Starting from 2018
Every April, last full weekends
from Friday to Sunday
We get together for 3 days in Yunqi Cloud Town, Hangzhou
until 2050
With the vision of ‘Science and technology bring young people together’, ‘2050’ is a face-to-face event initiated by volunteers from all over the world. Started from the year 2018, the event is held from Friday to Sunday (lasting three-day and two-night) in the last full weekend of April every year at Yunqi in Hangzhou. In addition, a monthly meetup , also coordinated by volunteers, is held on the last Friday every month to brainstorm 2050 events for next year. It is becoming a unique way of 2050 event prepararion. Volunteers from 345 cities around the world have participated the 2050 events.
International traveling is still inconvenient for most people in the year of 2023. Thanks to 2050 volunteer Dr. Zhang Bo, young people around the world are connected with the second ‘2050 Round-the-world Flight’@2023, started from Chicago (US), flew through Goose Bay (CA), Greenland (DK), Wick (UK), Rome (IT), Heraklion (GR), Al Aqabah (JO), Dubai (AE), Karachi (PK), Nagpur (IN), Chattogram (BD), Bangkok (TH) and more cities with stopovers in Singapore ,Hong Kong, Hangzhou and Wuhu. Embracing challenges with fearless wings, this flight endows the 2050@2023 event with a unique significance. And with the help of local volunteers, 2050@2023 will be organizing meetups in Singapore, Hongkong, Hangzhou and Wuhu.
It is just like what sings in the song of 2050, titled ‘Reunion of Innocent Youth’: S/he said s/he would come that day, so that's why I am here. I say I will come that day, so that's why you are here.

2050@2023 We invite you for a nice meetup
Dear 2050 volunteers,
This is an exhilarating time, not just because of the arrival of the internet or the possibility of colonizing Mars.
This is the youngest generation in history. 50% of the world’s population is under 30 years old. What could be more exciting? READ MORE>>
On Jan 1st 2019, probably the longest countdown timer in seconds was setup on top of Yunqi. It counts down to the year of 2050.
He said he'll come that day, so that's why I am here
I say I will come that day, so that's why you are here
Oh what is in his eyes?
And what is in your eyes?
I see you stand there side by side, I feel just so happy :)
