Discord: https://discord.gg/uyf7BCmq4q
L.E.F.T.S is a 4-panel StepMania event usually taking place at Penn State main campus. https://github.com/CrashCringle12/RIGHTS/wiki. This year the event will be at the PGH Dance Game Space.

The event will feature a Singles Event as well as a special Couples Event.
What’s the event like?
LEFTS is the spiritual successor to the D.O.W.N.S. and U.P.S. tournament series, both of which were a fun social weekend, loosely organized around a StepMania tournament. Competitors create new stepcharts specifically for the event. Some people take it seriously and make stepcharts that they’ll be good at. Others submit shitpost-tier stepcharts in the hope that someone will end up having to play it. Some people get very creative with Lua scripting. Overall, it’s a pretty fun time.
When is it?
LEFTS occurs annually on a Saturday+Sunday in January or February. This year it is January 17th – 18th, 2026
Where?
Pittsburgh Dance Game Space
I’ll edit this desc more later but I just want to make sure I get this up here.

Winter Ball is a StepManiaX circuit event (event with 16+ participants) and, just like other circuit tournaments, players are expected to represent our game, and the rhythm game community, positively not just for our community itself but for the venues that host us and allow us to keep returning and bringing events to our players. If at any point a participant or guest acts on something deemed unsportsmanlike, such as verbally/physically interfering with someone while playing a match, damage venue property, assault another person, or any other similar malicious behavior, you will be immediately disqualified from the tournament and subject to ejection, and may be subject to further restrictions at future major events at the discretion of the SMX Tournament Organizer committee. A Code of Conduct form will be created that will need to be read, acknowledged and signed by all participating StepManiaX players for all events at check-in before participating. This code of conduct form is good for one (1) calendar year and applies to all SMX events in New Jersey, and, at the discretion of the SMX TO committee, applicable to out-of-state circuit events.

Dear players,
This year we had a great time at the European In The Groove Cup in Italy, big thanks to the great community over there.
The last time team Netherlands organized this event was in 2018, since then a lot has happened and next year we’ll be hosting it again. New players, new venue, new charts and more cabs! There’s a lot of space for this event to be the best we’ve done yet.
Here’s what we can share so far:

Date: From Thursday June 11th – 2026 to Sunday June 14th 2026
There will a Stamina and a Tech category (amongst others)
The venue will be Pixel Arcade located in Den Bosch (https://pixelarcade.nl/)
The whole venue is booked for just us, which means freeplay is included in your ticket
We’re aiming for 3 dedicabs and 2 upgrades

More information will follow soon. You can join the discord to stay up to date: https://discord.gg/nMYvzJqCvN
