All the Live Streams You Can Watch in VR This Summer on Oculus Sites

Posted on June 3, 2018 by resourcefulman

If you own an Oculus Go or Samsung Gear VR, this summer you can watch concerts, sports, comedy and more live from the comfort of your couch. This week, Oculus Venues is an app that lets you watch live events in virtual reality from your “best place in the house”.

The series kicked off with a Vance Joy concert last Thursday, but has a pretty solid line-up all summer that includes a wide variety of different things to check out. For example, this Monday you can watch School Night! Live from Hollywood, but on Wednesday the app will offer live coverage of Giants vs. the Diamondbacks.

As for whether you want to do it or not, your experience may be different. I personally watched several Netflix shows in a kind of virtual living room using my Gear VR. It was fun the first time around, but for longer programs I found it frustrating to wear the headset. That said, if you have a VR headset and have been looking for fun ways to use it, this could be the (virtual) ticket.

Here’s a complete list of what’s available. More events are expected to be added over the summer and some of them may not be available to you depending on where you live:
