more weeks to go -- closing March 26th! Register to attend here.

We are still also seeking someone who would be willing to run a game session of Cards Against Humanity (we can set you up to do this), Jackbox, Gartic Phone (available within Discord), or something similar that is multiplayer and free to play, on Sunday March 29th from 14:00 to 16:00 Central European Time. If you're interested in doing that, reply to this post or email staff (at) shininghearth (dot) net.

"What's Shining Hearth?" It's a free online gathering of Elves, Fae, Sidhe, and adjacent folk, held on Discord on the fourth weekend in March (March 27-29, 2026). The server and event are 18+ only. There are workshops and discussions, games and watch parties, music, and plenty of time just to hang out and chat. For more information, see our website.
