NextVR + Live Nation = Live Virtual Reality Concerts and Events

The Live broadcast VR firm NextVR  announced a major collaboration with Live Nation. NextVR specializes in professional virtual reality live streaming in the sports world, bringing live sporting events like golf, boxing into virtual reality. Now the company is partnering with Live Nation to “broadcast hundreds of live, cutting-edge performances in virtual reality to music fans worldwide.”


I am sure event like this will need big computer power and professional set up and most venues are not heard up for virtual reality which is why NextVr is a great option for major concerts and events.

“Live stereoscopic VR requires a lot of compute horsepower,” Ryan Sheridan, NextVR’s senior vice president for Imaging and Production Technologies said. “With the truck, we will not be encumbered by the venue or audio limitations in the venue from which we are broadcasting. We simply roll up, deploy our equipment, plug into the infrastructure and produce the content.”


NextVR has done a few events already like Coldplay’s concert, NBA Games, Golf Tournament and even the Democratic debate. You can experience NextVr using the app the Samsung Gear VR headset
