Spirits across Spain to be uplifted for music lovers as Apple confirms it has bought NextVR which builds software for people to attend virtual live concerts.

The software puts users inside sporting events, concerts and other live events.

The coronavirus pandemic has hit the festival scene hard with events cancelled, leaving artists, fans and event organisers waiting to find out how the the live music industry can move forward.

A virtual live concert would mean music-lovers could enjoy events from their homes during lockdown.
