RuneFest 2019 - Prepare your day!
Originele tekst
This is it, the moment we've been waiting for all year is almost here: it's the week of RuneFest!! We've packed the fossils and rallied the dinos. Mr.Mordaut and the very best scientists from the Varrock Museum have shown us the way and everything is almost ready to welcome you all on October 4th. We can almost smell the sea breeze and hear the roars of dinosaurs that'll come alive in the mind-blowing reproduction of The Land Out of Time!
Now's the time to prepare your RuneFest - whether you'll be joining us at Farnborough Int'l or following the festivities on stream.
Follow RuneFest at home
This year, we will be expanding our live streaming setup to not one but two streams running in parallel, allowing you to follow every session from both the Studio & Panel Stages! Don't worry, if multi-viewing isn't your strong suit, we will be recording everything and sharing VODs the week after RuneFest. But for the day, here's the important info:

Opening times & Schedule
FRIDAY 4TH OCTOBER (18:00-23:30*) - THE GOLDEN GNOME AWARDS
RuneFest 2019 will kick off on Friday 4th October from 6pm with the biggest night of the year!
The Golden Gnome Awards are back, and this time they're bigger and better than ever before! Join us for an evening of glitz and glamour while we recognize the talent and enthusiasm of our community members, content creators, and streamers.
There'll be plenty of entertainment throughout the evening, but don't worry! You'll have lots of time to catch up with your friends and fellow players, too. And of course, there will be some very special surprises on the night. Food and drink will be available. Black tie optional.
SATURDAY 5th OCTOBER (10:00 - 00:00*) - RUNEFEST 2019
Okay, we're a bit biased - but this year's RuneFest is shaping up to be totally epic. We're adding new activities, new entertainment, and all the biggest announcements from both the RuneScape and Old School teams.
You can look forward to panel sessions with your favourite J-Mods and content creators, the return of the achievement party, and goodie bags filled with unique loot. Food and drink will be available onsite throughout the event, and as the day comes to a close we'll also be hosting a massive after-party for all our guests. We're packing in plenty of surprises this year, and we can't wait to see you there!
Here's what the final schedule looks like:
After the main stage sessions have finished, entertainment will be available throughout the evening. Party hats at the ready, everyone!
And "that's not even its final form!!" There will be tons of other activities to expect on Saturday - some of them fully themed for The Land Out of Time, others... well... more about what we're about to announce. But let's not spoil the surprise, you'll get to discover that when the doors open on Saturday 10:00 (UK Time), so be ready!
*Opening times are based on the UK timezone and subject to change. Please keep an eye on our social channels for any changes.
