London has been chosen as the hub, home, and heart of the World Experience Organisation (WXO)’s inaugural who’s-who and what’s-what event: London Experience Week (LXW), with support from London & Partners. The dynamic event will run between April 28 – May 2, 2025. Each day will bring a plethora of experiences to participate in. The central handpicked venue is Phantom Peak (near Canada Water); a living, breathing, immersive old-town-style open world experience.
What will be happening?
Beginning with a welcome open social event with special drinks, the expansive multi-day spectacle will play host across an abundance of events. With most happening at various immersive experience venues, there’s a choice for every sector, from *breathes in*: backstage and private venue tours, open studios, workshops, roundtables, and discussions.
Hundreds of ticket holders will have the opportunity to be fully immersed (and involved) in spectacular virtual reality venues, such as: Outernet, Monopoly Lifesized, and IF Magic.
The event will be attended by key heavyweight industry players, such as: Winston Fisher (AREA15), Luke Mitchell (Boomtown), Olivier Goulet (creator of the Minecraft Experience), MIkhael Tara Garver (ex-Disney’s Galactic Starcruiser), and Heather Gallagher (former Head of Tech, Burning Man).
The event will host the innovative UNCONFERENCE – where any attendees, creative or business-minded alike, will have the opportunity to take the stage and present their emerging, innovative ideas. Then the audience is put to vote for their favourite ideas.
If that’s not enough to satiate you into buying your ticket here, the folks at LXW will treat guests to: a fancy dress party London’s new experience district Immerse LDN, which includes a visit to Tutankhamun: The Immersive Exhibition, cross-city immersive excursions at Jury Games, Monopoly Lifesized, and 1950s Cuba, pop-up experiences at UNIVERS, and an immersive wellness experience at Sanctuary. There’s even a chance to get spooky at The Haunted Library.
Closing the fiesta is a bash at Polygon Live, a spatial audio festival.
