Avenged Sevenfold Pioneers Blockchain 'Season Pass' to Reward Fans with NFTs, Unreleased Tracks and Meet-and-Greets

Avenged Sevenfold launched Season Pass, a decentralized platform that rewards fans for participating in band-related activities. It's like Fortnite's battle pass but for a band's fans.

Season Pass is built on Polygon and rewards fans with NFT collectibles, merch discounts, unreleased tracks, and more. Top tier rewards include free tickets and meet-and-greets.

The band already had an established fanbase, which made introducing Web3 concepts easier. Other bands are waiting to see how it plays out.

Adoption will likely be driven by both existing bands like Avenged Sevenfold and emerging artists with built-in crypto-savvy fanbases.

The band wants to lead by example and show the music industry that Web3 can create better experiences for both musicians and fans.
