What is Bar Citizen International (BCI)?
Bar Citizen International (BCI) is a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting and empowering the Star Citizen community. Our mission is to make hosting Bar Citizen events easier, more enjoyable, and more impactful for coordinators worldwide.
Our Purpose
Born from the efforts of veteran event organizers, BCI was created to address the challenges that coordinators face. We provide tools, resources, and documentation that simplify event planning, allowing organizers to focus on what truly matters: building connections and growing the community.
Why We Exist
