Music virtual reality company MelodyVR will be hosting a panel on Tuesday 15th August at the inaugural Edinburgh Digital Entertainment Festival at 2pm at The George Hotel.

Description of panel:
When it comes to music, virtual reality will change the industry with its ability to disrupt how fans connect with the artists they love. People will be able to attend a gig anywhere in the world without worry of price tags or age restrictions and sold out events will no longer mean missing out on performances. New vantage points that allow you on stage with the world’s biggest bands, backstage at a festival or in a DJ booth at an Ibiza superclub are no longer off limits. So how will this really affect the fans, artist, labels and promoters?
Join the founders of virtual reality music platform Melody VR, as they host an exciting panel of speakers from across the music industry to focus on this new technology and consider what it means for the future of the music scene.

Anthony Matchett, Founder MelodyVR
