This winter, art lovers are in for a spectacular seasonal treat with the chance to enjoy not one, but two stunning multimedia experiences.
In this immersive impressionist extravaganza, cutting-edge technology breathes new life into more than 400 of the legendary French painter’s canvases, taking visitors on a spectacular and unforgettable audio-visual journey through his captivating and colourful world.
Beyond Monet brings together some of the artist’s most famous paintings, including Poppies, Impression: Sunrise and the Water Lilies series which offer a fresh and exciting new look at much-loved masterpieces and a deeper connection with Monet, his subjects and his innovative technique. Taking inspiration from Musée de l’Orangerie in Paris, the designated home of Monet’s works, visitors can freely roam the Infinity Room where they are transported inside the paintings themselves to the accompaniment of a moving original score.
Meanwhile, Beyond Van Gogh: The Immersive Experience brings together more than 300 of the post-Impressionist icon’s paintings blended with cutting-edge technology and a specially curated musical soundtrack to tell the story of one of history’s most influential artists, with people able to wander through iconic works – including The Starry Night, Sunflowers and Terrace of a Café at Night – as they came alive around them.
This immersive event takes place at the Royal Highland Centre on selected dates from 29 November 2025 to 04 January 2026. The centre is located next to Edinburgh Airport at Ingliston. Edinburgh Trams run a regular service to Ingliston Park & Ride, it is then a 10 to 15 minute walk to the centre. Lothian Buses’ Airlink 100 also drop-offs close to the Royal Highland Centre.
