HONG KONG, July 22, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Non-fungible token (NFT) fans in Hong Kong can mark their calendars, as one of the most hyped NFT events is taking place in real life in Hong Kong.

The global cross-platform content giant 9GAG is announcing its first steps into Web3 through its first NFT collection: Memeland, and is bringing the Memeland treasure map to a real-life exhibition! Taking place in Times Square, Hong Kong, from July 30, 2022, the eight-week-long Memeland Exhibition allows audiences to experience a pirate adventure packed with games, the metaverse, NFTs, and what 9GAG is most known for - memes. There will also be a physical NFT wall highlighting the hottest NFTs, including NFT brand collaborations with 9GAG, available for public view.

"9GAG has always endeavored to make the world a happier place, be it through memes or other creative content. And our new 'Memeland' is no different. Today, we are delighted to join hands with Refinable in this metaverse project to empower web2 creators entering the fantastical world of Web3. Let the fun begin," said Kevin Kwong, General Manager of 9GAG.

Refinable as the exclusive NFT marketplace partner

As the exclusive NFT marketplace sponsor, Refinable brings the best of the NFT world to the Memeland Exhibition by featuring three of the hottest NFT projects in the market: InBetweeners hand drawn by GianPiero D'Allesandro and backed by Justin Bieber,  the high fashion HAPE apes, and the legendary Sun WuKong from Monkey Kingdom. These three prominent projects have all generously offered one NFT each for display at the Exhibition and for giveaway to one lucky winner. So watch the space and check out their collections on site.

On top of that, to celebrate this special occasion, Refinable is launching 100 event-exclusive pirate-themed NFTs. These 100 NFT holders will embark on a guided adventure with Refinable, alongside InBetweeners, HAPE, and Monkey Kingdom, to explore the Memeland map and games. Refinable will host a series of campaigns and activities for 100 lucky participants to engage and claim the NFTs for free. More benefits and utilities will be announced shortly, so be sure to follow Refinable's social accounts for the latest updates.
