The Bonnellys, one of the most famous and numerous families in the Dominican Republic, and which currently has more than 130 family branches around the world, will become the first to hold a family reunion in the Metaverse, with members connecting from more than 10 cities around the world.

Bonnelada 2022 will take place on Evveland.com, a metaverse created by a member of the family, technology entrepreneur Rafael Bonnelly Ricart, who explained that the idea arose in order to honor the memory of his grandfather, Rafael Filiberto Bonnelly Fondeur, President of the Dominican Republic 1962-1963, on the day of his 118th birthday.

Since the Bonnellys are scattered around the world, the chosen place is a virtual lunar base that has been installed on Bonnelly.org, and where hundreds of members of this family will meet to honor their ancestors and listen to many of the politicians, lawyers, judges, artists, chefs, filmmakers, engineers, designers, musicians and businessmen who are part of this family, which has more than 200 years of history on the Caribbean island.

While this year’s event is focused on the online experience for attendees, that doesn’t mean the Bonnellys won’t meet up in person. On the contrary, there will be multiple in-person meetings, as several watch parties have been organized.

“It will be a very different Bonnelada from those already held, because for the first time all family members will have the opportunity to attend, no matter where they are,” said Sully Bonnelly, a fashion designer based in New York, who has recorded a video, inviting their relatives to participate in the event.

During the event, members of the family residing in Santo Domingo, Santiago, Punta Cana, Puerto Plata, Samaná, Miami, New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Madrid and New Jersey, among other cities, will participate via the metaverse and videoconference.
