The show will go on for 11 obscure music festivals this summer despite the dangers of COVID-19. Just how? The only attendees will be teeny tiny ants.<\/p>\n

Aptly dubbed Antyfest, the musical performances \u2014 played by musicians from their own homes \u2014 are streamed via iPad to their \u201caudience\u201d of insects. The screens are then placed inside miniature replicas of the real-life venues where the festivals would have happ<\/a>ened throughout the world.<\/p>\n

The buggy scene will be streamed on YouTube<\/a> so viewers can tune in and watch the roughly 8,000 ants \u201cdance\u201d for free. Set to broadcast on Sunday, the production will start with one five-hour live stage performance of Russia\u2019s Ural Music Night at 10 a.m. EST, and the other 10 are prerecorded performances that will be shown at 3 p.m. EST.<\/p>\n

The videos were all shot in the forest near a cluster of four ant nests. The crew then attracted the suddenly popular six-legged worker insects to the stages by putting food all over the miniatures. The ants were then released back into the wild and \u201cnobody got hurt,\u201d said press spokeswoman Sofya Kuchkina.<\/p>\n

For the live performances, farm-grown ants will \u201cbe listening and partying\u201d to the music in a controlled environment, she added.<\/p>\n

The zany idea was put in motion by organizers of the Ural Music Night, who saw an opportunity to bring some happiness to their fans.<\/p>\n

\u201cCOVID-19 has forced the world\u2019s music festivals to cancel or postpone until further notice. Ural Music Night was no exception,\u201d said Natalia Shmelkova, the executive director of Ural Music Night, which is normally held in Ekaterinburg, Russia. \u201cDespite this, we had the idea to unite people, music and concerts with Antyfest, a macro-festival of festivals.\u201d<\/p>\n

Instead, they decided to give their followers a new kind of experience.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe secured the site plans and lineups for all these festivals and have re-created in detail, scale replicas of the experience that would have taken place should these festivals have gone ahead,\u201d said Shmelkova. \u201cThis will provide our viewers with a brand new virtual and fully immersive experience in the company of ants.\u201d<\/p>\n

Other festivals taking part in the performance include: Blue Bird (Austria), Busan Rock Festival (South Korea), International Music Showcase Festival (Israel), Lagos International Jazz Festival (Nigeria), Le Guess Who? (Netherlands), Pohoda Fest (Slovakia), Stereoleto (Russia), Summer Sound (Latvia), Terminal Music & Arts Festival (Serbia) and V-Rox (\u201cVladivostok Rock\u201d in Russia).<\/p>\n

Musical artists will perform a range of genres from alternative rock and pop to electronic. Well-known French DJ duo Ofenbach as well as Israeli singer Noga Erez will also perform.\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
