Immersive Van Gogh made its North American debut in Toronto at the start of the world-wide pandemic. Lighthouse Immersive, the innovative live entertainment company behind the production responded to the distancing protocols by offering the first-ever ‘drive through option’, a move that resulted in sold out shows from 7 – 3 p.m. seven days a week. The show that catapulted the immersive craze will make its final stop in Toronto this fall and it will run for a limited time.

Immersive Van Gogh changed the way audiences experience art and made it available to the masses in a way we have never seen before,” explains Corey Ross, CEO of Lighthouse Immersive. “To really do justice to this kind of experience and to Van Gogh’s incomparable body of work, we will be officially retiring this production with plans already underway to reimagine a new exhibition that will build on the ongoing audience demand”.

Immersive Van Gogh is a full immersion into more than 300 of the Vincent Van Gogh’s greatest works. The exhibit premiered in Toronto in July 2020 and has gone on to earn rave reviews from critics around the world who call it “Dazzling!” (Lonely Planet), “Breathtaking!” (NBC’s Today Show) and a “Must-See” (Architectural Digest).

The exhibition invites audiences to “step inside” the iconic works legendary Dutch painter Vincent Van Gogh (1853 – 1890) who is recognized as one of the world’s greatest and best loved artists. During his short life he painted more than 2,000 artworks ranging from ordinary household items and self-portraits to surreal landscapes each evoking his highly emotional and chaotic inner consciousness through art, light, music, movement and imagination. He struggled with mental illness and remained poor and virtually unknown throughout his life. In his 37 years alive, Van Gogh only sold one painting, The Red Vineyards, to his brother Theo.
