From humble beginnings, to a global organization.
The First Coasters & Crafters Awards
The inaugural Coasters & Crafters Awards was a pivotal moment for our community, setting the foundation for what would become an annual highlight. With 30 servers competing, 100 viewers watching the live stream, and 60 players joining the virtual event, the excitement was undeniable. Despite significant lag and technical challenges, the event featured 8 booths, making it, in theory, the very first "Coaster Con" This event not only launched Coasters & Crafters but also led to the future partnership with Expedition Isles, which ultimately led to the formation of Bundle Group. From this starting point, we've built an even stronger community, refining the experience each year.
KW6Craft Closes...
In early 2021, the closure of KW6Craft marked the end of an era for a team dedicated to creative projects and community building. This turning point inspired Jacob and a group of friends from the KW6Craft team to come together and start something new.
Driven by a shared vision, they launched Expedition Isles—a venture focused on pushing the boundaries of design and innovation. Expedition Isles set the stage for what would eventually evolve into Bundle Group, allowing the team to expand their horizons, organise larger events, and build a stronger community than ever before.
Expedition Isles is started!
Expedition Isles started out as a small project between 3 delinquent friends, fresh off the closing of another Minecraft project they were apart of. By chance, the group came together to create one of the biggest ideas they had yet. Expedition Isles was born.
The project started with just 10 people, eventually growing to over 100 members. Work started on the project in mid 2021, creating the spawn islands which is what is publicly shown today.
Coaster Con 2021: A Year of lessons
Coaster Con 2021 was an ambitious event that brought players together for the first time but it also presented the Coasters and Crafters Team with several significant challenges. From its extended duration to a shortage of engaging activities and events, along with technical issues like lag, the experience highlighted areas for growth. Despite these struggles, Coaster Con 2021 provided us with valuable insights and a clear focus for improvement. With these lessons in mind, Expedition isles joined forces with Coasters and Crafters for 2022 and set out to enhance the experience for Coaster Con 2022, determined to create a smoother, more dynamic, and interactive event that would captivate our community like never before.

Expedition Isles teams up with Coasters & Crafters
At the sight of Coaster Con 2021, the team was inclined to step in and help towards what will be our first solo project. We marketed Coaster Con 2022 as a trial to our team, to test how we worked together and who we work with. We were able to create a great relationship with the Coasters & Crafters team, and we were able to create a great event for the community at the same time.
The technologies tested and used at Coaster Con 2022 were cutting edge. We'll make use of these features in our future projects here at Bundle, as well as bringing Coaster Con into a global event with outstanding quality and content.
As apart of these many technologies, this was one of the first times our media and live stream department were truly able to put into practice their outstanding quality and skill, with professional animations, media creations and live stream production that made the event an astounding success. As a result of this, we're able to extend our portfolio more into live online events.
Work starts on Coaster Con 2022
We started work super early to make sure we had this event ready for the community, constructing the event from the ground up and turning it into a venetian masterpiece. We opened the event to the public on September 3rd, 2022, and it was a huge success.

Bundled Together
After Coaster Con, we needed a place to put all our projects, since currently we had everything under Expedition Isles. Bundle Group is a way to show off our skill and ability and have it organized into one organization.
Coasters & Crafters Ltd was formed as a parent company to Bundle Group, to help manage the projects and events we create.
Work starts on Coaster Con 2023
After a long slumber, we started work on the final map rebuild of Coaster Con; the Coaster Con Island. Our ambitions were big and our sights were set even higher. We wanted to create a map that would capture the guests attention and make them want to explore the island.

We established a focused leadership structure to drive our mission forward. Bundle Group Ltd gave our four directors a key area to focus on, these being: Business Operations, Development, Creative Vision (Building), and Operations (HR). This structure ensures that each aspect of our work receives expert guidance and a clear direction.
Alongside this, we developed a robust leadership team with specialised roles in Media, Building, Art, Moderation, Development, and Operations (HR). Together, these teams allow us to operate with precision, creativity, and innovation, setting a solid foundation for our future projects and events.
Five years of thrills
Since 2020, our team has delivered five unforgettable Coaster Con and Coasters & Crafters Awards events, celebrating the best in the MCTP Community. From humble beginnings, our annual gatherings have grown into a highly anticipated tradition, bringing together players, builders and server owners from across the community.
Each event has been a testament to our passion for crafting memorable experiences and honoring the talent that drives innovation in the community. As we reflect on these five incredible years, we're excited to continue pushing the boundaries, making each year more thrilling than the last!
