What is MusicVket?
MusicVket is a comprehensive music event to be held in the Metaverse space, which was born in 2020 based on the strong desire of music creators and artists not to lose the opportunity to present their works amid the continuing cancellation of various events in the Corona Disaster, and on users' requests to hold a virtual event with music as its theme.
MusicVket is characterized by the fact that even those without VR equipment can easily enjoy the event, and during the event period, participation is free of charge and available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

After passing through the entrance of the venue, 375 circle booths will be spread out in a "Chill Space" that resembles the inside of a building in a near-future city. The general exhibitors will have listening booths in a virtual space that can be enjoyed visually, and participants will be able to listen to and purchase music while interacting with each other in a relaxed atmosphere.
