Apple Music streaming Harry Styles concert on Friday in live performance push

Apple Music will livestream some major artist concerts as part of Apple Music Live. This new feature kicks off with a Harry Styles concert Friday, alongside the release of his third album, Harry’s House.

Apple Music subscribers in 167 countries can watch the live shows at no extra cost. From Apple Music:

No matter how hard an artist works in the studio to create music, the best place for them to showcase their talent is on stage. Apple Music Live is a new recurring series designed to do just that: give the biggest stars in music the biggest possible platform to flaunt how they connect with audiences and how their songs translate to live performance.

The Harry Styles concert, One night only in New York ,, will take place at UBS Arena on Long Island, New York. Within Apple Music, fans can check out an interview with Harry from Zane Lowe on the making of Harry’s House. There’s also a link to pre-add the album to your library as well as playlists featuring the Sign of the Times singer.

You can watch One Night Only in New York live at 9 p.m. ET on Friday. If that time doesn’t work for you, there are going to be encore streams at noon Eastern Time on May 22 and 5 a.m. ET on May 26. Engadget reached out to Apple to ask if the concert would be available on-demand afterward.

An Apple spokesperson stated that the company had “nothing else to announce” at the moment.

9to5Mac’s Take

While this feature is new, this isn’t Apple’s first rodeo in the concert livestreaming space. Back in 2007, it ran the iTunes Festival in the UK and brought it to the US in 2014. A few years later, the company decided to end the festival. This one might be worth a look for me, Harry Styles fan. The service offers more value for money – even if it’s not possible to afford the concert, it’s fine! You can attend one from the comfort of your home.
