Generally we try to wait at least 3-4 years before revisiting a geographic area or specific city. If Mysterium has visited your area in the last few years, we are unlikely to accept your bid.
Groups: Bidding FAQ
What happens to my bid if it isn’t chosen?
We will hold on to your bid and may consider it for a future year. You are also welcome to update (if needed) and re-submit your bid in a future year.
How do I contact you with questions about my bid or the bidding process?
You can contact us at bids@fallingmangroup.org.
Will we have to do this alone, or will FMG help us?
FMG will absolutely help! We want this to be a collaboration, and you should expect to work with the existing pool of Mysterium volunteers/staff. We need your bid team to bring an overall vision and leadership for your Mysterium contention, but you won’t be alone in making it happen.
I don’t want to run a Mysterium/bid, but I want Mysterium to come to my home town!
We get that a lot. As explained above, though, Mysterium will only be coming to cities that receive serious bids. We wish we could go to every city that has Myst fans, but there are lots of logistical reasons that make that difficult.
