The Unreal Garden - Chicago

This spring only, experience the hit immersive exhibit: The Unreal Garden: Escape The Metaverse at Block 37 in downtown Chicago.

Spend 30-60 minutes exploring a three act play where you star as the main character in the world’s first Holographic Theatre presented by Verse Immersive.

The Unreal Garden: Escape The Metaverse is unlike anything you’ve seen before - be the first to tell your friends about the future of storytelling with cutting edge holographic headsets also used by NASA (No nausea!).

No experience required, the perfect entertainment option for work parties, friends-night-out, date night, and creating unforgettable family memories.

Ages 7 and up welcome. Please leave the furry friends at home.

Walk-in tickets are available but they often sell out by 2pm so please book in advance.

About The Unreal Garden

Are you imaginary? The Unreal Garden: Escape The Metaverse takes you on a journey through time and space guided by a butterfly who is convinced that you are a part of her imagination! Interact with the environment, feed the animals, collect all the crystals, and maybe if you’re lucky: you’ll find your way back home before you turn into a hologram!

The Unreal Garden: Escape The Metaverse is perfect for first-time “Verse Walkers”. There is no experience required to enjoy the show, but you might not find everything the first time you play.

Remember: Stay curious, look everywhere and touch everything!
