The Spin-Off Festival is an event created by [[tvguy347]] where [[Spin-Offs|Spin-Off]] creators take the time to share news about their spin-offs, similar to the Comic-Con. They also play games made by other members, and buy Spin-Off related merchandise from the [[~~Glove Universe~~|Glove Universe Market]]. Three occurred throughout 2010, but they went on a long hiatus after that. These original three festivals were not huge events . A fourth finally occurred from May 31st, 2013 to June 10th, 2013, transforming it into a full fledged event. A fifth one later happened from May 22, 2015 to June 12, 2015, ~~with~~ the festival ~~becoming~~ a permanent annual event after that. The event did not happen in 2020 however, being replaced by [[Arcade Anarchy]] that year instead. It returned with a tenth edition in 2021, lasting from May 21st, 2021 to June 14th, 2021.
