The social media giant turned the Fair Market in Austin, Texas into a real-life Facebook account with various stations representing profile features including a hi-fidelity music lounge featuring albums from Taylor Swift, Lady GagaThe Weeknd, Miley Cyrus and other recording stars. The event also featured live performances.

“Whatever you’re interested in, there are people on Facebook who can help you find and do more of it,” Facebook CEO Tom Alison explained during Facebook IRL. “Our vision is to make it easy to discover that content and those people. Ultimately, that’s what Facebook is for. We’ve been helping people explore their interests and discover new things for years.”

“Facebook is building the best technology to help you discover the content and connections that are right for you,” he continued. “We’ve invested heavily in building state-of-the-art AI systems that can serve the most interesting content to people around the world.”

New features include a local tab, which brings together content from Reels, Marketplace, groups and events on Facebook, and Facebook Explore, which lets you dive even deeper into your interests.

“It’s tailored around your broad interests and lets you learn and do more with them,” Alison said of Facebook Local. “What’s unique about Explore is that it provides recommendation algorithms that are less focused on entertaining content and a little more focused on finding authentic and practical content that will be useful to you.”

Facebook Local is currently testing in Austin, New York City, Los Angeles, Washington DC, Chicago, Dallas, Houston, Charlotte, Phoenix and San Francisco.

Messenger Communities, another new feature, offers a new way for communities to “connect over shared interests and topic-based chats.” according to the company.

Other new features include an upgraded full-screen video tab that gives Reels a more prominent position, posts with AI comment summaries that you can read instead of scrolling through comments, and Matchmaker, a new Facebook Dating feature that you can use to let your friends to “swipe for potential matches on your behalf.”

With Facebook’s Weekly and Weekend Digest for Events feature, you can find the best concerts, music festivals and other events in your area and share them with your Facebook friends or groups “to find someone to join,” Alison noted.

The company also added music and mentions to Notes in Messenger, and a new feature that lets you invite your Instagram followers to events you’ve created on Facebook — regardless of whether they have a Facebook account.

Facebook’s new profile features were announced before Meta Quest S3 ($299) will be released on October 15. Meta Quest S3 is available at major retailers such as Amazon, Walmart, CASE and that Meta store.
