About Myself

#OSFest2024 building is underway! The festival runs from Opening Day Oct 4, 2024 thru Closing Day Oct 20, 2024 with Burn Events at the end of the night. Are you having an event during those dates? Contact us to get on our satellite event list so we can promo your event during OSFest 2024! We have 8 hours set aside for satellite events on other grids. On the grid we have 110 hours of performer events and 84 hours to scheduled to see exhibits and stores or participate in activities and sponsorship!

My Interests

The community voted to have no particular unifying theme this year so it will be an interesting hodgepodge of exhibits, stores, and performances. The grid layout is also different from previous festivals. Something new and fresh for a fresh new year!

I'm Looking For

OSFest celebrates the creative talents of residents in the decentralized Hyperverse. We welcome merchants, exhibit presenters, and entertainment artists. For two full weeks, including weekends, we'll have music, dance, art, and merchant expos in one place - the OSFest Grid! This is an all volunteer effort with a limited number of free parcels for exhibitors and merchants provided by the grid sponsors.

The plot thickens!
Over the next few days it will be possible to choose your parcel on the opensimfest Grid using a new webpage on opensimfest.com

We are working as fast as we can to get your access to the grid and open registration for those who opt to use local avatars (HG avatars can be added/invited to your parcel groups).
For those planning to use HG avs only, contact Shelenn.Ayres @grid.metaversedepot.com:8002 (note we cannot invite HG avs to the parcel groups until you visit the OSFest 2022 grid so we need to coordinate times)

There are so many ways to represent yourself and your grid at OpensimFest. Get a free parcel and exhibit. Sign up to be a 'music maker - your own singing, or as a DJ. Or simply be a Greeter.
For one hour, you're the first person that people meet on the festival grid, so it's a chance to make new friends, and to support our diverse community, Will you be a part of something positive?
