Amtpride
The annual event held during the entire month of June to celebrate our Pride for all LGTBQIA+ individuals, and how we can best support our playerbase as well as the community overall.
We are expanding each year with kingdom/park/personal challenges, highly enthusiastic kingdom representatives and event crats, A&S competitions and showcases, Non-Men's Tournaments, marching in parades, themed Battlegames, Auctions with custom made items from generous individuals, and so much more.
For all the official event info for this year's event, please see our Facebook event: Amtpride

Years Celebrating
- Amtpride 2021
This year’s event was a first of its kind with all proceed benefiting the Trevor Project (https://www.thetrevorproject.org/). The truth is Pride is not only about celebrating ourselves and our community but also about saving lives and the Trevor Project is one of the foremost LGBTQIA+ youth suicide prevention groups in the world. It’s still early, but from the numbers I’ve been given from the auction and our private donations I’m incredibly proud to say we’ve broken over $1,000!!!! That’s going to save a lot of young lives and we intend to do even more next year!
- Amtpride 2022
It feels like the month just started yesterday! But before I get too sentimental, let’s take a look at what happened during our second ever year of AmtPride. This year we did a HUGE amount of good for our game and the world by collecting ALMOST FOUR TIMES last year’s fundraising total for a grand total of $3,770 benefiting the Trevor Project and other LGBTQIA+ nonprofit organizations. This money will save and change countless LGBTQIA+ youth lives but our accomplishments don’t end there. This year our social media following grew by 40%, and our total engagements more than doubled – we even had participants from almost every Kingdom in the game this year! And we did more programming than ever holding D&I Panels, Non-Men’s Tournaments, Three A&S Challenges, the Auction, and much, much, much more. I could keep spouting metrics off for days but this year utterly blew past each and every one of my expectations and I am in absolute awe of the work we have accomplished together.
