Questions about this server
What is the IP address for Mcvanilla?
The address for Mcvanilla is mcvanilla.net. In Minecraft Java Edition choose Multiplayer, then Add Server, and paste it into the Server Address box.
Is Mcvanilla online right now?
Yes. Mcvanilla replied to our ping with 9 players connected. We last reached it at 2026-10-24 17:08 UTC and we re-check every five minutes.
What Minecraft version does Mcvanilla run?
Mcvanilla reports version 26.3. Matching your client to that version is the usual fix when a server refuses the connection.
Can Java and Bedrock players both join Mcvanilla?
No. Mcvanilla only answered on Java when we tested it, so Bedrock players cannot use this address. We repeat the test daily and will update this page if that changes.
How many players are on Mcvanilla?
9 at our last ping. The seven-day average is 5 and the highest we have recorded in that window is 14. The chart further up this page shows how that number moves through the day.
When is the best time to play on Mcvanilla?
Around 16:00 UTC, when we typically count about 7 players. That is the busiest hour we have measured on Mcvanilla over the last seven days.
Where is Mcvanilla hosted?
The address for Mcvanilla resolves to a machine in Canada. Players far from there should expect a longer round trip, which usually shows up as delayed block breaking rather than as a disconnect.
Is Mcvanilla free to join?
Yes, joining Mcvanilla costs nothing beyond owning Minecraft. Some servers additionally allow offline-mode accounts and some do not — the server decides that, and we do not resell anything.
