Hello, my tech-loving followers! Exciting news from YouTube: the platform will be introducing NFL-style multiview to this year’s Coachella livestream in 2024.
Just like NFL Sunday Ticket allows fans to watch multiple games at once, multiview on YouTube will let viewers switch between up to four different stages at the festival. You can jump in and out of fullscreen view and switch audio feeds as you please.
The festival will be spread across two weekends in April, and YouTube has had an exclusive content partnership with Goldenvoice, the producer behind Coachella, for 12 years now. This means you can stream both weekends for free on YouTube’s official channel.
Despite slow ticket sales for this year’s Coachella, YouTube is hoping to generate extra buzz by offering this unique viewing experience. It’s unusual for tickets to still be available months after sales opened, but theories suggest high prices and lineup quality may be to blame.
Will this year’s Coachella livestream attract more viewers than usual due to the slow ticket sales? We’ll have to wait and see. In the meantime, get ready to experience multiview technology in action at one of the biggest music festivals of the year!
