Two announcements from the Yuri's Night camp this week. First, with April 12th still a month and a half away, Yuri's Night has expanded to over 80 parties around the planet! This is already 16 more parties than were hosted during the first Yuri's Night, back in 2001, and means we're almost three-quarters on our way of breaking the record of 126 parties set last year.
Registered parties are coming in from as far north as Kiruna, Sweden and as far south as Christchurch, New Zealand. The Yuri's Night Map Locator is back up and running, so feel free to start looking out for a party nearest you--or host one of your own! There's still plenty of time to register your party, order a party pack, and start planning the biggest space celebration in your city.
If you're not going to be near a Yuri's Night party this year and want to show your support, if you want Yuri's Night gear above and beyond what comes with the Party Pack, or if you just want to have Yuri with you whenever you go, then you might want to visit the new and redesigned Yuri's Night online store. Hosted by Spreadshirt and found at https://yurisnight.spreadshirt.com/, the new store has more than 30 different YN-themed items available to purchase. T-shirts, tank tops, hoodies and even bibs come in several new designs, but polos, long-sleeve shirts and t-shirts with the "classic" Yuri's Night logo can also be bought. All purchases from the Yuri's Night online store help Yuri's Night continue to pay our bills and help organize events worldwide.
Yuri's Night is a program of the Space Generation Advisory Council, an organization dedicated to engaging and developing the next generation of space leaders.
