Celebrating the world’s best immersive experiences
Immersive experiences are transforming how we engage with art, stories, spaces and each other. Audiences are no longer spectators, they are participants, explorers and co-creators.
From intimate theatre in abandoned buildings to projection-mapped galleries, escape rooms, XR worlds and dining that becomes theatre, immersive creators are rewriting what live experience can be.
Until now, immersive work has been scattered across theatre awards, events awards, museum awards, XR lists and marketing rankings.
The Immersive Experience Awards provide a single home for:
immersive theatre and performance
escape rooms
experiential dining and hospitality
projection-led exhibitions
XR / VR / AR experiences
brand activations and pop-ups
themed or touring attractions
hybrid physical-digital worlds
If the audience steps inside the story, it belongs here.
Immersive experiences are defining the next era of storytelling.
If you build worlds of any kind, these awards are here to celebrate your work.
