Happy to organize and/or suggest places for meet-ups for everyone. Thinking we could even do an Ape-Moca meet-up (so we can finally meet each other after a quarter!)

Edit:
Let me think of something fun to do. We could stop by the beach, eat dimsum, go for hiking or something - for those who arrive a bit earlier / planning to stay behind for some time!
Please follow here so I can add you to Twitter group chat. This is open for others as well that are attending and interested. Let me know. One of the first things we have to decide is whether to meet during the event casually, or make a side event for us to meet.
Three days of meetups and mayhem. One big night full of surprises.
Friday
Arrive in beautiful Hong Kong. Pop over to our ApeFest homebase at PMQ to pick up your wristband, shop the new merch, and meet up with fellow apes.
In the evening, explore Hong Kong with token-gated happy hours on us! More on this soon.
Saturday
Grab a coffee and come back over to PMQ for anything you might have missed on Friday. And if you just arrived, pick up your wristband.
Snag a copy of our ApeFest zine for tips on where to go, and spend the day exploring Hong Kong.
Head over to Kai Tak at 5PM for an immersive BAYC party. Drinks, food, gaming, and lots more.
We’ll wrap up at 11PM, so the rest of the night is up to you!
Sunday
Head back over to PMQ for a hangover cure. Grab food and swap stories from the night before.
We know there’s excitement to plan independent get-togethers before and after official ApeFest events. We’ll work with community members on local recommendations and hot spots to get community events planned around Hong Kong (email us at support@apefest.com with “ApeFest community event” in the subject line.)
We’ll publish a schedule of events as things get locked in. More on this to come.
Note: Unofficial events are also popping up, coordinated by your fellow apes. You might want to plan a buffer on either side of the three days to meet up or just enjoy the city of Hong Kong.
Love this so much, reminds me of the DAO meetup we did in December 2022 during Miami Art Basel that was hosted by @Mantis! We had a ton of great conversations then and it was really helpful to get a IRL connection with people outside of the digital realm
Curious if anyone who’s more familiar with HK might be able to organize a similar meetup for our DAO members & contributors, I know we have some superstar event organizers here!
