The music scene in social VR builds some of the largest and most loyal communities on these platforms.
The scene is growing in two directions: from the physical world into VR, and from VR back into the physical world. We’ll talk to two organizers who represent each path:
Breno Valli recreated a real club from São Paulo and gave it a parallel life in VRChat.
Shadola started with Metronom Bar, a small virtual bar, and now runs Metronom, an annual offline festival for 250 people.
We’ll discuss:
– what makes organizing live shows in VR different
– how a community actually forms around a virtual stage
– the challenges organizers face
– practical tech tips: what you need to perform in VRChat yourself, or to host other artists
The session ends with a live music performance.
