In Brief
On August 17–18, St. Petersburg’s historic Nikolskie Ryady will transform into 0xConnect Fest, a laid-back two-day gathering for the Web3 community far from the usual conference formality.
This August, St. Petersburg will host something the crypto crowd doesn’t see every day. On the 17th and 18th, the historic Nikolskie Ryady complex will shift from its usual pace to host 0xConnect Fest, a two-day event where Web3 professionals, creators, traders, and the curious gather in a relaxed atmosphere, avoiding the formality typical of industry conferences.
Most events give you a lanyard, a plastic water bottle, and a schedule filled with“crypto for beginners.” 0xConnect Fest offers something entirely different: genuine conversations, industry insights, and a setting where expertise and personality come together. Instead of sales-centric talks, there will be panel discussions exploring macro trends and the nuances of market movements. Instead of stiff, crowded coffee breaks, attendees will relax, share ideas over delicious food, or enjoy laughs during rounds at the golf championship.
The venue itself spans an expansive 10,000 m², transforming into a hub for ideas and experiences. Attendees can spontaneously deliver a pitch, get a temporary tattoo before their next appointment, challenge someone to a strength test, or relax with a hookah under the open sky. Food and beverages are available throughout the day!
The guest list features influential figures such as MEXC, which ranked third worldwide among crypto exchanges in Q1 2025; Pudgy Penguins, a cultural icon in the NFT scene; and Backpack, the leading Solana wallet. Also joining are various specialists, promising a lively mix of marketing experts, crypto veterans, degens, NFT flippers, merchandise hunters, and even the occasional crypto tarot reader.
At $169 for the whole experience, 0xConnect Fest provides real immersion. It’s where agreements are struck over a shared laugh, where knowledge is approachable, where the boundary between business and play blurs in the nicest manner imaginable.
