Immersive Vincent Van Gogh exhibition set to come to Scottish city

AN IMMERSIVE attraction which brings the works of Vincent Van Gogh spectacularly to life is set to come to Aberdeen.

Beyond Van Gogh: The Immersive Experience will be staged at the port city’s P&J Live event complex for one month only from July 12 to August 10 2025.

The exhibition’s Scottish premiere at Glasgow’s Scottish Event Campus (SEC) this summer saw 50,000 visitors come through its doors – with the attraction ending up extending its run by three weeks due to demand.

Beyond Van Gogh: The Immersive Experience features more than 300 of the post-Impressionist icon’s paintings using technology and a specially curated musical soundtrack to tell the story of one of history’s most influential artists.

Attendees will be able to wander through iconic works - including The Starry Night, Sunflowers and Terrace of a Café at Night.

Tickets go on pre-sale this Thursday (November 28) at 9am for those signed up to the Beyond Van Gogh UK website.

Tickets then go on general sale on Friday 29 November 2024 at 9am.

Anna Parry, UK business development at Annerin Productions, said: “I’m thrilled that we’re finally able to announce that Beyond Van Gogh is coming to Aberdeen for summer 2025.

“We had an amazing response from visitors when we held the Scottish premiere in Glasgow earlier this year, and we decided to almost double its run as a result. It’s evident there’s a real passion and demand in Scotland for great art and exciting experiences; we’re incredibly excited to be the first to bring an experience of this kind to Northern Scotland. We know everyone who comes to immerse themselves in Van Gogh’s incredible world at P&J Live will have a memorable visit.

“The event complex is an absolutely fantastic space to showcase Beyond Van Gogh, and we’ve already enjoyed so much support and enthusiasm from the wonderful P&J Live team.”

Claire-Lena Miller-Davis, exhibition sales manager at P&J Live, added: “We are delighted to welcome Beyond Van Gogh to our venue, bringing an exciting cultural experience to the people of the North East of Scotland. It’s a real privilege to host this event, and from the outset we have seen significant interest from both local and national visitors, which is fantastic for the City. The experience is truly awe-inspiring and we can’t wait to share it.”
