More Than A Party.
It's A Mission.
THE DROP celebrates the GTA VI launch, but it's about more than one night. Every sponsorship dollar raised goes toward Skills Lab — High Point Gamer's flagship youth technology deployment.
Skills Lab gives the next generation of gamers, creators, and developers hands-on access to professional-grade gaming rigs, content studios, robotics labs, and real career pathways — for many kids, their first time ever touching this kind of technology. Sponsoring this event means your brand funds that access directly.

This Isn't
Passive Branding
The activation continues working long after the event ends. Every clip, every interview, every repost keeps your brand in the conversation.
Direct Audience Engagement
Live interaction with 250+ in-person attendees and thousands of digital viewers — people who are actively engaged, not passively scrolling.
Social Amplification
Video clips, interviews, branded moments, and influencer content that generates organic reposts well beyond the event itself.
Authentic Positioning
Not a billboard. A genuine integration into one of the year's most talked-about cultural moments. Gamer audiences respect that difference.
Community Goodwill
Sponsoring a community-driven event builds lasting brand equity with an audience that values support for their culture.
Get In
The Room
Four levels of partnership built for different goals and budgets. Every tier puts your brand in front of Tampa's most engaged gaming and creator audience.
Produced by High Point Gamer — the organization behind Skills Lab HQ, Tampa's gaming and creator infrastructure hub.

Our Partners
Built By People
Who Get It
High Point Gamer isn't an event company. We're a gaming and digital media infrastructure organization — and we've spent years building the systems, relationships, and community trust that make activations like this actually work.
When you partner with HPG, your brand doesn't just get a logo placement. You get access to a community that's been cultivated, a production team that knows how to capture moments, and an organization with the credibility to make your presence mean something.
Proven at Scale
We've produced esports events at major venues and built infrastructure that connects brands directly to gaming culture — not around it.
Real Community Reach
Deep roots with schools, nonprofits, creators, and local organizations. Our audience shows up because they trust us — and that trust transfers to the brands we bring in.
Content That Lives On
We don't just run events — we capture them. Every activation generates video, social content, and brand moments that keep performing after the night ends.
Secure Your Spot
We're seeking title sponsors, media partners, giveaway sponsors, celebrity hosts, community vendors, and creator collaborators. Fill out the form and we'll be in touch within 48 hours.
