Find us in The Hub and Play the Game of the Day.

Are YOU ready to show your skills at VMware Explore 2023 Barcelona? Hundreds of attendees to VMware Explore Las Vegas had the opportunity to compete in the Odyssey Tournament using VMware solutions. The final live tournament saw many lead changes and kept everyone on their feet. We are happy to let you know that we are bringing the tournament to VMware Explore Barcelona, but do not think this will be just like the US event…we have new things to share.
Visit the Odyssey stage, in a new location just outside the Hands-on Labs space inside The Hub. Each day will feature a different game just like the US event. Also, 5 new Odyssey games will debut at the event. The qualifying rounds are open to VMware Explore attendees Monday through Wednesday only at the VMware Odyssey stage. The top 10 scores across the first 3 days will be invited back to the stage for the live, finals tournament on Thursday at 11:00 CET. All top 10 finalists will receive an exclusive Odyssey Finalist jacket and another special gift. We have some fantastic prizes for the top 3 winners:
1ST Place Prize – Alienware Aurora R15 Gaming Desktop
2nd Place Prize – ViewSonic 4K UHD Short-Throw Smart LED Portable Projector
3rd Place Prize – LEGO Star Wars AT-AT™ Model
VMware Odyssey by Hands-on Labs lets you challenge yourself as well as see how your skills with VMware products compare to others. Each game has a list of tasks that must be completed to accumulate points. Bonus points are available for those that complete the tasks in the shortest time.
Some new games may now allow you to ‘buy’ a hint using some of the points earned for a task. Hints provide just that, a hint, not the solution to the task. They may be information you already know, which makes them a tactical tool during gameplay. Choose wisely, and do not forget about that ticking clock!
If you do not qualify for the Tournament round, you will still want to attend for the excitement. We will have a few prizes for those that are cheering on the contestants…AND there will be special Environmental Sustainability challenge immediately after the Tournament. We will be pulling in contestants from the crowd, so be sure to show up and play on the big stage!
