The Tangled the Series Masquerade Summer 2026!
Calling all writers and readers! We are excited to announce a new event taking place this Summer within the TTS fandom! We hope that you are all as excited as we are to announce the TTS Masquerade Summer 2026!
The TTS Masquerade is inspired by the event hosted by @tua-masked-author, a similar event for The Umbrella Academy fandom. The idea is that authors submit works to an anonymous collection on AO3. Readers then have the opportunity to put on their detective hats and submit guesses. Once guesses are collected, all the works will be revealed. Guesses will be tallied and we will share statistics for each submission and reveal who made the most correct guesses!
We would love encourage more interaction between readers and their favourite tts fanfiction authors. We would love to see you all getting out your magnifying glasses and discussing fanfiction within our community. Overall, the event is about having fun and you can all follow along by following the '#tts masquerade 2026' tag!
You do not need to have previously uploaded to AO3 to participate and readers are equally important. Even if you just want to read and don't want to guess, we hope that you enjoy the event too!
First, we take submissions from authors who wish to participate in the event. Authors will add their works to our anonymous collection on AO3 for readers to read. This will be accompanied by filling out a submission form so that we can keep track of all submissions. Submissions will not be accepted without the accompanying submission form. A link to each submission with a brief summary will be posted on our Tumblr blog.
Once the submissions period has closed, the guessing period will begin. A list of all participating authors will be published along with the Guess Form. Readers will have the opportunity to submit guesses via the Guess Form. Authors may also participate as readers to try and submit guesses. All readers must only submit one form.
Once the guessing period has finished, the collection will be revealed, therefore, revealing all the authors. We will organise all the information from the Guess Form. Within a few days, we will share statistics for each work and reveal which reader made the most correct guesses.
The event will run between the 10th of August to the 30th of August. Below is a brief timeline of events. You can click on the dates to see what time they will be for you.
