(29th century - 30th century - 31st century - other centuries)

The 30th century (Gregorian Calendar) comprises the years 2901-3000.

30th century in pop culture

For the sole reason of being the last century of a millennium, the year 3000 is viewed as a background for a pivotal point in future history. The next turn of the millennium has a special appeal to science fiction writers.

• The comic book series Legion of Super-Heroes takes place 1000 years in the future, so the majority of its stories to date occur in the 30th century.
• Busted, a British pop group had a song named Year 3000 in which "not much has changed, but they live underwater".
• The TV show Futurama takes place 1000 years in the future with the first episode taking place on December 31, 2999. It then continues into the year 3000, and subsequently the early 31st century.
• The R-2000 Millenium Bug may happen on December 31st 2999.
