For the first time, fans can now enjoy Imagine Dragons in Virtual Reality!

There might come a time when we no longer have to physically attend concerts to see our favorite artists perform. All we’ll have to do is simply throw on our VR headsets and be instantly transported to venues across the world.

Sound too good to be true? Or maybe you hate the idea of never seeing music live again (I slightly loathe it).

Either way, the future of concert experiences is here, thanks to Imagine Dragons and brands like CITI and LiveNation.

Last week, Los Angeles hosted a special intimate performance at the Belasco Theater, kicking off a series of concerts that will be broadcast to the world in VR. Fans will also have a chance to download exclusive behind the scenes footage.

While we may be a long time from transporting ourselves into the atmosphere of a live show, Imagine Dragons are setting the stage for the future of music tech.
