Premier League team to broadcast first virtual reality match
Burnley FC will offer an immersive VR experience for their preseason friendly against Lazio on August 9.
Fans need Meta Quest VR headsets to access the broadcast through the Premier League's official app, virtually "sitting" in Turf Moor Stadium's stands
This historic first for the Premier League includes:
- Virtual stadium seating
- Live commentary
- Real-time graphics
While Ligue 1 and LALIGA experimented with 360° broadcasts, this marks the first true VR experience where viewers enter a virtual environment
VR sports training leader Rezzil, partnered with the Premier League since 2024, is powering this groundbreaking broadcast
