DigiFest will be a big step up from last year, and it looks like this year it will be a 6 hour show instead of the 2-3 hour show of the past. This year will also showcase the company’s expansion outside of just music-focused YouTube channels, as the company is focusing on providing unique entertainment to YouTube fans in North America. DigiFest will have a gamer and fashion village as the show tries to expand into different verticals with a focus on interactive and immersive content. More details will be announced in the coming weeks right here first on NewMediaRockstars!
