Do Ridiculous hasn't added a story.
It’s time to rethink well-being. To make fitness fun and make mental wellness more approachable. Because being fit is beyond strength and appearance, it requires us to take action on our mental, emotional, social, spiritual and functional health too.
We are emporing people to love better how they think, feel, act, look, function and dream by connecting them with information, inspiration, insights and innovations . We are doing this by merging humor, entertainment and actionable gamified wellness strategies alongside an immersive 3D virtual festival and education platform.
The Do Ridiculous Universe
The Do Ridiculous Universe is a cutting-edge ecosystem and gamified virtual platform where wellness, storytelling, entertainment and technology intersect.
Designed to engage audiences through humor, creativity, and actionable insights, this immersive space offers interactive missions, challenges, and rewards that make well-being an enjoyable journey. Inspired by the sci-fi comedy series The Ridiculous, the platform integrates elements of gaming, animation, and community-building to captivate underserved audiences, including gamers, sci-fi enthusiasts, and fantasy fans.
With a trilogy of trilogies, audiobooks, and animated content as its foundation, The Ridiculous Universe creates endless opportunities for strategic integration through brand placements, product showcases, and interactive storytelling.
It’s a dynamic environment where health meets fun, offering partners a unique way to connect with global audiences through books, audiobooks, animated shorts & videos along with cutting-edge virtual experiences.
Featuring: The FAME Reunion Festival
The FAME Reunion Festival is a landmark event that celebrates the convergence of fitness pioneers, influencers, and enthusiasts with a focus on innovation, community, and inspiration, taking place in both a cutting edge 3D immersive virtual space along with in-person red-carpet events.

With a robust following of industry pioneers, influencers, athletes, wellness professionals, fitness enthusiasts and fans, the festival is set to reach millions through live events and virtual platforms.
Attendees will engage in fun events and performances, workshops, seminars, and showcases featuring cutting-edge wellness products, actionable insights, and authentic role models, including The ‘Hall of FAME’, featuring industry stars and icons.
For strategic partners, the festival offers unparalleled opportunities for visibility and collaboration through branded spaces, live product experiences, and networking with key influencers in the industry.
