The best way to watch all your favorite shows and sports
Between the International Champions Cup or your favorite sporting team having a match, watching live events in VR can be quite rewarding. We all wish we could make it out to the stadiums and fields our favorite performers are in, but sometimes that's just not in the cards. But, don't you worry, the other option you have is to watch your favorite shows and sports in VR. Here you can feel like you're actually in the crowd without having to spend hundreds of dollars on tickets.

YouTube live events
Another option you have for live events on both the PlayStation VR and your Oculus Go is on YouTube. For PlayStation VR you'll want to download the app to watch your videos. For the Oculus Go all you need to do is go to the browser.
To can find amazing live content at any time all you have to do is type "Live Stream" in the search bar. Make sure you subscribe to your favorite live streamers so you'LL be notified the next time they're live!
PlayStation VR
Besides NextVR or Youtube, which is available to both PSVR and Oculus Go, there are a few exclusives to PlayStation that are worth checking out. Here's all the information you'll need to find the best live events that are exclusive to your PlayStation VR.
PlayStation Vue
Did you know that PlayStation Vue is compatible with your PSVR? Aside from the normal TV channels Vue also offers a variety of live sports. It's got everything you could need, including ESPN, ESPN2, Showtime (sports), FOX Soccer Plus, CBS Sports Network, ESPN channels, NFL Network, MLB Network, NBA TV, Big Ten Network (BTN), and Eleven Sports.
While PlayStation Vue doesn't have custom content like NextVR you can still find quite a bit of great things to watch. If you're already subscribed to Vue for your PlayStation make sure you take advantage of its full potential by using it with your VR headset!
Oculus Go
Here's all the information on the exclusive apps for Oculus Go when it comes to watching live events. Over at Oculus they seem to be taking a priority in bringing the community together. One of the fears when it comes to VR is that you'll wrap yourself in this new world and forget the people outside. Now you don't need to worry about that. Oculus Venues is an absolute game changer when it comes to live streaming events in VR.
Oculus Venues
Oculus Venues is the most fun you'll have watching live events in VR. This app puts you in the crowd with other viewers using the same app so you don't have to watch alone (there are options for that if you want to). That means you'll have a seat in a stadium with other people for you to give commentary, cheer, and chat during the events. People across the world are watching the same shows as you, so why not watch together?
