Los Angeles Immersive Theater Calendar

From creators of the blockbuster show in Paris seen by over 2 million visitors and still wowing crowds in Toronto, the west coast premiere of the Immersive Van Gogh Exhibit will bring the art of Vincent to life in Los Angeles

Experience art like never before – lose yourself in 300,000 cubic feet of flawless projections animating Vincent van Gogh’s oeuvre. Wander through entrancing, moving images that highlight brushstrokes, detail, and color – truly illuminating the mind of the genius.

You will be immersed in Van Gogh’s works – from his sunny landscapes and night scenes to his portraits and still life paintings. The installation includes the Mangeurs de pommes de terre (The Potato Eaters, 1885), the Nuit étoilée (Starry Night, 1889), Les Tournesols (Sunflowers, 1888), and La Chambre à coucher (The Bedroom, 1889), and so much more.

Experience the organic landscapes of Van Gogh’s imagination, and journey through his brilliance and madness.

Astonishing in scale and breathtakingly imaginative, you will experience Van Gogh’s art in a completely new and unforgettable way.

The exhibit is designed and conceived by Massimiliano Siccardi, with soundtrack by Luca Longobardi, both of whom pioneered immersive digital art experiences in France.
This exhibition contains sequences of bright flashing lights which may affect visitors who are susceptible to photosensitive epilepsy, as well as others who are sensitive to moving lights. Viewer discretion is advised.

The DiscOasis is a timed-entry, 90-120 minute theatrical journey that unites art, light, disco, dance, live performance, roller skating, and good times within the natural paradise of the South Coast Botanic Garden. Upon arrival to the South Coast Botanic Garden, you’ll enjoy a walk through the garden’s natural paradise before being transported into The DiscOasis through the voice of The Groovemaster, the disco and funk legend Nile Rodgers. Soon you will find yourself dancing and skating your way through a glittering sonic fantasia for the soul.

Highlights of The DiscOasis will include:

• Roller Disco – Guests will experience the freedom and magic of roller skating, as they skate and dance along with professional roller skaters and performers styled in fabulous costumes and glitter, throughout the garden, and alongside them in the radiant Roller Disco.   
• Bops, blooms, and disco balls – Imagine planting a garden by disco seeds, which burst into dancing flowers!
• Grow, Glow, and Groove Dance Flora  – Revelers will express themselves on the oversized “bloom” box dance floor.  Its lighting design will pulse to the rhythm’s groove, washing over the surrounding lush floral, as though music is giving life; bringing together healing, and the vital power of community.

The DiscOasis will feature a food and beverage area with a curated selection of food trucks that highlight local cuisines, paying tribute to the iconic snack bar foods found in local roller rinks.  Guests can also enjoy charcuterie boards in the designated picnic areas, and a unique menu of mocktails and cocktails will be served as guests enjoy themselves throughout the various activities of the experience.
