For practical reasons, only an administrator can move the page. You can ask an administrator to move the page by going to the admin noticeboard or on an administrator's talk page.
When moving, be sure to use the appropriate tool instead of simply copying and pasting the page's contents, to preserve the edit history.

This feature is exclusive to Bedrock Edition.

In-game live events, known officially as Live Events, and internally as Gatherings,^[1] are public multiplayer servers hosted by Mojang Studios for a limited amount of time in Bedrock Edition. Players have to login to a Microsoft or Xbox Live account in order to join the Live Event server^[2] and all devices including consoles can join them just like featured servers.

When a Live Event server is announced and opened, a dedicated button appears on the title screen. Upon clicking the button, the player is shown a screen with the server key art, a description, a button that redirects to a web page, and a button to join the event server. Live Event servers may also appear in the featured servers list.
