London Calling 2025 Amazing

Geocaching Block Party and Maze in London

I have just returned from London Calling 2025 and it was truely an amazing festival, celebrating 25 years of geocaching. Originating the day after Blue Switch day (when general civilian access to GPS navigation was made possible), a group of friends hid a 'stash' in northwestern USA, blogged about it and inspired the geocaching game to be created. Today there are over a million players worldwide and three million plus caches.

London Calling 2025 consisted of a Block Party (a special kind of Mega event) held in the heart of Westminster, a GPS Maze (exploring the history of global navigation systems and its application to our game particularly in the UK), plus puzzles, Adventure Labs and opportunities to meet and share with other geocachers.
