Tutankhamun

The Immersive Exhibition

Travel to Ancient Egypt and experience the history of an absolutely magical civilisation. The immersive exhibition closed its doors in Madrid in July 2023 with more than 300,000 visitors and after winning three Telly Awards. If you have not yet visited the exhibition, you can still do so in other European cities.

Exhibition Areas

Exhibition Room

In the exhibition areas there was information about Tutankhamun and Ancient Egypt, with an introduction to understand the period and an exhibition of original and replica pieces.

Immersive Room

In the immersive room, with 1,200 m2 of projection, MAD offered a unique experience through the life of Tutankhamun, a 360-degree visual spectacle with an exceptional soundtrack.

Augmented Reality Room

This room was designed for the public to interact and explore Tutankhamun’s tomb. Through an augmented reality game, visitors competed with other visitors and companions.

Virtual Reality Room

In the largest virtual reality room in Europe (50 seats with VR goggles + headset) MAD proposed a journey back thousands of years in which to immerse oneself completely in the universe of Ancient Egypt.

Soundtrack
