The popular Bushwick music venue and art space, Elsewhere, is opening up a second location tonight for a coronavirus relief benefit concert. The free music festival starts at 6 p.m. and the headliner American Football is sheduled to play their set at 11:20 p.m.. This is a virtual show, hosted on Mincraft servers where builders have created a replica of the Bushwick Elsewhere venue. The main show is free but VIP passes will be available shortly before the event for $5. The Elsewhere event page states that VIP passes get you, “access to special VIP areas in-game, exclusive in-game merch, and access to the VIP areas in Discord, where you can talk directly with the artists and with [the elsewhere team].”
The show is presented by Virtual organizers Open Pit, who have put together previous Minecraft festivals like “Coalchella” and “Fire Festival.
