Paris Saint-Germain and beIN SPORTS come together to bring live Ligue 1 matches in VR to US fans | OneFootball

Paris Saint-Germain continues to innovate, offering its fans increasingly cutting-edge experiences. The club is proud to announce the launch of an exclusive immersive room on Xtadium, the leading platform for immersive sports experiences, in partnership with beIN SPORTS, the official broadcaster of Ligue 1 in the U.S.

Available exclusively in the U.S. for this initial pilot, the initiative brings PSG matches to life in virtual reality, offering fans a revolutionary way to experience live soccer, amplified further by beIN SPORTS in North America.

With this launch, PSG becomes the first European club to introduce such a feature, reinforcing its status as the club of the new generation.

For the first time ever, PSG fans can watch three live matches from the club’s 2024/25 Ligue 1 season in VR, experiencing the action as if they were sitting pitch-side at the Parc des Princes. This unique experience puts supporters at the heart of the game, allowing them to feel every moment from an entirely new perspective.

Three Live Matches Up Close to the Action:

- February 7, 2025: Paris Saint-Germain vs. Monaco- March 16, 2025: Paris Saint-Germain vs. Marseille- May 17, 2025: Paris Saint-Germain vs. Auxerre (the final Ligue 1 match of the season)

Beyond live matches, the immersive room will also feature 2D highlights of PSG’s home games, allowing fans to relive key moments. Exclusive behind-the-scenes content, including training sessions, celebrations, and interviews, will be added soon, offering an unprecedented look at the club’s inner workings and a deeper connection to the players.

Jerry Newman, Chief Innovation and Digital Officer, Paris Saint-Germain, said: “Innovation is at the core of Paris Saint-Germain’s DNA, and we are proud to be the first European club to offer this immersive experience, delivering live Ligue 1 matches in VR to our U.S. fanbase. This collaboration with Xtadium and beIN SPORTS allows us to bring our US fans closer to the excitement of PSG’s biggest matches.”

Antonio Briceno, Managing Director, U.S. & Canada beIN SPORTS, said: “As the official broadcaster of Ligue 1 in the U.S. and Canada, we are thrilled to partner with Paris Saint-Germain and Xtadium on this first-of-its-kind project. beIN is a long-standing advocate of French football and we are very proud to be curating these broadcasts, bringing a unique experience for first-timers and existing fans of Ligue 1. The experience will be fully immersive, bringing pitch-side action with seamless experience - further cementing beIN’s commitment to innovation and exploring new opportunities for world-class coverage in North America.”

Héctor Prieto, CEO, Xtadium said: 'We are incredibly excited to partner with such a great soccer team to bring this new room to life. Our goal is to create a space where fans can immerse themselves in the world of soccer, experiencing the thrill and passion of the game in a whole new way.'
