VRROOM, the leading social XR studio and entertainment Metaverse platform, announces its collaboration in ‘VERSAILLES 400,’ a groundbreaking hybrid concert conceived and performed by electronic music icon Jean-Michel Jarre. Under the prestigious patronage of UNESCO and the French Ministry of Culture, this unique concert-event marks the 400th anniversary of the world heritage site Château de Versailles.

A SHOW SCHEDULED
FOR CHRISTMAS

Scheduled for Christmas Day, December 25, 2023, ‘VERSAILLES 400’ is set to redefine the boundaries of live shows. Jarre, pioneer of electronic music and trailblazer in the realm of large-scale mixed-media concert-events, will deliver a simultaneous performance in the historic Hall of Mirrors and the virtual realm on VRROOM. This innovative approach ensures that audiences worldwide can access and immerse themselves in this unique concert.

Jean-Michel Jarre will don the French LYNX mixed reality headset, leveraging the cutting-edge device to transcend the traditional concert experience. The live audience in the Hall of Mirrors will witness a mesmerizing spectacle, while virtual attendees will join a global audience on VRROOM’s metaverse platform for an interactive and immersive musical experience.

The concert-event will also be airing on prominent French and international TV channels, radio stations, and digital platforms. VRROOM takes the experience to the next level by exclusively releasing a virtual reality version on December 25, providing a unique opportunity for global audiences to engage with this historic event.

Jean-Michel Jarre's vision

Jean-Michel Jarre shares his vision, stating: “I created and designed Versailles 400 from the outset as a hybrid concert and mixed-media visual creation, for live broadcast simultaneously from one of the world’s most iconic monuments, and in virtual reality. I hope the event will help bring the world of French immersive creation and know-how to the forefront of collective culture and global entertainment.”
