Immerse LDN

The Timewalk Exhibition is an immersive exhibition at Immerse LDN, on the ExCeL London Waterfront, that traces roughly 12,000 years of human history across 22 civilisations.

The exhibition is organised across five immersive rooms, each recreating ancient settings through large projections, cinematic scenes and sound. Visitors encounter the cultures, beliefs and everyday achievements of societies such as Babylon, Ancient Egypt, the Maya, Rapa Nui and Göbeklitepe, with attention to their cities, architecture and traditions.

Immerse LDN is a venue for exhibitions and cultural events in London, and this display is presented there as a permanent offer. Audio narrations are delivered by professional actors in 25 languages, and a separate storytelling strand is designed for children. Interactive displays are also included, so the visit suits families as well as adults visiting with friends.

The exhibition was created by award-winning creators and combines historical content with technology. Its approach is to let visitors move through reconstructed ancient worlds at their own pace, learning how people lived and how they understood their place in the world.
