JURASSIC WORLD: THE EXHIBITION Roars Into Denver
Get closer to dinosaurs than ever before in JURASSIC WORLD: THE EXHIBITION! The exhibition immerses audiences of all ages in interactive scenes inspired by the beloved film. Now, the park that was only a promise comes to life… right before your eyes.

  • Discover the science of Jurassic World
  • Meet the most adorable baby dinos
  • Getup-close and personal with velociraptors
  • Come face to face with life-size dinosaurs

JURASSIC WORLD: THE EXHIBITION is an immersive 20,000-square-foot experience based on one of the biggest blockbusters in cinema history. Visitors will walk through the world-famous “Jurassic World” gates, encounter life-sized dinosaurs, and explore richly themed environments. Guests will have an up-close look at a Velociraptor, stand in awe under a towering Brachiosaurus, and encounter the most fearsome of them all, the mighty Tyrannosaurus rex. Guests will be able to imagine what it would have been like to roam among these breathtaking creatures and even interact with new baby dinosaurs, including “Bumpy” from the popular animated series Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous. (Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous is produced by Universal, DreamWorks Animation and Amblin Entertainment, and is currently streaming on Netflix.)

We had a chance to check out JURASSIC WORLD: THE EXHIBITION, and to say that I was impressed was a bit of an understatement. If your family enjoys the Jurassic Park movies, you will love JURASSIC WORLD: THE EXHIBITION. If you are like my kids when they were little… OBSESSED with dinosaurs… JURASSIC WORLD: THE EXHIBITION is a definite must-see. Honestly, even if dinosaurs don’t float your boat, you will enjoy JURASSIC WORLD: THE EXHIBITION. It’s magical.

FIVE REASONS WE LOVED JURASSIC WORLD: THE EXHIBITION

Everything is so realistic.
From the “sets” to the story line to the characters to the dinosaurs themselves, it was easy to feel as if you were actually inside of JURASSIC WORLD.

JURASSIC WORLD: THE EXHIBITION is like a ride, a guided tour through different parts of the “park”.
Employees are in character, playing park rangers, scientists, dino wranglers, and even security… and quite honestly, it was easy to forget that it was all an act.

Selfie stations are located throughout JURASSIC WORLD: THE EXHIBITION.
Use your QR code card to launch the camera, and JURASSIC WORLD: THE EXHIBITION will grab a photo that will be uploaded onto your own mini photo site. You can download as many as you would like for free.

Whether you go to look or learn, you will have an amazing time.
There were quite a few “knowledge boards”, as I called them, that offered a ton of information about specific dinosaurs, features of the park, and even what a carnivore vs herbivore’s poop looks like. You have the option to go in depth, or just enjoy the feast for your eyes. Either way, you are going to have a blast.

JURASSIC WORLD: THE EXHIBITION is just like the movies!
We prepared our 11 year old for the event by watching Jurassic Park as a family before we went. He loved seeing things from the movie brought to life, and I have to admit, I thought it was pretty cool myself.

Cityneon’s VR Machu Picchu experience scoops Lumiere Award

The immersive experiential design firm won in the category for ‘Best Use of VR’ for its Machu Picchu and the Spirit of the Condor virtual reality (VR) experience

Cityneon has won a Lumiere Award for its Machu Picchu and the Spirit of the Condor virtual reality (VR) experience.

Winning in the category for ‘Best Use of VR’, the company was honoured at an awards ceremony at the Beverly Hills Hotel in Los Angeles, California, US, alongside Expo Dubai Xplorer, which won ‘Best Use of AR’ and Netflix’s Squid Game, which scooped the award for ‘Best Episodic – Live Action’.

Disney and Disney Plus were also honoured in the ceremony, winning awards for WandaVision, Encanto and The Beatles: Get Back.

Founded by the Advanced Imaging Society in 2010, the Lumiere Awards recognise outstanding achievement in immersive storytelling using advanced visual technologies such as virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), artificial intelligence (AI) and real-time rendering.

“This award not only recognises the wonderful potential of VR in capturing the world around us, but it’s also a testament to Cityneon’s expertise in innovative technologies that empowers the Group to bring immersive entertainment to a whole new level,” said Ron Tan, Cityneon’s executive chairman and Group CEO.

Described as the first-ever virtual showcase of Machu Picchu, the one-of-a-kind walk-through experience takes guests through more than 5,000 years of Peruvian history and features patented VR motion chairs equipped with multi-sensory effects including six-degrees of freedom (6-DOF) VR headsets, haptic feedback, scent dispensers and unlimited 360-degree rotation.

The experience forms part of Cityneon’s travelling Machu Picchu and the Golden Empires of Peru exhibition, which first opened at the Boca Raton Museum of Art in Florida, US, in October 2021 and will soon reopen at the Palais de Chaillot in Paris, France.

The project was supported by the Peruvian Government and Ministry for Culture, who permitted Cityneon, who also created Jurassic World: The Exhibition, to fly drones through the Unesco World Heritage site to capture cinematic and visual assets for the experience. The Museo Larco, Inkaterra Asociación and World Heritage Exhibitions also lent their support to the project.

