Citi, Live Nation, and NextVR unveiled that Imagine Dragons, Lady Antebellum, Third Eye Blind and Prince Royce will each broadcast one of their upcoming concerts, for the first time, in virtual reality. Through cutting-edge technology, fans will be transported into an unprecedented concert experience, providing up-close-and-personal access to some of the summer’s hottest shows.

In addition, fans will have rare access to behind-the-scenes footage, in virtual reality, via the “Backstage with Citi” series.
