We are focused on boosting and promoting events within the Sanders Sides fandom, although all Thomas Sanders-centric media are fully welcomed (Roleslaying With Roman, Cartoon Therapy, and more). Events include ship weeks, "big bangs", gift exchanges, entire event months, character appreciation days, and more!
As clarification, this blog boosts events, but does not create them! (That's for all the wonderful folks we shout out on the event lists below!)
If you're planning on hosting an event, or have already started, give this blog a tag or send an ask. We want to help you spread the word!
PSSST.... also, check out @sanders-sides-events! We created our blogs at roughly the same time.

We boost fan-creation events themed around Sanders Sides, Roleslaying with Roman, Cartoon Therapy, and any of the Thomas Sanders Shorts characters.
What will we NOT boost?
No adult-only/18+ events
We will not boost adult-only, 18+ content.
While teens and kids will certainly stumble upon (or seek out) 18+ content at some point in their life, this blog will not promote creative events centered on it.
No remrom, incest, or underage
We will not boost events centered on Remrom, incest, or underage ships.
People have the right to create what they want (as well as the responsibility to tag their work appropriately) but we will not promote these topics on this blog.
As a note, we do not boost events hosted by anti-palestine users or people who are neutral on the genocide of palestines. I know this blog has been silent on the matter, due to inactivity, but we will block you and move on if you are one of these users. People who support/are neutral on genocide are not welcome in this fandom, nor should they feel safe.
Hosting a fandom event is actually pretty simple. I am here to hold your hand and guide you through this, just in case you were a little lost.
BEFORE we start, hosting an event, while simple, still requires both effort and work! If you are unable to put the necessary energy into the event to set up a blog, interact with your participants, and moderate for any reason (school, parenting, just don't feel like it, etc) then you probably shouldn't run the event. Or you should wait until you feel able to run it! No one wants you to feel overwhelmed with your responsibilities and it's smarter to just hold off.
(Note: you can also run an event and decide you don't want to do it again! It doesn't have to be a monthly or yearly thing. You can also hand off the event to someone else who wants to run it.)
And while this is Sanders Sides focused, this will be helpful for any fandom you want to run an event for.
Now let's get into the steps.
β STEP 1: Where are you hosting?
Obviously, you have to figure out where you're hosting this event. Is it on Tumblr? Is it on Ao3? Is it on Instagram? Depending on where it's being hosted, the social media will affect the content being created.
For example, if you host on Instagram, all the content being created will have to be visual (art, edits, videos) since it's a visual-based app. If you host on Ao3, all the content being created will be primarily written (fanfiction, poetry) as that's Ao3's primary function.
Where it's being hosted also affects your ability to run it. If you're hosting on Ao3, you're going to need another social media (Tumblr, Twitter, etc) since Ao3 is only for posting written media, not for communicating.
Since this guide is on Tumblr, it'll be focused on hosting an event on Tumblr.
You're going to need to create a blog for the event, whether that be a sideblog or an entirely new Tumblr account. Create an icon, get a header, and make your blog look pretty!
TIP: If you're running a yearly event (or think you might) maybe don't add a year to the end of your URL!
For example, my event @transsidesweek does not end in a year, like how @loceitweek2023 does.
When you change your URL, it makes it harder for other people to tag and interact with your blog. If someone tags "LoceitWeek2023" in a post, and then the URL changes to "LoceitWeek2024", and someone clicks on the @ in the original post, there's a possibility Tumblr will act like the blog was deactivated. Even though it still exists!
It also makes links and read mores difficult to click on, as Tumblr will link to the old URL instead of the new one.
Of course, you don't have to! If you think you might not come back to this next year, or aren't worried about the potential accessibility issues, then feel free to add a year to the end.
This is completely optional. Do what you think works best for your blog and event.
β STEP 2: the Who, the What, and the When of the event
First, who's hosting the event?
Obviously, you, but do you have any friends who want to help out? Do you think you need mods to help manage the event? Or do you think you just want to run solo?
It's always useful to have friends or strangers help out β and fun!
If you want co-hosts, but don't have any friends to lend a hand (or don't want your friends to lend a hand), you can ask your followers or post in the Sanders Sides tag to see if anyone wants to help.
TIP: keep in mind that if you do this, these people are strangers! You don't know them and they don't know you. Remember to be respectful; you might get a friend out of this. And if you realize you can't run the event with this person, for whatever reason, don't be afraid to assert your boundaries and change your mind!
Second, what's the event?
There's a lot of different type of events. Ship weeks, prompt months, gift exchanges, etc.
One of the most popular fandom events are ship weeks! Ship weeks are week-long events dedicated to a specific ship, like @intrulogicalweek or @dukexietyweek.
