The users will then schedule and experience a pre-recorded concert, which can then be experienced either solo or with co-presence. \u2018\u2019STAGE2U\u2019 also presents users with agency, allowing for solo consumers to design their own setlist \u2013 providing them with their own personalised experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The experience will begin with a starting scene outside of an arena, with a car seen driving into the venue.
