SL Living Expo

 

 The Second Life Living Expo starts today. This mega-event supporting the American Cancer Society through the Relay for Life is taking place before the official Relay season starts. Taking place across several sims next to the ACS one, there's plenty to places to see, smaller events to enjoy music and other activities, and items to buy. 

 

From January 23rd through February 6th, the SL Living Expo opens its doors and its heart. 100+ creators gather in 8 regions filled with creativity, paired with 100+ hours of music that drifts through streets alive with shopping, contests, bingo, bustling street markets, and countless activities waiting to be discovered. Every moment and every purchase supports Relay For Life of Second Life. For more information, visit their website: sl-living-expo.org 

 

Known as the Home and Garden Expo in the past, last year it merged with the Fandom Con and the Renaissance Festival in an expanded event.

RFL Announcement: SL Living Expo Welcomes SL Fandom Con and SL Renaissance Festival into Expanded 2026 Event

 

The SL Living Expo, one of Second Life’s mega-events supporting Relay For Life of Second Life and the American Cancer Society, is thrilled to announce an exciting expansion for its 2026 edition. Two beloved community events, SL Fandom Con and the SL Renaissance Festival, will be merging into the SL Living Expo, creating a vibrant, unified celebration of creativity, community, and hope.

“Second Life is a place where people bring their passions to life — and that’s exactly what this expanded event is all about,” said Stingray Raymaker, Director of the American Cancer Society in Second Life. “By uniting the creativity of SL Fandom Con and SL Renaissance Festival with the mission of Relay For Life of Second Life, we’re not only building a bigger event — we’re building a stronger community, one that fights cancer together.”

This bold new direction will allow SL Living Expo to offer an even more immersive and diverse experience — welcoming fans of sci-fi, cosplay, medieval history, pop culture, and everything in between. From dragons to droids, knights to superheroes, attendees will find themed regions designed to honor the unique spirit of both Fandom Con and the Renaissance Festival — seamlessly blended into the overall mission of supporting cancer research and survivor support.

“By bringing these incredible events together under one banner, we’re celebrating what makes Second Life so magical — the power of imagination, the strength of community, and the passion to make a difference,” said Cody and Roxy Chronotis, Leads for the SL Living Expo.

Expect returning favorites from each event, along with brand-new themed regions like magical forests, star-ports, royal courts, multiverse markets, and more — all curated to welcome a broader range of vendors, performers, creators, and roleplay communities.

The expanded SL Living Expo will take place in January 2026, with applications for designers, entertainers, and volunteers opening soon. Stay tuned for announcements on how you can get involved in this mega-event that promises to be our most magical yet — where hope takes center stage.

The SL Living Expo Continues

 

 

 The SL Living Expo continued on this weekend, with people dropping by to see the scenery, shop, and drop by music events. I dropped by DJ Sal's set on Sunday briefly.

 

 There was plenty to see in the surrounding sims, such as this urban area. 

The Expo goes on to February 14.
