Minecraft Java LFG on Discord: find players for your server, SMP or modpack

Java Edition is where most of Minecraft's community lives: the long-running SMPs, the modpacks, the technical builds and the hardcore challenges. It also has no built-in way to find people, so most Java players find their group on Discord. This page lists Minecraft: Java Edition groups forming on Discord servers running LFG Hub. Each one is a voice channel with players already in it, so you can join, swap a server address and start playing.

What Java players look for a group for

  • SMPs: survival multiplayer servers where a group plays the same world for weeks or months.
  • Modded: modpacks for tech, magic, adventure or exploration, where everyone needs the same pack and version.
  • Technical Minecraft: farms, redstone and big projects that need more than one pair of hands.
  • Hardcore and challenges: one life, or a shared goal, with people who take it seriously.
  • A fresh survival world with a few friends, hosted by one of you or on a rented server.

Writing a Java LFG post that fills

Java groups fail on details nobody mentioned, so put them in the post.

  • The version, and the modpack or mod loader if you use one: a mismatch means nobody can connect.
  • Where you play: your own world, a hosted server or a public server.
  • What kind of world: SMP, modded, technical, hardcore or a new survival start.
  • When you play, your region and language, and whether you talk on a mic.

Java and Bedrock

Java Edition runs on Windows, macOS and Linux, and plays with other Java players. Bedrock Edition, on consoles, phones and Windows, is a separate edition with its own servers. Some community servers let both connect, but most groups pick one, so this page is for Java. For groups that play Bedrock or either edition, see the main Minecraft page.

Why Discord for Java groups

A Java server is only as good as the people on it, and they rarely come from inside the game. A Discord voice channel is where a group meets, shares the server address and the modpack, and plans the next build. Every group listed here comes with that voice channel, created when the group is and deleted when everyone leaves.

Frequently asked questions

How do I find people to play Minecraft Java with?
Filter this page by language and region, then join a group's voice channel in one click. Or post your own from any Minecraft server on the network, with your version and what you want to play.
How do I find a Minecraft SMP to join?
Look for groups that mention an SMP, or post that you are looking for one, with your region, language and how often you play. Most SMPs run their own Discord, and that is where you will talk once you join.
Can Java players play with Bedrock players?
Not out of the box. The two editions are separate, and only some community servers accept both. Check with the group before you join.
Do we all need the same version to play together?
Yes. Everyone needs the server's game version, and for modded play the same modpack and mod loader too. Put both in your post.
Is this Minecraft: Java Edition LFG free?
Yes. Browsing groups, posting your own and joining a server all cost nothing, and there is no account to create here — the groups run inside Discord servers you join directly.
Can I add my own Minecraft: Java Edition server?
Add the LFG Hub bot to your server and set up an LFG channel for Minecraft: Java Edition. Your groups then reach the whole network, and the server appears in the directory.