Cityneon’s VR Experience, Machu Picchu and the Spirit of the Condor, Wins “Best Use of VR” at The Lumiere™ Awards 2022

Los Angeles, USA, 11 March 2022 – Cityneon Holding’s VR experience, Machu Picchu and the Spirit of the Condor, wins the “Best Use of VR” category at the 12th Annual Lumiere™ Awards! The company was honoured alongside many top industry names in film, television, and gaming studios around the world in the prestigious award ceremony that was held on 4 March 2022 at the Beverly Hills Hotel in Los Angeles, California. 

Organiser of the Lumiere™ Awards – The Advanced Imaging Society, was founded in 2009 by members from major Hollywood studios and top technology companies to advance the creative arts and next generation of premium consumer technology. Under this year’s theme, “Larger Than Life”, the Society honoured 21 works with outstanding international achievement in the creation of immersive storytelling using advanced visual technologies. 

In particular, Cityneon was awarded “Best Use of VR” for its VR experience, Machu Picchu and the Spirit of the Condor, which features the first-ever virtual showcase of the UNESCO World Heritage Site, Machu Picchu. Through the utilization of globally-acclaimed patented VR motion chairs fully equipped with premium multi-sensory stimulation features such as high-resolution six degrees of freedom (6-DOF) VR headsets, haptic feedback on the backseats, scent dispensers and unlimited 360-degree rotation, this VR experience is featured as the highlight of the company’s Original Artefact IP Experience – Machu Picchu and the Golden Empires of Peru. 

Other distinguished winners of the award include Netflix’s series Squid Game and Arcane, Warner Bros.’s Dune, Steven Spielberg’s West Side Story (20TH Century Studios), Disney’s animated musical adventure pic, Encanto, Disney+ series WandaVision, Disney and Marvel’s Shang Chi: The Legend of the Ten Rings and Sony and Marvel’s Spider-Man: No Way Home. 

“We are ecstatic to receive this prestigious award,” says Ron Tan, Executive Chairman & Group CEO of Cityneon Holdings. “This award not only recognises the wonderful potential of virtual reality in capturing the world around us, but it is also a testament to Cityneon’s expertise in innovative technologies that empowers the Group to bring immersive entertainment to a whole new level.” 

As a global leader of immersive experiences, Cityneon seeks to capture the imagination of their visitors and deliver compelling experiences that will shape the future of the experience entertainment industry. Their enduring partnerships with global partners, world-renowned studios such as Disney, Marvel, Hasbro, Universal, Lionsgate, and 20TH Century Studios, and foreign governments from Peru and Egypt, drive the company to produce world-class experiences for millions of visitors each year. 

Just last October, Cityneon launched the world premiere of its first Original Artefact IP Experience, Machu Picchu and the Golden Empires of Peru at the Boca Raton Museum of Art in Florida and this experience will be travelling to Paris at the City of Architecture and Heritage – Palais de Chaillot on 16 April 2022. 

The Group also launched the world premiere of Ramses the Great and the Gold of the Pharaohs in Houston, Texas last November. Both artefact IP experiences achieved tremendous success and will be travelling to more cities around the world in the next few years to showcase the beauty and history of the Andean and Ancient Egyptian culture to everyone around the world. 

Apart from the two artefact IPs, the Group also holds studio IP rights including partnerships with the 20TH Century Studios for Avatar: The Exhibition, Universal Studios for Jurassic World: The Exhibition, Marvel for Marvel Avengers S.T.A.T.I.O.N., Lionsgate for The Hunger Games: The Exhibition, and Hasbro for Transformers: The Experience. 

Notably, Jurassic World: The Exhibition rolled out its first North American tour last summer, making its first stop at Dallas with record-breaking ticket sales and sell-out weekends all through to early 2022. After concluding the stop at Dallas, the experience moved northwards to Denver and officially opened its gates on 4 March 2022, receiving great response from visitors and sell-out shows over the opening weekend. 

Upcoming in 2022, the Marvel Avengers S.T.A.T.I.O.N. will also be debuting in Tokyo, Japan at the Mori Arts Center Gallery in April, and Kyoto at the Kyoto City KYOCERA Museum of Art in June. Cityneon has also recently announced a partnership with Warner Bros. Themed Entertainment to produce two brand-new, unique global touring themed art experiences inspired by DC Comics and the Wizarding World of Harry Potter, slated to launch in 2023. 

To date, Cityneon has secured IP rights to seven of Hollywood’s biggest movie franchises and two original artefact IPs from Peru and Egypt to produce travelling experiences across the world. 

To support these global endeavours, Cityneon has announced its expansion into Qatar to cater to markets in the Europe, Middle East, and Africa (EMEA) region, and to land a brand-new R&D facility in Wuxi, China to further expand its capabilities in entertainment robotics. 

As Cityneon continues to foster relationships with partners, studios, and governments globally, the Group stays ahead of the game by venturing into bold projects to create even more phenomenal, technologically driven experiences. Moving forward in 2022 and beyond, Cityneon aims to reach more than 70 cities and 10 million unique visitors worldwide, and to firmly secure its position as the leading provider of entertainment experiences across the world.
