Road to Tankfest 2023: Breaking Records


June was a huge month for World of Tanks, with two massive live-action events. First, Aquino Tank Weekend took place at the Ontario Regiment Museum on June 9–11, then Tankfest hit the prestigious The Tank Museum on June 23–25. Each event featured an awe-inspiring display of tanks, military vehicles, and historical reenactments. World of Tanks was on hand to broadcast each event live, ensuring tank enthusiasts worldwide could experience the spectacle, regardless of their physical location.

World of Tanks Gives Back

As part of World of Tanks’ commitment to giving back, we recognize the importance of supporting organizations that work tirelessly to positively impact our communities. We are proud to contribute to their valuable missions.

As such, we teamed up with Veterans With Dogs to raise awareness about their work. We are pleased to announce World of Tanks will donate 10,000 EUR to the charity to help them with their noble cause. Learn more about our campaign and the Veterans with Dogs organization.

We’re delighted to announce the proceeds from this donation will go towards raising a future hero dog, and we’ll be inviting the World of Tanks community to take part in naming the puppy as well as following its steps and progress as it goes through its training and journey towards becoming an assistance dog. Stay tuned!

World of Tanks continues its active role in helping preserve history. As a token of our long-standing friendship and strong relationship with The Tank Museum, we will donate 30,000 EUR. The contribution will support the museum’s efforts to maintain its remarkable collection of tanks and ensure the rich history of armored vehicles remains alive for generations to come.

A massive thanks to all our players who have supported either of the two charities by purchasing any of the fundraising bundles or by donating directly.
