ApeCo Concludes Inaugural Event Support Program, Community-Led ApeFest 2025 Events Kick Off in Las Vegas

ApeCoin has announced the successful conclusion of ApeCo's first Events Support Program for ApeFest, inviting the Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) community to a series of community-led events taking over Las Vegas. The announcement, made via the official ApeCoin X account, signals the commencement of festivities surrounding ApeFest 2025, which officially runs from October 24-26, 2025.

"Community is a core pillar of BAYC & $APE. As ApeCo's first Events Support Program for ApeFest comes to a close, we invite you to join us at the community-led events taking over Vegas with the best club in the world," stated the ApeCoin tweet. The program aimed to fund and support various community-driven initiatives designed to enhance the overall ApeFest experience.

ApeFest 2025 is set to transform Las Vegas into a hub for the BAYC and Mutant Ape Yacht Club (MAYC) communities, with official events primarily held at AREA15. Beyond the main event, numerous community-organized gatherings, pool parties, and unique experiences are scheduled across venues like the Conrad Las Vegas at Resorts World, starting as early as October 23. This year's festival also includes exclusive access for ApeFest ticket holders to ComplexCon at the Las Vegas Convention Center on October 25th and 26th.

The ApeCo Events Support Program underscores ApeCoin DAO's commitment to fostering a vibrant, decentralized ecosystem by empowering its members to create engaging experiences. This initiative builds on the broader "Made by Ape" licensee program by Yuga Labs, which enables NFT holders to commercialize their intellectual property and receive support for projects that benefit the community. Blaqclouds, a blockchain-based fintech company, has also partnered with ApeGames to facilitate real-time ApeCoin and ApeChain payments for tickets and merchandise during the Vegas events, further integrating $APE into real-world utility.

Attendees are encouraged to RSVP for the various community-led events, which promise a blend of networking, entertainment, and celebration of the BAYC culture. ApeFest serves as a critical annual gathering, allowing holders to connect in person and engage with the evolving Web3 and NFT landscape. The community-driven approach for ApeFest 2025 highlights the growing influence of decentralized initiatives within the broader ApeCoin ecosystem.
