From April 27th to May 1st, the One Central District will transform into a high-fidelity ecosystem of technology and culture as World Token Summit 3.0 X TheBlock. Festival launch a city-wide takeover. Beyond the main stages, the event is set to host an unprecedented series of satellite popups, world-class art exhibitions, and a global music festival partnership that bridges the gap between digital assets and the lifestyle that surrounds them.
A Fusion of Art and Innovation
The summit’s cultural footprint extends across the district with two landmark art activations:
- DIAC 50th Anniversary: The Dubai International Art Centre (DIAC) celebrates its golden jubilee with a 2 day-long exhibition on the 29th and the 30th of April at the 25h Hotel, showcasing the evolution of the region’s creative landscape.
- VESA Art Cars: In a high-octane collaboration with the Dubai Blockchain Center, world-renowned crypto-artist VESA will display a series of “Art Cars” across the One Central District, including the 25h Hotel, 25 Jump Street, and the TheBlock. Street takeover.
The Official Soundtrack & Global Music Festival
The energy of the street is powered by the Global Music Festival partnership. The festival taking place on the nights of the 29th and the 30th of April is headlined by house music legend Jerry Ropero, while the opening set features Deejay Pico performing the official event anthem, “Dubai Stay Safe.” The track, which has surpassed 560,000 streams, was recently signed by DSRPTD Radio as the official soundtrack of the entire four-day experience.
