SWAMPFEST 2026

It’s that time of year, folks. Dark Venture Corporation (DKVC) is once again hosting its annual SwampFest celebration. All of New Eden is invited to come play in our wormhole! Well, you’re all invited to come play in our wormhole every day, it’s just this time we’re gonna make it easier for you all to find us! On August 22, from downtime to downtime, we will be providing public access to our (new) mapper, so you can see all of our connections and come by for some action.

  1. Who are we?: Dark Venture Corporation is a wormhole based, pvp-centric newbro corp that has been the go-to place for consistent content for 7 years. We provide the playground and support for newbros to learn things the fun (hard) way, as well as an all-TZ active community to engage with. Our mumble server is never empty (yes even during AUTZ, no we don’t sleep).

  2. So what’s going on?: For the full 24hrs of August 22nd, there will be something flying around in space in J160941 for people to shoot at, whether it’s us or our other guests. We will be providing access to our mapping tool, Aperture, made in house, for you to find your way here. We will be providing various events throughout the day, up to and including bait structures/capitals. There will be docking access, ships on contract at Jita Buy prices, ammo, other consumables, etc, to keep the fight going. We will be instituting a no-podding rule on our side of things as well (no promises for what the other guests do tho).

Finer details still being worked on, with further updates in the weeks leading up to Swampfest.

It’s that time of year again, where your favorite neighborhood frenemy DKVC opens their hole wide!

On Aug 22nd from down time to down time DKVC will be providing open access to their in house pathing tool, Aperture, and inviting you and your friends inside our wormhole for pews and events all day.

A bit of a change since the last announcement: Instead of having ships on contract, we’re giving them away for free! There’s a catch, though. They’re stuck inside an astrahus, and we lost the key. If someone would be so kind as to blow it up, hundreds of ships will pop out for the community to use as they like. Pre-made ready-to-go fleets for those that need to reship, as well as frigates galore for a frigate brawl as big as we can get. We’ll get the job started, we just need a bit of help finishing it. All you seeds, keep an eye out for the armor timer.

We will be instituting a no-podding rule on our side of things as well (no promises for what the other guests do tho).

Never heard of us before? No problem, come on over and shoot at anything that moves, make new friends and enjoy a day of spectacular explosions just as the devs intended. We hope to see you there.
