Popular Adventure Experience Enters Virtual Space, Open To All Ages, April 23
Cotopaxi, Benefit Corporation, outdoors apparel and gear brand, and founders of the popular Questival event series, today announced Cotopaxi Questival Quaranteam, a virtual adventure experience during the nationwide shelter in place/stay at home mandate. With the current global pandemic forcing collective isolation, cancellation of physical events, and a resounding unity throughout the outdoors and general consumer spaces, Cotopaxi is proud to offer a quarantine-style version of its epic adventure scavenger hunt.
Questival Quaranteam aims to expand on the original 24-hour Questival experience and create an interactive, engaging and safe experience for those seeking fun, adventure and connection during these isolating times. Kicking off on April 23, Cotopaxi will provide a list of creative challenges to complete, ranging in difficulty and possible points, and teams of 1 to 6 people (in the same household, or teams can be formed with others via video chat) have 72 hours to complete as many as possible.
An icon of the original Questival, the Luzon 18L Backpack is sustainably made with 100% repurposed nylon fabric. It’s a lightweight, versatile top-loader perfect for adventures near or far. Add a Luzon to your ticket and get your pack for 15% off retail price.
* When you order a Questival+Luzon bundle, you’ll receive your Questival registration confirmation, along with a randomly selected 18L backpack that we’ll send to your residence. Learn more about our remnant products here.
Challenges will fall into categories such as Do Good, Adventure, Quirky, Fitness/Wellness, Teamwork, and most importantly, Family, and the experience is open to all ages, from kids to Grandparents. Using the Cotopaxi Quaranteam app, available on iPhone and Android, participants upload videos and pictures of completed challenges within the 72 hour timeframe. Teams from around the globe will not only compete against but also judge each other, and the top 10 teams will win coveted prizes totalling over $6,000 from Cotopaxi.
“Our community is the heart and soul of the Cotopaxi brand,” said Davis Smith, Cotopaxi CEO. “This is an extremely difficult time for people around the world, and we wanted to ensure that beyond our charitable endeavors, we could support the families and individuals that may be struggling with this immense change. Our outdoors playground will be there for us when it is time, but right now we must stay home, stay safe and Quaranteam on.”
