"Perhaps one day we could... I don't know. Go for a picnic." ~Aziraphale, 1967

Good Omens 35th Anniversary Worldwide Fandom Picnics - May 10, 2025!

Crowley and Aziraphale may not have had their picnic yet but we can show them how it's done! The Ineffable Society invites all Good Omens fans to join us on Saturday May 10th wherever you may be to celebrate Good Omens' 35th Anniversary!

How to have your own Ineffable Picnic:

* Minimum of one person, you!

* Minimum of one tasty treat, preferably eaten or drank outdoors; theming encouraged but optional

* On Saturday May 10, 2025 at any time of day... or night!

Will it be you and your hereditary enemy picnicking on a tartan blanket at a park? Or several friends to a private affair in your back garden? Will you enjoy some cosplaying? Will you theme your beverages, meal, snacks, and dessert with Good Omens themes?

Or will you invite any local fans to join you at a more organized public fandom event?

There's HUNDREDS of fans planning and seeking picnic meetups on our Discord server, linked below. You're welcome to post about yours in there as well but it is not mandatory, especially if you are planning something more intimate. Just by having a little picnic on May 10, you too have become part of the celebration!
