VR WORLD® NYC X SHELTER VR CLUB ANNOUNCE THE WORLD'S FIRST PORTAL CLUB NIGHT

New York, NY - April 15, 2022 - VR World® NYC, the largest virtual reality club in the US and Shelter VR, the largest online night club announced the World's First music Club Night that will bring New Yorkers and global clubbers together on May 7, 2022

Virtual reality is revolutionizing how humanity experiences the world. While the metaverse can feel somewhat dystopian, VR World Shelter Experience fuses the new virtual worlds with physical reality to produce a new entertainment concept that hovers on the cutting-edge of both.

"I fell in love with VR storytelling in 2017. It expanded into immersive art and music. Putting up the world's first music portal feels new and exciting. Go Humanverse!" said Angelika Lee, co-founder.

Once we're in the space we're human, but also somehow more. We are suddenly able to experience the sensation of full technological immersion where we become the very avatars we have only ever before perceived on the flatness of our screens. Digital technology is now occupiable, interactive and immersive.
At the Portal Club Night, we get to experience the best of both worlds - the physical relief from everyday life outside, and the hypnotic, swaying, chromatic pixilation of the digital experience and infinite horizon of global connections.

VR World partnered with United Talent Agency to produce a line-up worthy of this pioneering event. Global phenomenon MUST DIE! is known for his forward-thinking sounds and devastatingly powerful discography and is taking a break from headlining tours in North America, Europe, Asia, and Australia to provide the sound for the event.

James Campbell from Shelter VR stated "MUST DIE! is on the forefront of bringing events to a digital space, upon the release of his debut album "Crisis Vision" the release event was hosted in VR with Shelter and available to a global audience. We are beyond excited to bring him back after non-stop sold out shows and festivals to bring in the next step in nightlife experiences."

Leo Tsimmer, CEO and co-founder at VR World, says: "An entertainment brand that thinks of itself as brick-and-mortar or digital-only is a brand of yesterday. A modern brand looks to seamlessly travel between IRL and Digital, giving consumers a choice of how, when and where they want to engage, transact and have fun. We are building a community powerhouse for local and global audiences alike. VR World Anytime Anywhere will deliver just that."

While at VR World our physical bodies are nourished by sounds, lights, supple furnishings, refreshments and the shared experiences of music and community, our minds are invited to enter the alternative worlds that we can only experience through the undiscovered countries of Virtual Reality. Welcome to the future of entertainment, where IRL and Virtual meet for a club experience like nothing else. Welcome to VR World Shelter Nights!
