Tennessee Performing Arts Center Selected for First U.S. Residency Of Innovative Yoop eSpace

NASHVILLE, TN – Oct. 21, 2020 – Yoop, an entertainment company empowering fans and creators through live events, is bringing its Yoop eSpace – a first-of-its-kind eConcert experience and interactive way to attend events – to Nashville, selecting Tennessee Performing Arts Center  for its first U.S. expansion.

Currently located in TPAC’s Jackson Hall, the Yoop eSpace creates a zero-lag, two-way visual and audio communication experience for fans and creators when interacting with each other – no matter how large the audience.

The Yoop eSpace is creating a new class of live entertainment. Studying consumer behavior in virtual environments is the foundation of the technology, which has been in development for more than two years as a solution to supplement live concerts, not replace them.

Yoop launched its first Yoop eSpace in Montreal earlier in 2020, returning people to work by activating 2,300 music industry jobs. After several years of development, Yoop prioritized the eSpace launch in light of the COVID-19 climate. With the debut of the Yoop eSpace Nashville, several local entertainment crews have been reactivated, including REACH, Silent House Productions and Solotech.

The Yoop eSpace format can be modified by their type of content, whether they are event producers, artists, teams, athletes, speakers or corporate presenters. Events may be customized to be public or private and set to a specific or unlimited capacity. They can also be set up as pay on-demand and with the option of 24-hour replay.

To learn more about Yoop eSpace booking opportunities, contact REACH at yoop@reachnash.com.
