Decentraland, a decentralized virtual reality platform, has announced that it will be collaborating with Polygonal Mind and Vegas City to host the 2023 edition of Metaverse Pride. A three-day event being held from June 27-29, it is expected to be the largest celebration of the global LGBTQIA+ community to be held in a digital space.
This is the third year that the platform is organizing this multicultural event, which promises to showcase bigger and better virtual art installations, immersive experiences, live musical performances, prizes and LGBTQIA+ educational content. Attendees can participate in the festivities using their bespoke avatars and custom wearables, and can even create their own by participating in the wearable design contest.
In addition to an interactive parade, the event also promises to include panel discussions and educational workshops addressing LGBTQIA+ rights, advocacy and mental health under ‘The Ad Council’s Love Has No Labels’ campaign. Lara Dias, Partnerships Manager and Metaverse Pride Coordinator at the Decentraland Foundation, hopes that the event will provide a safe space for all attendees to share their experiences, breaking down misconceptions and stigmas through open and honest conversations to foster a strong community that validates and recognizes such struggles.
“It is an honor to lead this year’s Metaverse Pride. By involving community members in the event’s organization and execution, we aim to foster a sense of shared ownership and unity within our virtual community,” Dias said in a press release.
To participate in Metaverse Pride 2023, individuals must create an account in the Decentraland Metaverse, create their own avatar, and enjoy the dazzling floats and supportive engagements.
