Immersive David Attenborough exhibition coming to Earl’s Court

A ground-breaking new exhibition, BBC Earth, is coming to Earl’s Court next month, narrated by the legendary Sir David Attenborough.

The attraction will feature an immersive journey through the seven continents of the world, narrated by the 96-year-old iconic nature documentarian.

The footage is taken from Seven Worlds, One Planet, the BBC’s most-watched factual TV show of 2019, which took viewers on a journey that not only celebrated the beauty of life on each of the seven continents but also highlighted the many challenges faced by nature in the modern world.

Now the beauty of our planet will be translated through to Dakin Centre where breath-taking footage will be illustrated on an unrivalled scale, with the aim to bring the wonder back to Earl’s Court.

Visitors can expect to take a majestic 360-degree audio-visual journey as they marvel and explore iconic landscapes and connect with mesmerising animals on this epic adventure bringing environments to life.

From fireflies putting on a spectacular light show in North America, to snub-nosed monkeys huddling together to stay warm in Asia, and hungry hamsters fighting to keep their food in Europe, visitors will get to experience our seven continents in all their glory, like never before.

This new London attraction spans 1608 square metres and offers a truly transformative experience that will allow audiences of every age to feel like they’ve stepped into the natural world, losing themselves in boundless wonder as they travel to far-flung places.

Speaking about this captivating experience, the Global Director, Live Entertainment, Gaming & Interactive for BBC Studios, May Way said: “We are delighted to partner with Moon Eye Productions and Live Nation to bring the BBC’s ground-breaking natural history content to this amazing live immersive London location for everyone to enjoy.”

“Utilising the best natural history series in the world, courtesy of BBC Studios, we knew we could create our first immersive event to achieve our goal.

“Working with the BBC Studios team to transform the content into a 360-degree audio-visual spectacle and Sir David Attenborough to narrate has been a privilege and we are proud to present BBC Earth Experience.”

The experience is set to open on 30th March and will run for four months.
