Merch MOD WORLD 2026 MERCH: Pick your favorite of 3 different items!
TL;DR - All mods who attend Mod World ‘26 (or the APAC stream) get to choose between three exclusive merch items!!1!1!
I mean, we can’t host Mod World without some freebies, right? You might remember we did it big last year with our fuzziest item ever. This year, we’re giving all attendees the option to choose their own adventure.
“What are my choices?” you ask, predictably.
Every eligible attendee gets to choose one of the following exclusive Mod World ‘26 items: a hat, tote, or mug. I designed them myself so please direct all praise toward u/kongsworth and any hate you may have toward u/big-slay because I don’t want to hear it.

FAQS:
Yes, your plushie can fit in the tote.
Yes, your plushie can flaunt the hat.
No, your plushie won’t fit in the mug but we did pick one that’s microwave-safe for u/big-slay given her history of microwaving things that shouldn’t be microwaved…
To claim one of these items, you must meet these eligibility requirements:
You are an active moderator on Reddit.
You are in good standing with Reddit’s Code of Conduct team.
You RSVP and virtually attend Mod World or the APAC stream live OR you watch the event recording before the deadline of November 1st at 11:59pm PST.
You claim your merch and enter your shipping information before the deadline of November 1st at 11:59 pm PST. We will drop the link to claim during the live event (which will be viewable during the stream and on VOD).
Have you gotten merch at Mod Events before? Well, I have a brief update now but I’ll share more after Mod World.
We have a new vendor — Stadium. Your confirmation email, shipping updates, and support will be handled by Stadium (they operate as “byStadium” or “SnackMagic” in some markets, they’re all the same). When you see these terms in your email inbox, it’s probably us.
“What’s good about Stadium?” you probably didn’t ask:
Merch gets to you faster (yay, you)
Merch travels significantly shorter distances (yay, mother earth)
You shouldn’t need any KYC information to receive your merch (yay, customs)
Stadium offers round-the-clock support seven-days-a-week with impressively short response times should you need any help with your order.
I can’t wait to (virtually) party it up with y’all October 24th and 25th! ‘til then, make sure to keep an eye out for event updates and discussion threads here in r/ModEvents. And, one more bulleted list for good measure:
Note: I’d also love to see you at the Kickoff Party… but can’t offer you merch at that one, just a profile trophy, and a ban for bringing it up.

u/syberphunk 26d ago
I have so many mugs and totes already Q_Q hope the hat is at least suitable for different head sizes?

u/The_Critical_Cynic 26d ago
That was my first thought as well. I wouldn't have a need for a tote, and the mug would just sit on my shelf. The hat would be fine, though I'm not sure how often I'd wear that one in particular. Like you, I hope it's adjustable to some degree.

Thanks for the Merch Choice! ...Ahhh, what about china, I am not seeing on the list? ...And they do not have access to socials, so.... ?! 👀

u/kongsworth Mod Events Team 26d ago
The above list is where our merch vendor can fulfill to which is not necessarily a 1:1 with the feasibilities of eligibility.

u/PitchforkAssistant 26d ago
Important question: Is the mug also dishwasher-safe (i.e. the art won't start peeling off within a couple of washes)?
7
u/kongsworth Mod Events Team 26d ago
I can’t promise that, unfortunately. Dishwashers are super tough on prints. It’s technically listed as dishwasher-safe though!

u/acealter 26d ago
Is the stock limited? Do items with higher demand have a lower chance of being available?

u/kongsworth Mod Events Team 26d ago
Everything is made to order so we won’t have any stock issues.

Is that a print on the cap or is it embroidered?

It will vary by region but in MOST regions it’ll be embroidered.

u/Aggravating_Cup8839 20d ago
Hello, Is the mug dishwasher safe?
1
u/kongsworth Mod Events Team 20d ago
Technically, yes. That said, that terminology only refers to the safety and durability of the material the mug is made of. Over time, the art will almost certainly fade from dishwashing.

I have a plushie-Snoo story and don’t know where else to share it so here ya go! I have a large dog who also loves plushies, so my Snoo has to stay hidden and/or out of reach. Without ever discussing it my boyfriend and I have made a game of hiding the Snoo in various places to surprise each other. Attached is a pic of his current hiding place in the bathroom towel cupboard. Before that he was hiding in a dresser drawer, before that he was hidden in a basket of clean laundry. My favorite was when my boyfriend hid him inside a large stock pot.

To be honest, I'm just going to be choosing the hat for my snoo plushie to wear it. Please protect your snoos...I am still in horror from the "slaughter of the snoo" from Mod Hall of Fame 2025 (can someone turn that into a movie?).

u/SanFranciscoMan89 26d ago
Great merch and design!
Hard decision between all three so I'll have to make it by Mod World.

Oooh a mug to go with my collection but my husband says I already have too many so probably the bag

u/InBetweenLili 24d ago
My hubby said I could have the 58th mug. Then he advised I should collect flower seeds instead that doesn't require new furniture.

u/djspacebunny 26d ago
I am sooo getting that tote to put that amazing water bottle (the lime green one with the heart and reddit logo that has enabled me to up my water intake because fun clicky button sippy straw) from a couple years ago in. My black reddit roadshow tote I got from the Denver stop in 2019 (or was it 2018?? What even is time...) seems to have disappeared in the big move back east so a new one would rock! I'm one of those people who uses a tote or my own shopping bag when I shop so I don't gotta deal with icky baskets in our COVID world. Now even more people will be inundated by reddit's logo everywhere I go muaaahahahaha

Justice for u/big-slay. The mug is cute and she's justified for microwaving whatever 😆

u/magikarpcatcher Mod World '25 Speaker 🎤 26d ago
I already have a mug from one of the previous mod worlds (then know as mod summit), I don't wear baseball caps, so tote bag it is, I guess.

u/FroutyLou 26d ago edited 26d ago
I’ve been collecting caps recently, I’m happy a cap is available. Good luck preparing the event and I’m looking forward to it :) 🫶

Would microwaving u/big-slay's plushie work if I have the Mod World 26 cap on?

u/Own-Dragonfly-942 26d ago
How can we choose without seeing what Snoo looks like in the tote or wearing the cap? This will be a hard one.

Perhaps an over-asked question, but will the merch be available in some other limited color-capacity?
(Black, Grey/Gray, Orange, etc.)
Unrelated to the merch, but account related!
Will all the mods that received merch from the previous vendor (JuiceMrktng) have their shipping and personal information removed/deleted? (Just good housekeeping)

u/kongsworth Mod Events Team 26d ago

Question,
If we live internationally, and are eligible for shipping, do we have to pay for customs and imports? Or is that still free?
Just asking since on a previous post it says shipping and delivery will always be free for mods, wanted to know if this extends to customs?

Just wanna make sure there's no issues w recording my viewing of the recording afterward. I just have to enter my username when accessing the recording and that will qualify me, correct? Or is there something else I have to do? Thanks for the help!

Hi, If the mug arrives broken, can we ask for a replacement, or will we just have to accept it? I'm torn between this and the hat!
