TOKEN2049, the world’s largest cryptocurrency event, has announced its first wave of keynote speakers and high-profile title sponsors ahead of its much-anticipated return to Singapore. TOKEN2049 will take place at Marina Bay Sands on 18-19 September 2024, ahead of the 2024 Formula 1 Singapore Grand Prix.
TOKEN2049 will once again return to Singapore to welcome 20,000 attendees from over 150 countries, bringing together industry leaders and global cultural icons to share the future of the zeitgeist. Following the record-breaking 2023, this year's TOKEN2049 will host more than 500 side events from September 16 to 22. Due to unprecedented demand, 90% of the exhibition space has been sold out, and TOKEN2049 ticket prices will increase today (June 28, 11:59 pm) (GMT+8).
This year’s TOKEN2049 Singapore will bring attendees an unprecedented festival experience. Numerous activities will fuse next-generation Web3 technologies with endless entertainment across four floors of the conference venue. The exhibition halls will be densely packed with interactive VR areas and immersive AI art experiences, indoor rock climbing boulders, competition-level padel, cage football and mixed martial arts - just some of the array of other activities during the event. More than just an event, TOKEN2049 promises to create an environment where fun and learning coexist. The city of Singapore will be marked by the TOKEN2049 community, and thousands of attendees will be shuttled around Singapore on TOKEN2049-branded buses and Singapore’s iconic pedal tricycles, ensuring that attendees can spend the festival week in ease and style.
The TOKEN2049 startup competition will debut, which will unveil the next generation of Web3 projects. Hundreds of aspiring applicants will be rigorously evaluated, and only the top 10 most innovative projects will be presented on the global stage to showcase their innovations for the first time.
In preparation for the largest and most immersive event to date, Alex Fiskum, Co-Founder of TOKEN2049 said: “TOKEN2049 has always been a global platform that brings together creativity, technology and culture to inspire and entertain. This year, we are reimagining the conference experience from the ground up to create an event like no other. With 20,000 attendees and over 500 side events scheduled throughout the week, we are confident that TOKEN2049 Singapore will exceed all expectations for the event. Ticket and exhibition demand has already surpassed all previous records, and we are only at the beginning of what promises to be the world’s most important Web3 event. We look forward to sharing more exciting updates as we get closer to the event.”
