IMAGINATOR is now open on the Gold Coast – with exclusive new experiences!

Calling GOLD COAST mind adventurers, light chasers, imagination lovers, futurists and cool seekers – YOUR PLAYGROUND AWAITS, because IMAGINATION is now open in Surfers Paradise!

What’s even cooler is that FIVE of the 15 IMMERSIVE EXPERIENCES ARE absolutely EXCLUSIVE TO THE GOLD COAST, including Imaginator’s first immersive game called Astral Runner

Yes, the Gold Coast has the best IMAGINATOR!

These are the five experiences you can ONLY have on the Gold Coast:

• Parachute Cinema: Discover a selection of the world’s best new media artists in IMAGINATOR’s parachute cinema!
• Shape of room: Step into a gentle sci-fi wellness experience, where guests are guided through an exploration of colour therapy and sound. Zen is your friend!
• Smoke landscape: Let yourself be carried away by sound, smoke and smell in the smoke scape installation. IT IS AN OVERLOAD OF ALL THE SENSES!
• Digital maze: Find your way through a Tron-inspired digital maze. Which way?

• Astral Runner: The team at IMAGINATOR has designed their first immersive game, where the Astral Runner must try to get through as many portals as possible. May the odds always be in your favor!

And here are five IMAGINATOR experiences made even BETTER, especially for the Gold Coast:

• Wishing well – Whisper your wish into the well and watch it come true for you.
• Sky jump – Come test your courage and jump from a 4-meter high ledge on the ‘Air Jump’ installation, designed by @loose_collective and a stuntman from New Zealand.
• Air bubble: Enter a giant inflatable bubble and view a projection and poem created by computers
• Chroma room: The Chroma Room has long been a favorite for content creators and creatives, allowing rich digital content to resonate through a mirrored room

Creative Director Nick Ennis said the IMAGINATOR experience was like being inside a kaleidoscope of light, sound and wonder, with the experiences being the result of the work of architects, authors, audiovisual artists, futurists, renderers and sound designers.

“Prepare for a journey into the extraordinary at IMAGINATOR, a groundbreaking fusion of audiovisual art, light installations, futuristic gaming and inflatable architecture. This innovative creation redefines the boundaries of immersive entertainment, delivering a unique experience that seamlessly combines technology and imagination,” he said. “IMAGINATOR builds a constant sense of anticipation. Each room is slowly revealed as you move through the space, presenting a different mood and atmosphere. You can play, explore, relax or engage at your own pace. There are chairs and lounges throughout the experience to linger when the moment feels right,” he said.

“We’re excited to see Gold Coasters FINALLY step inside, kick off their shoes and engage with AI projections, sensor-driven LED waves, giant silk parachute canopies, interactive mazes, a digital smokescape and an electronic wishing well that whispers your greatest desires. Explore the multi-sensory and interactive play space at your leisure with an experience that ranges from 20 minutes walkthrough to an hour-long immersion. IMAGINATOR is a celebration of imagination, technology and immersive play and it’s something the whole family can do together, or… it’s the coolest date experience out there!”

Located at 3241 Gold Coast Highway in Surfers Paradise, in the heart of the Gold Coast’s all-ages playground, IMAGINATOR brings a whole new experience to the city. Significantly, this is the first time the site has been used in Surfers in 30 years.
