A free Blackpink concert is coming to VR on Dec. 26
A front-row concert seat is every fan's dream, and Blackpink is making it a (virtual) reality for anyone with a VR headset.
The group will host a free VR concert, "BLACKPINK: A VR Encore," in Meta's Horizon Worlds Music Valley on December 26 at 5 pm PT.
The show will run for 70 minutes, and it won't look like your typical concert film. The event was custom-captured and produced for VR at the band's Born Pink World Tour finale at the Gocheok Sky Dome in Seoul, filmed with on-stage cameras. That means you'll have a better-than-front-row seat to all the fashion, fireworks, and performances of hits like "Pink Venom."
