HP Antarctic Dome at Coachella
Coachella, one of the world’s biggest music and art festivals, returned in April 2022 after a two-year hiatus due to the pandemic. Also making a return was the landmark HP Antarctic Dome – the world’s largest mobile geodesic dome – which premiered REGEN, an immersive 360-degree multisensory journey combining tech, art and music.
REGEN gained extra attention by being minted into a 1:1 NFT art piece which became the largest 1:1 Art Piece ever traded on the Solana chain. It amplified the hype surrounding the festival’s music, HP’s brand and its sustainability message to a worldwide audience. HP’s presence at Coachella was conceptualised, activated and operated by Infinity Marketing Team (IMT), a member of the Pico Group.
