Federation Grand Prix was an in game event taking place from 12th June to 26th June in 2018.
Running the event
The event is started by going to the event beacon in system of Luminaire. As soon as you land you will be given a destination and time limit. If you reach the destination in time you will be rewarded with agency points.
The destinations are various landmarks scattered across New Eden cluster. To complete the task you need to be on grid with the destination.
Some of the destinations are in low security space.
Destinations
The time limit to reach the destination is the number of jumps in minutes. The number of jumps given in the table is with the ingame autopilot set to shorter.

Charmerout | Mysterious Probe | 1 | 5 | |

Shastal | The City of God | 4 | 16 | |
Yrmori | The Forlorn Hope | 3 | 13 |
Tips & Tricks
The event is easily doable in a simple shuttle. Thus even brand new characters can participate. Alternatives are T1 frigates or interceptors which are fitted for fast align (sub 2s) and warp speed. You can pile a stack of shuttles in Luminaire, set your homestation there too, and self destruct every time you reach the destination. This means you save the time to travel back.
The routes with LowSec or NullSec systems are often camped right now. Check http://eve-gatecheck.space for camps. Don't warp directly to gates which are likely to be camped. Ping of a planet to change the incoming angle, so that you won't be smartbombed. A tactical bookmark at the gate is of course even better. In NullSec you can additionally expect bubbles. Thus a bubble immune ship (like an interceptor) is preferable.
Lastly, it is not necessary to warp to zero to the beacon. Warping to 100km is sufficient to receive the points, but rather vary the distance to keep possible gankers on their toes.
As the destinations are not given as links but plain text it might be helpful to paste following cheat sheet into your notepad:
