CitizenCon 2947: Exploring New Worlds (CitizenCon 2017) was a live event organised by Cloud Imperium Games to celebrate the 5th anniversary of Star Citizen's announcement. The event took place on 27 October 2017 at Capitol Theater in Frankfurt, Germany and 650 tickets for attendence were sold at €50 per person. The event was also livestreamed for the wider Star Citizen community. The event was pitched as "our opportunity to celebrate another year with our community, look back on all that has been accomplished, as well as looking forward to upcoming game content." CitizenCon 2017 featured an updated format - being a full day event, featuring developer panels on various development topics such as programming, lore and art.
