What is Max Fest?
Max Fest is a fest dedicated to all things Max! Whether your work focuses solely on Max, or on a pairing including Max, Max Fest is a chance for Max lovers to create and consume all the Max content.
Previous years: Max Fest 2023 | Max Fest 2024
What could I do for Max Fest?
It's completely up to you. Max Fest is available to everyone - writers, artists, creatives, bakers etc.
You could: write a fic, create some art, make a playlist, make a gifset, make a video, knit something... and much, much more.
What pairings are allowed?
Any Max pairings are allowed, with the exception of reader insert. Just make sure you tag your work accordingly.
Is PWP or [insert genre here] allowed?
Yes, all genres are allowed and encouraged. Again, just tag accordingly.
What are the requirements?
• Your creation must be Max centric, either as the focus or as part of the main pairing.
• Your creation should be a minimum of 1000 words, or a time equivalent if you are creating something other than fic.
When is the deadline?
Saturday 31st May, 6pm GMT/7pm CET. This is the weekend of the Spanish Grand Prix.
Do I need to sign up?
No, it's a no pressure fest. Simply upload to the collection before the deadline if you want to participate.
Where is the AO3 collection?
Here!
What should I do if I'm not posting to AO3?
If you can post your work to AO3, please do! However if AO3 doesn't accept your art format then please use the tag #maxfest2025 on tumblr.
Is there a discord server I could join?
There is not a server for Max Fest, but you can join the Golden Boots Boy Server if you want to find like minded creatives also taking part!
If you have any further questions about the event, or if you need some encouragement, feel free to drop me a message. I am really looking forward to feasting on all of the Max content!
