French electronic music pioneer Jean-Michel Jarre delivered a mixed reality concert called ‘Versailles 400’ on Christmas Day at the Château de Versailles in France.

The hour-long performance took place in the Hall of Mirrors, where the artist showcased his talent while wearing a mixed-reality headset on an elevated platform. At the same time, Jarre’s performance was broadcast in the metaverse, reaching a virtual reality audience in a replica of the room.

Versailles 400 is a hybrid creation, a concert-show broadcast live from one of the most beautiful places in the world, as well as in virtual reality in the metaverse which, I hope, will help to promote our expertise and further inscribe the sphere of French immersive creation within our collective culture”, Jarre commented on a statement.

The concert represents UNESCO’s efforts to connect electronic music with historically significant locations.
