A Season of Triumph — and What Comes Next

What a season it’s been! The last few months were a whirlwind of creativity, connection, and celebration as MELD 2025 took center stage.

From the first roadshow in August to the encore finale in October, our community showed up with passion, purpose, and play.

Together, we didn’t just meet our goals — we broke records.

✨ Attendance was beyond expectations.

✨ Traffic soared to over 20K.

✨ Dozens of top SL creator brands said yes to the MELD Mall.

✨ And throughout the ten days of MELD, the energy never stopped flowing.

This year’s convention reaffirmed what makes community so powerful: when we gather, we create something unforgettable.

MELD Roadshows — Momentum in Motion

Our MELD journey began with a series of Roadshows, each stop offering new insight and inspiration.

• Chaplin Bay – Real Dommes, real answers. Beloved Valencia led an open, myth-busting discussion that set the tone for all that followed.
  

  

  Thank you, Fred & Talya, for hosting us so graciously.

• BOSL (Best of Second Life) – Glamour, grit, and grace. Even griefers couldn’t dampen the sparkle.
  

  

  Thank you, BOSL, for the warm welcome.

  
  

• GEL – Our third and final stop became the perfect prelude to what was ahead.
  

  

  Thank you, Gerrit and the GEL community, for opening your doors and hearts.

MELD 2025 — Beyond All Expectation

When MELD 2025 opened on September 19th, the community came alive. Our very first gathering took place in the MELD Grotto, where Ashe Mountaingale launched the event — a Femdom-only session titled Intro to Female Dominance. From that intimate and powerful beginning, the celebration expanded in every direction, carrying the energy of that first moment through ten extraordinary days of connection, creativity, and discovery.

Highlights included:

• A 45-vendor shopping mall full of incredible creators

• 57 events over 10 days — that’s 77.5 hours of learning, laughter, and entertainment

• Five live musical performances and twelve dance parties

• Two full sims to explore and connect across

• A beloved Pet Park and a semi-secret Pirate Hunt

• The debut of the MELD Museum, Library, Grotto, Colosseum, and Nether Region (do not miss the Event Brochure capturing the beauty of the spaces designed for this year's convention, available at the FCC Kiosk).

• New friendships, deepened connections, and community magic that will resonate long after

And when it was all “over”? We couldn’t stop! The MELD Encore brought nine more events over one full week, capped by Beloved Valencia’s Beg Like You Mean It, Part II — which drew a stunning 33 participants.

MELD 2025 was not just an event; it was a movement. Grab a MELD brochure from the FCC Kiosk or you catch up on what you missed by joining us on the MCC Discord server for event photos plus a special "behind-the-scenes" channel of photos captured as the MELD 2025 build unfolded.

Thank you for your feedback! Our MELD 2025 Feedback Survey is now closed, and we’re deeply grateful to everyone who took the time to share their thoughts.

We received an overwhelmingly positive response, along with thoughtful insights that will help shape future events. Your reflections and ideas continue to guide how FCC and MELD evolve — together, we’re co-creating something truly special.

Thank you for being part of the conversation and the community that makes it all possible. 💜

New Horizons — The Move to GEL

With MELD 2025’s success came new relationships and exciting collaborations. We’re thrilled to share that FCC is officially moving to GEL — the same community that helped make MELD 2025 so extraordinary.

Our relocation marks the beginning of a new chapter: shared vision, shared values, shared land. You can already get a preview by visiting our Harvest Madness build, where the spirit of autumn (with a ferris wheel and bumper cars) awaits.

Sustaining the Future — Fundraising Begins

Behind every event, discussion, and dance party is the heartbeat of community: sustainability. As we look ahead to MELD 2026, we’re shifting into fundraising mode — and there are so many ways to be part of it.

Here’s how you can help:

💎 Host a Fundraiser: If you own a venue, consider hosting an FCC fundraising event. We’ll help promote it at our events, at MCC, and our inworld kiosk.

🎧 DJ for a Cause: If you’re a DJ, host a fundraising set at the MELD Community Center. Bring your beats — and your heart — to sustain the spaces we love.

🎭 Attend & Support: Keep an eye on your FCC group notices for mini-MELD style community fundraisers designed for you by our MELD-makers.

Every linden, every hour, every gesture matters. Together, we’re building what lasts.
