Immersive NOLA: Emerging Technologies and The New Orleans Experience

How emerging arts & technologies can transform New Orleans' cultural economy in profound ways, making it more immersive than ever!
About this Event

The debut of a new monthly series dedicated to the emerging arts & technologies that will transform New Orleans' cultural economy in profound ways, making the experience of our city and its culture more immersive than ever. We'll also explore how the 'location-based immersive economy' is already transforming global travel and entertainment, and why New Orleans, with its deep history of Carnival, festivals and theatrical spirit, should really be leading this industry where technology and hospitality collide.

The next evolution of storytelling is happening within the immersive experience economy—where audience engagement goes beyond mere screens and into shared spaces of interaction and connection. From escape rooms and interactive theatre to cutting-edge VR and transmedia adventures, this booming sector redefines entertainment by placing people at the center of the action. Whether they're solving mysteries, stepping into the worlds of their favorite films, or exploring breathtaking art installations, immersive experiences offer a thrilling blend of technology, creativity, and game mechanics.

While cities around the world are already tapping into this immersive trend, New Orleans could easily catch up and surpass them with artistic community and entrepreneurial initiatives.
