The visit is being organized by the foundation. Donaldson is one of YouTube’s most popular creators, with more than 500 million subscribers across his channels.
MrBeast is known for large-scale video projects featuring elaborate challenges, high production budgets and substantial prize pools. His productions often involve thousands of participants, while quizzes, competitions and games are turned into highly produced entertainment shows.
One of his channels, Beast Philanthropy, focuses on charitable projects addressing hunger, access to clean water and medical assistance, as well as supporting children and families and environmental initiatives around the world.
The Tashkent meeting with Donaldson will take place on October 9. Those wishing to attend must register through the official website of the Art and Culture Development Foundation. A group of participants will be selected randomly from eligible applicants using a random number generator.
The event will feature interactive games, including trivia quizzes testing participants’ knowledge of little-known facts. Winners will receive valuable prizes.
The foundation said Donaldson’s visit could give a strong boost to the development of the YouTube community among Uzbekistan’s young population. It also expects the event to help local creators connect with the global media space, encourage them to develop larger-scale projects, improve video production and scripting standards in the regional YouTube market, and promote blogging as a serious business opportunity for brands and investors.
The foundation warned prospective participants to register only through its official website. It advised people to ignore links, prize offers or accounts claiming to provide access through other channels, including accounts posing as MrBeast or his representatives.
Participants must be over 18. Duplicate or automated applications will be excluded from the selection process. Eligible participants will be chosen at random from all qualifying applications.
The foundation will contact selected participants individually and confidentially and will provide them with the event’s date and location. Their names will not be made public.
The foundation stressed that it will not request payments, bank card details or security codes at any stage of the process.
