Pandamium’s Snapshot Server

Pandamiums, Server, Snapshot, Vanilla

🔥 🔥 🔥

Pandamium’s snapshot server is a experimental, vanilla, SMP server that updates to every new snapshot with all experiments enabled. Be one of the first to play with brand new features and learn more about the game with friends!

Our aim is to update to every new snapshot that comes out (usually every Wednesday) with experimental features enabled such as bundles, and 1.21 content! We discuss new and upcoming features, and host watch parties for Minecraft Live every year! If you join now you will be able to experiment with the crafters, Trial Chambers, the breeze, vaults, armadillos, wolf armour, wind charges, the boggedand so much more!

We have a very friendly community and multiple towns to join with a diamond-based trading economy. Since the height of our popularity from 2019 to 2022, the community has gotten a bit smaller but we still average around 10 players online at any given time. We reset the End every month to allow for exploration of end cities for new players, and we run an enchanced dragon fight once per month with a dragon egg up for grabs, but we aim to never reset the overworld and nether.

We expect to be reworking many aspects of the server over this new year including adding warps and mailing using the latest data pack tech, and introducing more ways to have fun with friends in the snapshots!

IP: snapshot.pandamium.eu

Version: 24w07a (Latest Snapshot for 1.20.5 / 1.21) updating to 24w10a has been postponed due to technical breaking changes in that version and 24w09a that are not resolved yet_

Discord: https://discord.gg/5FG758KPru

Website: https://www.pandamium.com/

If you have any questions, we have a very helpful staff team, and usually multiple moderators online on the servers and on Discord, to assist with any issues or requests. We also have a Release Server if you’d prefer a more stable experience.
