INCEPTIVERSARY 2020 IS COMING THIS JULY!
INCEPTI...WHAT?
Inceptiversary is our yearly celebration of Christopher Nolan’s Inception. Every year the fandom gets together to create and support fan work, discuss the film and meet like minded individuals to talk about all things Inception (and a lot of Inception-adjacent things.) The event runs on average 5-6 weeks and contains a multitude of events ranging from spreading positivity to competitive writing to collaborative fan works.
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
Inceptiversary starts Wednesday, July 1 and ends Sunday, August 9.
Many events have sign ups before July!
A master post with updated information to come in July.
On point this year is @usersoup and I’ll be handling stuff from @inceptioncentral with a few friendly faces.

GENERAL HOUSEKEEPING
Finally, here we are, readying ourselves for a very special 10 year anniversary of a movie that has had a huge impact on many of our lives. A lot of planning has and continues to go into this and we are always on the lookout for more hands on deck.
A few notes before we part:
@inceptioncentral will tentatively be posting weekly bulletins throughout July and part of August for Inceptiversary. These will have updates as to what is happening each week and will be tagged #inceptionbulletin for easy tracking.
Participation is voluntary. Certain events may contain or promote content that is unsuitable to minors, so please contact event organisers if you have any further questions about guidelines or participation restrictions.
We hope you join us this year, whether you’re returning to the fandom or new!
