“This one-of-a-kind immersive experience offers audiences the chance to explore the Great Pyramid of Giza in a way that is both unforgettable and inspiring — a true must-see.”

The Great Pyramid of Giza is the resting place of Pharaoh Khufu, built approximately 4,500 years ago during the 4th Dynasty. The engaging experience lasts about 45 minutes and allows visitors to move and interact within the shared VR space while learning about Egyptian history and culture.
More than one million people have visited the exhibit worldwide, and Edmonton is the third Canadian city to experience it, alongside Montreal and Calgary.
