Make new friends, explore diverse events, and spark your creativity in Decentraland, a virtual social world built and owned by its community.

🎉 Prom Looks Wanted!

Got a glam look? A dreamy one? Something totally outrageous? You’ve got until May 17 at 11:59 PM UTC to enter the Prom Wearables Contest—your shot at creating a standout prom-themed Wearable and claiming part of the 7,500 MANA prize pool.

Whether it’s a gown, a corsage, or a crown fit for a digital queen (or king 👑), we’re looking for high-impact Mythic+ designs that reimagine prom for the virtual age.

Already Have a Look That Fits The Vibe?

Tag your prom-ready Wearables (new or old!) with PROM in the Builder. We’re spotlighting them in the new PROM tab on the Marketplace—your creations, center stage.

New Streaming Tools Just Dropped 😎

Whether it’s a concert, a panel, or just you on cam—you can now stream live video directly into your Decentraland scene.

The latest Creator Hub update (v0.13.7) makes it easy. Just grab your stream key and link from the Scene Admin panel, plug them into your streaming software (like OBS), and go live.

Still using the old Scene Admin item? That’s fine—it still works. But to use streaming, you’ll need to update and redeploy with the new version.
