Frequently Asked Questions

Safety is our number one priority for all guests attending Immersive Van Gogh Detroit. We’re proud to be operating an experience where it is safe to GOGH.

To ensure your safety, and based on guidance from the CDC and other government agencies, our walk-in exhibition will operate with enhanced safety measures including:

• Reduced capacity in line with state guidelines, to ensure all guests have enough space to safely enjoy the experience

• Touchless hand sanitizing stations placed throughout the venue

• Contactless payment encouraged throughout the venue

• Face coverings strongly recommended for all staff and guests

• Enhanced, regular cleaning throughout the day on each floor

We will continue to closely monitor the situation daily, and adjust our safety measures accordingly, in readiness for our opening.

Thanks for your patience and understanding during these challenging times.

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

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.
