BEYOND VAN GOGH: The Immersive Experience, produced by Paquin Entertainment Group, opens in Surrey at the Agriplex at Cloverdale Fairgrounds on February 1, 2023.

The three-dimensional experience features more than 300 of the greatest works of post-Impressionist master Vincent Van Gogh. To date, Beyond Van Gogh has sold more than four million tickets globally, making it one of the world’s most popular current travelling exhibitions.

Among the masterpieces included are The Starry Night, Sunflowers, and Café Terrace at Night; then there are several self-portraits.

The Education Room leads into the Waterfall Room, which flows into the Immersive Experience Room. Freed from their frames, Van Gogh’s paintings appear on projection-swathed walls inviting people to fully immerse themselves in the detail of his work and be surrounded by ever-shifting colours, images, and landscapes. The artist’s own words are set to a symphonic score, creating a narrative experience.

Tickets go on sale at 9 am on December 8 at www.vangoghsurrey.com. Prices start at $31.99 for adults and $23.99 for children (ages five to 15), plus ticketing fees.

Running to March 5, 2023, Beyond Van Gogh is open Sunday to Thursday from 10 am to 9 pm (last entry at 7 pm) and Friday and Saturday from 10 am to 9 pm (last entry at 8 pm).
