As part of a one-off initiative organised in partnership with beIN SPORTS USA, visitors to the PSG Store in New York got the chance to dive into the world of Paris Saint-Germain thanks to Xtadium, the virtual reality platform developed by YBVR°.
Paris Saint-Germain has just broken new ground in terms of innovation and closeness to its fans on the other side of the Atlantic. As the only European club with its own official store in New York, PSG recently gave its supporters an unprecedented immersion experience that combined cutting-edge technology with a passion for football.
FULL IMMERSION IN THE WORLD OF Paris Saint-Germain
Participants were able to:
-
watch matches live in virtual reality, as if they were in the stands themselves
-
relive the best moments with 360° replays
-
go behind the scenes with exclusive VR access
-
try their luck in a contest to win official Paris Saint-Germain shirts
The event also hosted specialists from Meta, who had come along to help the participants get to grips with this immersive technology and to share their expertise regarding the use of VR in sport.
A PASSIONATE FAN BASE comes together IN New York
Several US-based fan clubs and content creators had made the trip to NYC in order to enjoy this unique experience and to discuss their shared passion for Paris Saint-Germain, and the club would like to thank all of the participants for their presence, their enthusiasm and their curiosity throughout a day that was firmly dedicated to innovation.
