Questions about this server
What is the IP address for SpiritSMP?
The address for SpiritSMP is play.spiritsmp.org. In Minecraft Java Edition choose Multiplayer, then Add Server, and paste it into the Server Address box.
Is SpiritSMP online right now?
Yes. SpiritSMP replied to our ping with 56 players connected. We last reached it at 2026-10-12 12:34 UTC and we re-check every five minutes.
What Minecraft version does SpiritSMP run?
SpiritSMP reports Velocity-CTD 1.7.2-26.3, which means it accepts clients from 1.7 through 1.26. A server with that kind of range is normally running a proxy that translates between versions.
Can Java and Bedrock players both join SpiritSMP?
Yes. SpiritSMP answered us on the Bedrock protocol as well as Java, so the same address works from a phone, a console and a PC. Bedrock players still need to enter the port separately.

Around 18:00 UTC, when we typically count about 64 players. That is the busiest hour we have measured on SpiritSMP over the last seven days.
Where is SpiritSMP hosted?
The address for SpiritSMP resolves to a machine in Netherlands. Players far from there should expect a longer round trip, which usually shows up as delayed block breaking rather than as a disconnect.
Is SpiritSMP free to join?
Yes, joining SpiritSMP 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.
