There won’t be soda or pretzels or beer or extremely annoying barbershop singers in the town square 🗣️🎶, but Remarkist is pulling out all the stops for an unforgettable month-long summer festival! 

Like any great town event, this virtual festival celebrating fans of the TV show Gilmore Girls has come together with a lot of love and elbow grease, all from the quirky hearts and hands of Remarkist’s growing community. 💪💖  

Because our town is virtual, we’re excited to bring it to you, wherever you are, through our new app. Remarkist is a fandom and artist-led platform, and with this Super Sensational Summer Spectacular, we’re expanding the possibilities of what fan events can be. 🎟️

From Friday, June 3 through Thursday, June 30, you can log into the Remarkist app and… *drumroll, please…*🥁

• Enjoy special guest appearances 🛋️ by Gilmore Girls cast members (featuring our beloved “Couch seating” format for Q&As–think of it as a small roundtable discussion with friends as opposed to clamoring for your moment to be heard in a large expo hall!) 

• Watch parties 📺 featuring fan-favorite episodes and live DVD-style commentary with the Remarkist community, including Remarkist co-founder John Cabrera (who played Brian Fuller in the series) 

• Earn our in-app currency, KRNLs 🌽, and solve fun puzzles to win our fan collectible Mementos 

• Win special prizes 🏆 throughout the festival at various game nights, watch parties, and an auction where fans can use KRNLs and Mementos to bid on one-of-a-kind TV memorabilia and fan collectibles

• Put your knowledge 🧠 and power as a superfan 🦸🏽‍♀️ to good use and support a charity! During the festival, we’ll be hosting our first-ever charitable event: The Great Animal Rescue 🐒, a virtual scavenger hunt that will test your Gilmore Girls knowledge—all to benefit the Emergency Appeal for Ukrainian Zoos 

This all sounds great! What’s the schedule?

To maintain the fabulous element of surprise, we’ll be releasing the schedule for the Super Sensational Summer Spectacular on a week-to-week basis. Subscribe to this blog to automatically get that schedule in your inbox, or simply check in every Wednesday, which is when we’ll be posting for the following week.  

There are dozens of special cast guests in the cards for us this month, starting with Keiko Agena at our June 3 Premiere! You’ll definitely want to check back often to find out who’s next in the deck, or join our Discord where we announce even sooner!
