ARLINGTON, VA – Nationally-syndicated on-air host and TV personality and producer Ryan Seacrest, Grammy award-winner Billie Eilish, and global superstar Dua Lipa will be rocking the first all-digital CES 2021, Jan. 11-14, 2021. These A-list celebrities will be part of an iHeartMedia conference session on how technology has enabled some of today’s hottest artists to continue to create and introduce new music and immersive experiences for their fans during the pandemic. Moderated by Seacrest, the session will feature a fireside chat with singer and songwriter Lipa and a special performance by Eilish on Jan. 12, 2021, at 7 PM EST, available only to registered CES attendees.
Live music venues and studios may have been forced to close their doors given the limitations during the pandemic, but iHeartMedia and leading innovative artists are using technology to redefine the experience and deliver music to their fans in new and exciting ways.
“As we have reimagined CES 2021, we are thrilled to welcome Billie Eilish, Dua Lipa, and Ryan Seacrest to the stage,” Karen Chupka, Executive Vice President, CES, Consumer Technology Association, said. “iHeartMedia has been a driving force with using technology to create immersive music experiences for consumers. Our session with these artists will explore the art of the possible and the transformation that is happening in the entertainment industry.”
“iHeartMedia has always taken pride in our ability to bring artists and fans together, but when the pandemic hit, we had to get even more creative,” said Tom Poleman, Chief Programming Officer for iHeartMedia. “At a time when all of us are searching for ways to feel connected with the music and artists we love while remaining safe, we’re proud to have pushed the limits of technology to innovate and create intimate experiences for music fans nationwide, whether it’s taking our entire roster of iHeartRadio nationally-recognized events virtual or creating one-of-kind shows meant to inspire and support millions of Americans.”
