Inspired by the international Covid-19 crisis, BlockDown was established in the spring of 2020, with the goal of bringing the blockchain and crypto communities together from all corners of the globe, during a challenging time for all.

From a virtual 3D experience during BlockDown #1, through to live streaming in 3 different languages for the second iteration, a Halloween spectacular for BlockDown 3.0, a Bull Market themed 4th conference, and our first-ever IRL Festival experience in Croatia, each BlockDown event brings gusto and inspiration to an already forward-thinking space.

BlockDown travelled to Latin America in November 2020 to deliver a virtual event completely in Spanish and it partnership with CriptoNoticias, Bitcoin Argentina, Blockchain Colombia and Satoshi en Venezuela.

And now, BlockDown Festival moves offline once again, but this time into the heart of the beautiful Algarve Coast in Portugal!

We are creating a truly electric atmosphere that combines the very best of crypto and blockchain content as well as creating a vibrant atmosphere and exhilarating activities. At BlockDown Festival: Portugal we want you to spend your time with us experiencing a different way of life than you would at home, or spending 8 hours stuck in a conference hall.
