Vevo is offering another way to catch the iTunes Festival live starting tonight.
In a partnership with Apple, the popular music site will stream all performances through its free iOS app and Apple TV channel. Interestingly, Mac Safari users can even get in on the action by heading to Vevo’s website.
Spanning five days, the festival will welcome a number of popular artists including Imagine Dragons, Kendrick Lamar, Keith Urban, and many more. Coldplay will headline tonight’s action and will hit the stage at 10 p.m. CT.
After usually holding the event in London, this is the first time an iTunes Festival has come to the United States.
Along with Vevo’s site and app, music fans can see a live stream of the show from Apple's dedicated Apple TV channel, directly from iTunes, or from the recently updated iTunes Festival app.
The app is universal and designed for the iPhone/iPod touch and iPad/iPad mini. It can be downloaded now on the App Store for free.
