Hey there all you Autobots, Decepticons, Neutrals and others! The moment you've all been waiting for is here!

It's the 2026 Jazz Week prompt list!

This year, we're changing things up just a little from the usual format and adding wild card prompts! These are prompts you can swap in for a day's prompts if you don't like either of them but still want a bit of direction for your fills. These are optional, like all Jazz Week prompts, but we hope they inspire.

Remember, Jazz Week is all ages, all ratings and all types of creative works! Create freely and tag appropriately (during posting in July) and have fun!

See you July 19th!

And, as always, the text version of the prompts for those of us who can't see the graphic:

July 19: Space//Light Show July 20: Planning//Past & Future July 21: Trio//Peekaboo July 22: Swing time//Care July 23: Telephone Game//Ballad July 24: Avalanche//Heist July 25: Oath//On patrol

Wild Card Prompts: -You can certainly try -Comfort -Distrust -Integration -Firestorm

Don't forget Jazz Week!

Jazz Week 2026 is coming! The event runs from July 19-25 this year and the prompts will be posted on June 1 or thereabouts. (Time zones, you know)

Mod eerian is considering an actual themed event this year, rather than last year's accidental Movie Titles theme. What do you all think?

[autobotjazzweek]

hey, y'all. Guess what tomorrow is.

[heartsandsparksshipweek]

Hey everyone! This event has been going twice a year for a while now! I've been wondering what to do to keep folks interested and had considering that this might be better as a once a year event. However, there's always been some interest in canon Cybertronian/organic oc entries. If I were to host it, I would replace the summer event with it.

Would you be interested in a canon Cybertronian/organic oc ship week?

Yes, I would be interested in participating

No, but I would like to see what others would do

No interest at all

Voting ended onMar 16

Lambo Twins Weekend 2026

Our next TF Micro Event (after an accidental hiatus, sorry about that!) is Lambo Twins Weekend, a mini-fest dedicated to the Autobots' heavy hitters, Sideswipe & Sunstreaker!!

This is an all ages, all creation fest! Anyone can participate at any level, and bring any kind of fanwork! There are no maximums or minimums, just bring your Lambo Love! And be sure to celebrate both twins, please.

The theme for Lambo Twins Weekend is: GROUNDED

Use it as much or as little as you like, including ignoring it completely. Your creations are NOT required to include it, the theme is just for creators who like a little nudge.

Fills can be posted anywhere, but if you want us to share, make sure to @ tfmicroevents on Tumblr or Bluesky (and/or send us your offsite link)! (Currently, there is NOT an AO3 collection, but mod eerian is open to making one if there's enough demand.) Creations also do not have to be unique to the fest, but please don't post them before February 21 if you're double dipping.

Lastly, remember to have fun and don't stress! If you’re not finished by the 22nd, don't sweat it! We'll share any and all late creations!

[autobotjazzweek]

The event happens next weekend!

Howdy y'all! Im posting to tumblr for event mod @zombieprowl to advertise the annual ProwlxJazz Community Anniversary Challenge! Text is copied from the community discord (join here: https://discord.gg/upnjpEWh )

Hi Everyone. Bet y'all thought we'd be skipping the challenge this year. But there is no way we wouldn't celebrate the anniversary. So Happy PxJ Community Anniversary! We will be moving the event a little to start from September 19th and it will end on October 19th.

This year the ever wonderful Jar of Loose Screws will be providing the prize.

We're making it simple this time around. September, throughout December are 4 months filled with celebrations around the world and my country. So the focus of this year's challenge is: Holidays.

And because I'm me, gotta always add a little modifier to add to the challenge. You are allowed to use any existing Holidays from around the world and adapt it into your piece, but you're just as welcome to create brand new holidays to serve your works. Five modifiers are available for you to choose from and you must use one of these modifiers.

The modifiers will be an animal or creature that you must include in your piece somehow. The modifiers are:

Black Cats.

Bats.

Dragons.

Ravens

Scarab

You can submit art (photos are acceptable) or written fiction. For fan fiction the minimum length is 500 words.

You will have until 11:59 cst on October 19th to submit your piece and be eligible for the prize.

[autobotjazzweek]

(full disclosure: mod eerian co-mods this event too)

Let's help the ProwlxJazz Community have another successful event! They've been around since the Livejournal days and have had a rough couple of years after Dreamwidth traffic slowed down. Let's help give it a boost in 2025!

The End (For Now)

Well everyone, all good things come to an end and the Jazz Week party is no exception. It is now July 27, so this is the official wrap up. Y'all made some great fills this year and we've enjoyed your art and fic a whole lot. You deserve a gold star.

If you started a fill that's not finished yet, don't sweat it! Finish when you can, post it wherever you share your creative works and give us a tag to let us know! We'll still share it to the Jazz Week accounts! Also, the AO3 collection will stay open til next year's event, so you can keep adding things there.

Thank you all for keeping this event going! We can post til the cows come home, but it's not a party without all of you contributing. We'll see you again next July!

Jazz Week 2026 will take place July 19-25, see you there!
