\n\t\t\t\t\n\n\t\tDigital agency DEPT\u00ae is collaborating with Rotterdam Festivals and entertainment agency Tribe Company to create a groundbreaking virtual experience; the first of its kind in the history of the Eurovision Song Contest. The custom-made 3D world will bring the tens of thousands of visitors, who would normally have travelled to Rotterdam for the contest, a unique, virtual experience.\t<\/h2>\n\n\n\t\tFans from all over the globe can immerse themselves in the vibrancy of\u00a0Eurovision<\/a>\u00a0without leaving the comfort of their sofas. A more accessible front-seat experience has opened the song contest and the social gatherings surrounding it to a wider, more diverse audience to celebrate together, day and night. The programme of events includes crowd-pullers such as Johnny Logan, Afrojack, and the Junior Song Festival.

Renske Satijn, Director of\u00a0Rotterdam Festivals<\/a>: \u201cWe are extremely proud of the very first online Eurovision Village and the versatile programme. Everyone is welcome, and we are open 24\/7, free of charge. I am happy that with the help of a next-level event experience it is also possible to give visitors a festival feeling through a mix of performances, tours and content that you won\u2019t want to miss. It is a special project, and one that we were able to accomplish at a rapid pace together with the DEPT\u00ae and\u00a0Tribe Company<\/a>\u00a0team.\u201d

The 3D festival map is designed for an international audience to meet each other, enjoy performances, dance together and get make-up tips to complete their best Eurovision look. The festival\u2019s electric atmosphere will transfer through as party-goers can virtually cruise Rotterdam, wander through iconic places, and feel the vibe of the city.\u00a0

\u201cSince Corona, we have started to focus more on magical, virtual event solutions that really connect people,\u201d says Dimi Albers, CEO at DEPT\u00ae. \u201cFor example, we organised our own\u00a0virtual festival<\/a>, built the digital inspiration day for bol.com, and an online campus for Avans University of Applied Sciences. Eurovision Village with millions of viewers is proof that with big thinking, even the most legendary events can be transformed into digital.\u201d Niel van Hoff, CEO of Tribe Company, adds: \u201cAfter livestream events for the general public like \u2018De Vrienden van Amstel LIVE\u2019 and \u2018The Streamers\u2019, we have focused further on the experience and the possibilities to bring offline events to life using technology.\u201d
