The Spin-Off Festival was 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 [[List of SBC Forums|Glove Universe Market]]. Three occurred throughout 2010, but they went on a ~~long~~ hiatus after that. These original three festivals were not huge events for their time. 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, which saw a rebrand by moving the event into a carnival theme~~, and the~~ festival became 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. The eleventh and final edition occurred in 2022 from May 27th, 2022 to June 20th, 2022. The Spin-Off Festival was discontinued due to declining ~~interests~~ in SBC's stories, but some elements of it (an exclusive event currency and prize store) were carried over to Arcade Anarchy.
