RIFT may be quiet on the official-news front right now, but the community is doing what it always does best: making its own fun.
A community-run Mech Parade is planned for Sunday, March 15, 2026, running 4pm–5pm server time on both EU and NA shards, with everyone gathering in Tempest Bay to roll out in full mech-mount style.
Quick details (so you can actually show up)
-
When: Sunday March 15, 2026
-
Time: 4pm–5pm server time
-
Where: Tempest Bay — Plaza Aurentine (main meetup spot)

Who’s running it (EU vs NA)
The organizers (and the shards) are listed clearly:

What’s the plan?
This is structured as two parts:
1) Mech Assembly (4pm–5pm server time)
The goal is simple: get as many mech mounts together as possible, run a few mini-games, take a group photo, and build the parade group.
2) Mech Parade (right after Assembly)

Starts: Haunted Terminal
-
Ends: Canals porticulum
-
Duration: ~10 minutes
-
Bonus: There’s also mention of a REX raffle at the end.
How to join without being “that person” who breaks the line
The post recommends a few practical rules:
-
Follow the person in front of you (parade chain order)
-
Avoid speed buffs if possible
-
Use RP Walk/Run depending on mount type
If you don’t own a mech mount
You can still show up, hang out, and be part of the screenshots/chaos — and the organizer also mentions mini-games/giveaways where you can participate even without the required mount.
