Exploring the depths of ancient history, the exhibition features an immersive video mapping hall with spectacular 360-degree projections, a hologram room showcasing the full mummification process of Pharaoh Tutankhamun, an exhilarating virtual reality experience through the Egyptian afterlife, and an interactive digital metaverse space that allows visitors to walk through Howard Carter's excavation camp in the Valley of the Kings.
Visitors begin their journey through an interactive walkway which leads into a museal area presenting captivating background stories about Egyptian civilization alongside carefully curated replicas and artefacts.
Following this, the experience continues into a huge immersive video mapping hall which recounts the rich history of Egypt, its natural landscapes, cultural heritage, the life of Tutankhamun, his tomb, and its groundbreaking discovery. The moment of the discovery of the tomb is described in a recorded interview of Howard Carter, the famous British archaeologist who discovered the tomb, adding an extraordinary layer of authenticity to the experience. Visitors will also embark on a 360-degree seated virtual reality experience, journeying into the mystical Egyptian afterlife before entering yet another hi-tech space where they will witness a hologram presentation, vividly bringing to life the entire mummification process of Pharaoh Tutankhamun.
Finally, the experience invites visitors to step into an interactive digital metaverse walk-through of the Valley of the Kings, exploring Howard Carter's basecamp, and reliving the monumental moment of the 1922 discovery in its full glory. At the end of the experience, every visitor will be able to capture a memento of their day with a photograph in the AI photobooth where they will be transformed into a citizen of ancient Egypt.
Designed with children, families, schools, history enthusiasts and anyone interested in high-tech, immersive events in mind, the exhibition has already captivated over 2 million visitors with hugely successful runs in Madrid, Hamburg, Cairo, Sao Paulo, Barcelona, Vienna, Malmö and London.
Dominic McKay, Chief Executive Officer of the Scottish Event Campus, said: “We are absolutely delighted to welcome Tutankhamun: The Immersive Exhibition to SEC Glasgow for its exclusive Scottish run. This extraordinary experience offers a rare opportunity to explore one of the world’s most fascinating civilisations up close, and we’re incredibly proud to host a cultural event of this calibre. We know it will capture the imagination of families, schools and history and tech lovers alike, and we can’t wait for visitors from across Scotland and beyond to be inspired by it.”
This approximate 90-minute+ experience is both engaging and informative with a truly captivating and immersive atmosphere, making it Glasgow’s must-see cultural event until October 26th. It is also easy to reach being located at SEC Glasgow, a three-minute train ride from Glasgow Central.
Tickets are on sale now, with Adult tickets priced from £22.50, children from £16.45 and The Pharoah Package priced from £52.50 including queue jump and a range of merchandise. A £2.50 booking fee will be added at checkout.
