A new free virtual reality music festival was announced a few days ago, resulting from the collaboration of two well-known augmented reality and metaverse platforms: Over the Reality and Decentraland.
Over the Reality (OVR), the well-known Augmented Reality (AR) platform, is officially partnering with Decentraland for the 2022 Metaverse Music Festival.
Decentraland is a browser-based 3D virtual world platform where users can purchase virtual land in the platform as NFTs using the MANA cryptocurrency, which uses the Ethereum blockchain.
Designers can then create and sell clothing and accessories for virtual worlds or avatars in virtual worlds.
OVR co-founder and CEO Davide Cuttini said:
“Our partnership with Decentraland represents the future of virtual and physical events, allowing users to experience the best live events through Metaverse’s additional features, information and technology. We’re excited to offer our users the ability to watch their favorite artists live opportunities, as well as the opportunity to explore user experiences tailored for social interaction through AR.”
Festivals involving these two meta-realities will be fully interactive.
What would a virtual reality music festival in the Decentraland metaverse look like?
For the first time, augmented reality technology will allow fans of music festivals, especially of the house music and disco music genres, to attend the festival in complete comfort, without the need for tickets or headphones, with a high-tech user experience and, most importantly, comfort.
With cyberpunk and natural landscapes as the backdrop, the festival will feature up to 15 uniquely designed stages, performances by more than 100 music artists, and especially a new interactive experience in a virtual world.
Decentraland creative director Sam Hamilton said:
“The latest title set should look like a futuristic city abandoned for 100 years.”
Artists at the Metaverse Music Festival
From November 10th to 13th, the OVR stage will feature a host of artists, as well as celebrities such as Ozzy Osbourne, Dillon Francis (who will host the festival), SNH48 and Spottie WiFi.
