Sir David Attenborough could read the phonebook to us and we’d be hanging on his every word. But luckily for us, a new experience narrated by the biologist is coming to London, and it doesn’t involve phones or books!
BBC Earth Experience is a brand-new immersive experience which takes inspiration from the Van Gogh Exhibition: The Immersive Experience and Mexican Geniuses London: A Frida & Diego Immersive Experience in that visitors will be invited on a 360-degree audio visual journey.
Habitats from the seven continents will be projected onto the walls of the purpose-built Daikin Centre in London. Videos from Seven Worlds, One Planet – the stunning series which was filmed over 1,794 days across 41 countries – feature throughout the exhibition.
Expect to see fireflies dancing in North America, snub-nosed monkeys huddling together in Asia, and a face-off between hamsters fighting to keep their food in Europe. Who said you need to hop on a plane to see the world?
