K-pop sensation BLACKPINK announced their groundbreaking virtual reality concert on November 15. In collaboration with Meta (formerly Facebook) and The Diamond Bros, known for their Emmy Award-winning productions, BLACKPINK is set to give their devoted fans, BLINKs, a special treat in December.

The upcoming BLACKPINK Virtual Reality concert aims to recreate the magic of the group’s memorable final performance at Seoul’s Gocheok Sky Dome during their BORN PINK world tour. What makes this event truly special is its alignment with Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg’s vision of creating a virtual space. In this digital realm, users can explore and interact in real time through their avatars.

This innovative concert experience will be available exclusively in virtual reality within Meta Horizon Worlds’ Music Valley. Owners of Meta Quest VR headsets in select regions will have a front-row seat to the action, marking a significant leap in merging cutting-edge technology with entertainment. The performances will feature not only BLACKPINK’s Billboard Hot 100 hits but also solo acts from Jisoo, Jennie, Rosé, and Lisa.

BLACKPINK expressed their excitement about venturing into the world of VR, emphasizing their enthusiasm for connecting with a global audience in a new and immersive way. The members conveyed that this VR concert is more than just a show; it’s an extension of the heartfelt effort they put into their tour. BLACKPINK looks forward to fans experiencing this enchanting collaboration with The Diamond Bros and Meta, expressing gratitude to their dedicated BLINKs for their unwavering support.

Titled ‘BLACKPINK: A VR Encore,’ the concert will run for approximately 70 minutes and premiere in virtual reality on December 26 at 5 pm PT. For those who miss the live broadcast, replays will be available for one month.

In related news, recent changes to BLACKPINK’s official profiles on YG Entertainment’s website have sparked speculation about the group’s future with the agency. While the profiles remain unchanged, negotiations for new contracts are ongoing following the expiration of their previous agreements, though no definitive confirmation has been provided yet.
