+CheekyBrit Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 (edited) Curious when the next Giga event could be???? I'm excited to see the next giga cache come back. As far as I can tell, we've only had 11 giga events. GC4K089 Project MUNICH2014 - Mia san Giga! GC50FTF Mainz Gutenberg 2015 GC55555 Project Glück Auf 2016 GC56APX Project GeoXantike GC5AX15 GeoWoodstock 2018 GC6GB1B GREAT MORAVIA 2017 GC77777 Project Hamburg - Im Wandel der Zeit GC7G1GA Project Glück Auf 2022 GC7QQQQ Berlin - Hauptstadt der Spione GC7WWWW 20 Years of Geocaching Prague 2020 – Edition 2022 GC86VDF GeoWoodstock XVIII - GWXVIII - the last one back in August 13th 2022. We have 44 mega events coming up on the calendar, each with the chance to become a giga event if they can reach at least 3000 'will attend' logs by at least four weeks in advance. Here are the closest: 1) GCA6GW6 GeoWoodstock XX has 1676 'will attend' logs so far. 1324 needed in 91 days: 14.5 more per day. 2) GCACN96 5 Jahre Unser schönes Niedersachsen has 1068 'will attend' logs so far. 1932 needed in 119 days: 16.2 more per day. 3) GCAB00K Lesen - Leihen - Loggen has 1007 'will attend' logs so far. 1993 needed in 168 days: 17.8 more per day. GeoWoodstock XX has the best chance of going giga, though it needs 14.5 more 'will attend' notes per day. That's a bit steep. There's an attached chart of their progress thus far (there's only a few data points; I was feeling lazy, sorry). Things will need to pick up a bit, but it is still totally possible. So if you want to go to a giga event, or at least have them come back, your best bet is to add a 'will attend' note to GCA6GW6 GeoWoodstock XX in Flagstaff Arizona, USA May 25th 2024, get your friends to do the same, then all come on down for an awesome time.

I don't think they go for giga, because it will take place in our central library and there is no place for 3.000 (+x) geocachers. Quote Link to comment
