A method for generating a live VR broadcast of a three-dimensional (3D) virtual reality (VR) performance environment is provided. The 3D VR performance environment includes 3D VR avatars corresponding to performers performing on a performance area of a concert space, with the performers being separated by a predetermined distance selected to prevent transmission of airborne pathogens between the performers while performing. The 3D VR avatars are displayed on a VR performance area representing the performance area. The facial expressions and body movements of the 3D VR avatars are synchronized with audio data of the performers. The 3D VR avatars are displayed within the VR performance area at relative locations that appear separated by less than the predetermined distance. Audience devices provide audience feedback data that is outputted in real time to the performers.
