For this year’s festival, audience members were offered a truly immersive experience via Royole-X’s virtual reality (VR). The headsets are the world’s first foldable smart mobile theatre devices.
The annual music festival, first staged in 2003, has been attracting music fans to the beaches of Zhuhai for more than a decade.
