Blogger MrBeast visited Uzbekistan and met with fans

American video blogger MrBeast (Jimmy Donaldson) visited Tashkent and Samarkand as part of his trip to Central Asia. The visit was organized by the Fund for the Development of Culture and Arts of Uzbekistan.

On October 9, in Tashkent, a closed meeting of the blogger with fans was held at the Center for Contemporary Art. More than 230 thousand people registered to participate in it, of which 200 participants were randomly selected. During the visit, MrBeast presented a mural with an image of the participants of the Beast Games reality show and gave away cash prizes: three finalists of thematic contests received suitcases with 100 million soums each. Outside the center, a crowd of fans gathered, to whom the blogger's team handed out branded chocolates.

The next day, on October 10, the blogger arrived in Samarkand, where his appearance on Registan Square gathered a large crowd of fans. Due to the dense crowd, filming was difficult, and the blogger's car had trouble moving through the street, which MrBeast talked about in a video message. According to the Fund for the Development of Culture and Arts, there were no further plans for the blogger to visit other regions of the country, after which he returned to Tashkent, and his film crew continued working in Bukhara and Khorezm.
