Bored in Isolation? Check Out All Virtual Concerts You Can Tune Into

There’s hardly anyone or anything that hasn’t felt the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic around the world. Lives and habits have been transformed in ways that were unimaginable just a couple of months ago. This includes entertainment. For years, music festivals, virtual concerts, and live performances have been a major attraction for fans and tourists all over the world. However, all these events have been canceled keeping in mind the risk of large crowds and gatherings.

But that hasn’t stopped these events from choosing a different medium to keep fans entertained. All major artists and bands have turned to virtual concerts through audio and video streams to “keep the show going”. These virtual concerts can be accessed easily through major platforms like Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Twitch, and Discord.

Some of these virtual concerts are available for free, while others require some form of payment. Similarly, some of these shows can be viewed anonymously while others require users to subscribe and register.

Hence, to make it easy for you here is a complete and comprehensive list of all major virtual concerts and performances being live-streamed based on their date, timing, genre, performing artist, as well as the link to where the show can be viewed:
