Genesis Week 2023 is gearing up to be more than just an event; rather, a celebration of the birth of Upland and it’s rapidly expanding Metaverse. It also marks the anniversary of the first property that was minted within the platform, a significant milestone in the history of the project. The event is set to take place in Las Vegas from June 8th to 9th, promising attendees access to a packed schedule of activities, including a live city opening, community exhibitions, and presentations by the Upland team and its associates.
The event will kick off with a Happy Hour meet-up on Thursday, June 8th, followed by a full day of in-person experiences on Friday, June 9th. Attendees will have the opportunity to network with fellow Uplanders, exhibitors, designers, and the Upland Team. The event is designed to foster community engagement, allowing attendees to connect with like-minded individuals and share their experiences in the Upland Metaverse.
Exclusive In-Person Events and Rewards
One of the highlights of Genesis Week 2023 is its exclusive in-person rewards for attendees. These include Block Explorers (i.e. avatars), Wearables, Properties, and much more. For instance, attendees who purchased an Early Bird Genesis Week ticket will receive the SuperFest ’23 Drums Block Explorer, while all attendees will receive the SuperFest ’23 Guitar Block Explorer.
Moreover, participants will have the unique opportunity to join an event schedule that includes activities such as a Live City Opening, a Product Panel & Ask Me Anything (AMA) session, community-led exhibitor presentations, and the Upland Awards Show & Grand Prize Drawing. In fact, as part of the live city opening, all attendees will receive one property in the soon-to-be-announced city. Lastly, every attendee will receive a Genesis Week Tie Dye Wearable, allowing them to dress up their 3D Avatar in Genesis Week merchandise.
Live Giveaways and the Highly Anticipated Grand Prize
In addition to the benefits outlined above, each in-person attendee of the Genesis Week 2023 will be automatically entered into a live giveaway, providing them with the opportunity to win one of several prizes. These include Exclusive Stock Car Pro Series Race Cars, Low Mint MV Motors Cars, Genesis Week Go Karts, Early Beta Cafe Access, and more.
Moreover, as the event date draws closer, Upland has promised to reveal its Genesis Week Grand Prize over the coming days. The offering will be a one-of-a-kind prize given only to one lucky Uplander during the week’s proceedings. It bears mentioning that the grand prize isn’t limited to in-person attendees.
Exhibitions and Panels: Showcasing Innovation and Fostering Dialogue
Genesis Week 2023 is set to host a diverse range of exhibitors from the Upland community, including UPX World, Upland Kingdoms, Uplanders Brew, and ViVA Las Upland, among others. These exhibitors will showcase their innovative projects, demonstrating the vast potential within Upland’s immersive Metaverse. Each participant brings a unique contribution to the Upland ecosystem, from enhancing user experience and fostering community engagement to introducing new realms of virtual land ownership and management.
In addition to the exhibitions, Genesis Week 2023 will feature panel discussions led by key figures in the Upland community. These panels will delve into various aspects of Upland’s impact and evolution, covering topics such as Upland Economics, Evolution of Racing in Upland, and the Future of the Metaverse & Gaming. These discussions aim to foster a deeper understanding of Upland’s dynamic landscape and the potential it holds for the future.
Fostering Individuality and Broadening Boundaries the Upland Way
It’s worth noting that Upland has recently made headlines with the launch of “Wearable Legits.” This innovative feature enables Uplanders to customize their avatars with costumes inspired by the famous Mangueira samba school in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. This addition not only allows users to express their unique personalities but also deepens their interaction with Upland’s virtual environment.
In a similar vein, Upland has extended its digital territory to encompass two renowned cities: London and Birmingham. This expansion has been commemorated with the release of 14 London Map Asset Chess Piece designs, infusing the game with a distinctly British flair. By incorporating real-world landmarks and experiences into its virtual world, Upland provides players with the chance to discover and interact with the rich cultural heritage and history of these cities.
Looking Ahead
As Upland continues to evolve and expand, it’s clear that the platform is not just about buying/selling/trading virtual properties. Instead, the project aims at creating a vibrant, interactive community where users can express their individuality, explore new horizons, and engage with the rich tapestry of cultures represented in the Metaverse.
With its innovative features and continuous expansion, Upland is redefining the boundaries of the virtual paradigm, offering an immersive experience that goes beyond the conventional. Moreover, through its upcoming Genesis Week 2023 event, Upland is poised to continue its journey of innovation, creating new opportunities for engagement and exploration in the Metaverse.
