Ticket sales are now open, and details for how to book are at the bottom of this page.
Please read over the following information carefully before purchasing tickets, and please note that tickets are non-refundable but can be transferred or sold (see below).
About the event
Next year’s event venue is the magnificent Château de Vallery, a historical monument steeped in centuries of memories and once home to the princes and princesses of Condé. Castle Party 2023 promises to be another unmissable event in the charitable and NFT calendar and an unrivalled opportunity, not only to celebrate the fusion of 21st-century art and technology in a stunning ancient château but to do more good than you can imagine by supporting Trevor’s fundraising goals.
The party will run over three days and two nights in the spectacular setting between Paris and Burgundy where celebrations have taken place over hundreds of years. The event will bring together the biggest-name artists and collectors under one roof for two unforgettable nights of partying, with a guest DJ on both nights. Entertainment, games, food and open bar all included in the price of entry. 🍻🍷🥂
During the day attendees can take part in organised activities, ranging from a soccer tournament to cornhole games. Attendees will also be treated to exceptional locally sourced French cuisine, including a traditional French BBQ and many vegetarian and vegan options to cater to all needs. All drinks for the event will be free, including wine and champagne tastings held in the Château’s cellar by candlelight with an expert local sommelier.
There will also be a firework display and traditional operatic singing in the courtyard, along with other events yet to be revealed – watch this space for more details…
The 2022 experience
“The best IRL NFT event I have attended... and I attended many! So many people from around the world, yet intimate. Stunning location, very well organised and most of all: many of the most important people in the global crypto art scene all in one place. Can’t wait for next year."
“The 2022 Castle Party was so much more than we could have imagined. Where else could you have had such a unique opportunity to meet a 21st-century digital artist, amongst the aesthetics of a late 11th-century Scottish castle. The ambience and attention to detail were beyond expectation. Such a special experience, and so lucky to have been able to partake in this spectacular gala."
“The Castle Party was the highlight of the 2022 NFT calendar. A who’s who of movers and shakers in the NFT collectors and artists community. Trevor and his team worked hard on every detail to ensure everyone enjoyed the event. I would highly recommend anyone to buy a Bitcoin Angel for an opportunity to take part in future Castle Parties.”

Attending as a couple or a group
If purchasing ticket types that require a Bitcoin Angel or other eligible NFT, each individual must be covered by an eligible NFT. Examples:

- For a group of five friends, at least five individual Bitcoin Angels (or equivalents) or a Bronze Ascended Angel would need to be held by the group (fine to be held in one person’s wallet or across multiple wallets within the group).
If the couple or group has fewer eligible NFTs than there are people in the couple or group, the ticket types that do not require an eligible NFT can be purchased for the people not covered by an NFT.
Young attendees
Attendees aged 12 or older must have a ticket.
Children under 12 can attend for free, but if they do so they will not receive the Castle Party NFTs or Bitcoin Angel Bundle. You may however choose to buy a ticket for a child under the age of 12, and in this case they would receive the NFTs and bundle as appropriate to their ticket type.
Add-ons and Bitcoin Angel Bundle
In addition to entry and your Castle Party 2023 t-shirt, some tickets entitle the bearer to fantastic add-ons.
Community NFT
This will be an NFT derived from a canvas that will be set up at Castle Party 2023. All attendees will have the opportunity to paint on the canvas, creating a unique work of art to mark the event, from which Trevor will create a limited-edition NFT and send it to all whose tickets entitle them to this add-on.
