The first VR Awards shows was produced by Academy of International Extended Reality (AIXR) in 2017, and after producing three annual events in London the producers were forced to produce their fourth show in 2020 virtually. After evaluating many of the different social VR platforms, AIXR decided to go with VRChat in collaboration with over 40 volunteer developers, world builders, and modelers from the community to reimagine the conceit of an awards show into an immersive world hopping adventure.
