In Buenos Aires there are many experiences that you may not have discovered yet and are waiting for you. Some are so intimate and particular that they are only known by word of mouth, recommended by those who have already lived them. If no one told you about them, here we are: these are the 12 immersive experiences in Buenos Aires that are worth living at least once.
1. Meta Park
The border between the real and the virtual becomes blurred at Meta Park, the first metaverse experience park in Argentina. Its four locations offer game stations equipped with Oculus Quest 2 viewers, where you can explore digital worlds, participate in simulators, visit art exhibitions or attend virtual concerts.
📍Various branches: Trepark and Escape Games Almagro / San Telmo / Urquiza
2. Art Masters: a journey inspired by the works of the Prado Museum.
In Art Masters, virtual reality becomes an open door to art. Through multi-user technology, you will go through five masterpieces of the Madrid museum and explore their details as never before: walk through the hall of Las Meninas by Velázquez, get lost in the worlds of The Garden of Earthly Delights by Bosch or come face to face with Goya’sThe Coven. One of the immersive experiences in Buenos Aires that proves that art history can also be experienced in 360°.
📍La Rural
3. Candlelight
Immersive experiences can also be lived without the need for screens or virtual reality. Candlelight demonstrates this with concerts where live music is combined with an environment illuminated by thousands of candles. The result is a multisensory concert that makes classical music or tributes to artists such as Queen or Soda Stereo be experienced in a totally different way. Discover here the program in Buenos Aires.
📍Several branches: Margarita Xirgu Theater, San José School Auditorium and Asturian Center of Buenos Aires.

The Grand Splendid Experience allows access to areas of the old cinema-theater that are not part of the usual visit to the bookstore. Through interactive scenes and an immersive room, the experience reconstructs the history of the building, from its stage as a theater and cinema to its present as a bookstore. The closing includes a high-rise café with a direct view of the original dome, one of the most outstanding architectural elements of the place.
📍Grand Splendid Athenaeum
7. Almost Normal
The Broadway phenomenon arrives to the immersive format with Casi Normales (formerly Next to Normal Immersive), one of the most awaited immersive experiences in Buenos Aires. Here the audience becomes part of the story: the actors move among the spectators and the projections transform the space. After its world premiere in Barcelona, the Argentine version recovers the strength and sensitivity that made this musical a contemporary cult work.

The Blind Theater is the only one in the country where all the shows take place in complete darkness. The proposal seeks to make the public experiment with other senses: sound, touch and smell replace sight. You can go to a play, a concert or a dinner and experience the story from another place, guided only by the voices and the music that go through the room.
