With the global pandemic putting paid to live events and gatherings over the summer, the plans for a second UK R2 Builders event following on from last years excellent show had to change, and as with so many other live events they’ve decided to go online. Saturday 1st August will see Droid Builders Live! bring 7 hours of content, and some amazing guests.

2020 is also the 10th anniversary of the UK R2 Builders, a decade of fundraising and steady expansion as well as being a familiar and welcome sight on the UK convention scene.

We’ll be sure to bring any news or coverage from the event to Fantha Tracks, and fingers crossed we can do it again next year in person.
