Though the club's main room and outdoor area have been designed to match the iconic location, fans will have the opportunity to experience the environment under the lens of Okuda San Miguel, whose work adds a colorful, surrealist flare to the landscape, allowing everyone to experience the club like never before. Attendees have the opportunity to customize their avatars and mingle with guests at the event, all powered by social VR platform Sansar.

The event kicks off at 9AM PT (12PM ET) on Saturday, November 28th. Fans looking to tune in to the virtual debut of elrow via livestream through the event's  social media channels.
