About Virtual Market (also known as Vket)
The world's largest VR event where visitors can buy and sell 3D items such as avatars and real products (clothes, PCs, food and beverages, etc.) at a venue in metaverse. This pioneering event has been held since 2018 and holds the Guinness World Record™* with over 1 million visitors from around the world. In addition to buying and selling products, the event also offers "experiences" unique to metaverse, such as riding rides, receiving customer service, and participating in live music performances at virtual venues. Visitors can also enjoy voice communication with each other, giving them a realistic feeling as if they were touring the city together in the real world.
The virtual market started as a place to buy and sell 3D data products between individuals, but in recent years, major companies that want to enter the metaverse business have expanded the sale of real products, creating new possibilities for VR commerce.
*Recognized by Guinness World Records™ as having the largest number of booths at a virtual reality market event.
