Aside from sharing the show through its social media apps, fans can also get a 180-degree virtual-reality view of the show through Horizon Venues.

At the time of this writing, the legendary rock band has not publicly announced their setlist, but the outlet noted that it would feature a few "rarely-played tracks," including a song that they had never performed in their previous shows as a surprise to fans.

The entire concert will be directed by famed music video director Mark Romanek, who's notable for his previous works like "Speed of Sound" by Coldplay, "Picasso Baby" by Jay-Z, Taylor Swift's "Shake It Off," and many more.

The show is described as a "surreal convergence of physical, fantastical visual elements."

In a statement released by Dave Grohl, the musician noted that his band "loves a challenge," especially playing in massive stages worldwide to "the tiniest clubes to making movies and miniseries."

The former "Nirvana" drummer said they have "pretty much done it all," but they're excited to collaborate with Mark Romanek on "a conceptual set of songs."

The show will begin at 8 p.m. Pacific on February 15, right after Super Bowl finishes. Fans can watch the virtual concert without hassle as it will not have any advertisements or brand sponsorships.

For fans who don't have access to the virtual reality world, they can watch the show through "Foo Fighters" Facebook and Instagram pages, as well as Meta Quest's social media account.

Meta wanted fans to use their immersive "metaverse" to interact with other people using their virtual avatars utilizing the company's Quest VR headsets.

Its Horizon Venues app will feature a virtual lobby where friends can interact with each other before, during, and after the show.

Aside from the concert, fans will also have access to different virtual reality games and many more.
