NEW YORK, NY.- For the 100th anniversary of King Tut’s tomb discovery on November 4, 1922, Beyond King Tut brings the magic and mystery of Ancient Egypt to New York City.
Beyond King Tut: The Immersive Experience, a new exhibition created in partnership with the National Geographic Society, opened October 28th at Pier 36 for a limited run. Bringing to life the storied archives of the National Geographic Society, the much-anticipated exhibition combines the power of cinematic storytelling and soaring imagery to invite visitors into the golden king’s world like never before.
The multi-gallery, multi-sensory exhibition whisks guests on a time-traveling adventure to Ancient Egypt. With nine galleries to explore, Beyond King Tut: The Immersive Experience unlocks the 3,300-year-old story of King Tut – his rule as a child pharaoh, his family, the discovery of his tomb and the mysteries surrounding his early death, and his journey to the afterlife.
Beyond King Tut is produced by Paquin Entertainment Group in association with Immersive and the creative team behind the King Tut artifact exhibitions that attracted millions of visitors across the globe.