You can create whatever event you want. Keep in mind that there are many fandom events, so you should make sure your idea isn't already planned by another person. You should also keep in mind how many people would be interested in your event and how it'd work logically.
For example, if you want to host a Sanders Sides Poetry Week, where fans create poetry surrounding the sides, you should ask yourself these questions:
"How many people write poetry within this fandom?"
"How many people are interested in poetry within this fandom?"
"Is a week long poetry event plausible?"
In this case, a week long poetry week could definitely be plausible! And there are quite a few fans who would be interested in poetry, whether that's writing or reading it.
It's totally okay if not that many fanders will be interested in creating for your event! It's just important to keep that in mind; you should know your audience. Don't get too upset that your month-long catboy Picani event only got a few participantsβ not everyone is a catboy Picani fan or is able to create content for every 31 days of the month for just catboy Picani (sorry to burst your bubble).
And third, when's the event?
Think about when your event will start. If you've just thought about your event and the next week you want your event to start, maybe step back a little. No one even knows about your event! Give yourself enough time to set up your blog, get attention for your event, and for your participants to create! Don't rush into everything.
TIP: I recommend waiting at least 2-3 months before your event starts. This gives people enough time to create and get excited for your event, while also not being too long for people to get bored or forget about it!
Make sure your event isn't placed directly on top of another event! It's considered rude and just plain silly. You don't want to force your participants to have to choose between your event and another person's. Check what dates are free and plan accordingly.
β STEP 3: plan out your event
Create a tag for your event. For example, @transsidesweek's tag is simply "TransSidesWeek2023". This is so people (and yourself) can easily access the content being created for your event.
Most events involve some sort of prompts. Prompts are themes or situations to get people's creative juices flowing! They are often vague and broad, without being restrictive. They can be optional or mandatory.
That being said, your event doesn't have to have any prompts! Whatever works best for you!
TIP: ask your participants and watchers for prompts! Create a google form or open an ask box to get some ideas.
β OPTIONAL:
Creating an Ao3 Collection, though not mandatory, is common if your event will involve fanfiction.
Rules and/or an FAQ are not technically needed, but it is helpful in understanding how your event works and what is and isn't allowed.
Creating a Tagging system is also useful! This can be tagging the prompt used (for example, "#prompt: date night"), the content created (for example, "#fanfiction"), or the year of the submissions if your event is yearly (for example, "#2023submission").
β STEP 4: what now?
You've got the blog, you know what your event is, you know when your event is, you have your co-hosts, and your prompts, and your tags, and rulesβ what now?
Now, you're ready! Tag @tsseventhub in your posts and start creating attention for your event. Post often in tags and reblog posts to remind your followers of your event. Post on other social media. Get excited.
Do you host a Sanders Sides event? Have you always wanted to host an event, but were unsure where to start? Are you a creator who's been looking for something to participate in? Are you a fander looking for cool fanart and fanfictions? Did you stumble across this blog by accident and have literally no idea where you are?
Welcome to the TSS EVENT HUB!
The TSS Event Hub is focused on reblogging and boosting events within the Sanders Sides fandom (though, it doesn't have to be SaSi focused; Roleslaying With Roman, Cartoon Therapy, and ETC are welcomed) to make finding them just a little bit easier. Events such as: ship weeks, "big bangs", gift exchanges, entire event months, character appreciation days, and more!
The TSS Event Hub does not CREATE events.
If you're planning on hosting an event, or have already started, give this blog a tag or send an ask.

β On Tumblr: most mods on this blog are "anti-ship" and do not ship or enjoy content involving the romantic relationship between Roman and Remus.
However, considering this blog is supposed to boost, organise, and archive events we will be reblogging RemRom events, despite our dislike. We will also reblog events created by RemRom shippers, regardless if the event is centered around RemRom.
All romantic depictions will be tagged as #RemRom and all platonic/familial depicitions will be tagged as #Creativitwins.
We want to be as objective as possible as this is supposed to be a resource for fans. But, since we are mostly "anti-shippers" and have personal biases, our opinions might be apparent in the posts we make. We apologise for this.
β On instagram: There will be no RemRom content being posted or advertised, despite it being allowed here. That account has different set of mods (excluding Mod R, who is the owner of both) and they are uncomfortable with posting RemRom events.
Here are very simple definitions. Please note that most people have more complicated opinions on the subject that these definitions do not elaborate on.
Anti-ship: thinks fiction affects reality and do not support the depiction of "taboo" subjects, such as incest, within fictional media. Also referred to as "anti".
Pro-ship: thinks fiction doesn't affect reality and do support the depiction of "taboo" subjects within fictional media. Also referred to as "anti-anti".
The "how to host an event" guide is already finished and in drafts! We're just waiting for the right time to post it, as to not clog up your dashboards or the tags. β
