Passes to VRLA 2018, the world’s largest immersive and transformative technology expo, are now on sale! Experience how VR, AR, and other emergent technologies are creating a positive new future for the world on May 4th and 5th, at the Los Angeles Convention Center. This year’s expo will feature hundreds of tech demos, educational sessions, presentations, and groundbreaking product launches from the most innovative technology companies shaping our world today. VRLA is open to consumers, tech enthusiasts, and industry professionals alike, with passes starting at $30.

“Excitement for VR and AR has never been solely about immersive headsets. It’s rooted in a deeper desire to better understand ourselves and reality itself, aligned with a new generation of technologies capable of raising the collective consciousness,” said Cosmo Scharf, Co-Founder of VRLA. “With this year’s theme, ‘A New Reality,’ we’re expanding the expo’s scope beyond VR and AR to explore new ways emergent technology improves our lives in and out of the headset. New verticals include AI, internet of things, robotics, blockchain, 3D printing, alternative energy, cryptocurrency, biotech, and more.”

Additionally, attendees can look forward to next-gen haptics, VR arcades, 360-cameras, motion simulators, 3D scanners, and the latest in CG and VFX technology across the show floor.

“We’re thrilled to offer attendees even more ways to taste the future and open a conversation about how technology can help us manifest the reality we deserve,” said Scharf.

After nearly four years, VRLA has grown exponentially from a 100-person meetup group in 2014 into a two-day expo attracting 12,000 plus tech fans from around the world. For more information, please visit http://virtualrealityla.com/
