TIMEWALK BECOMES 12TH EXPERIENCE TO OPEN AT IMMERSE LDN

New immersive journey through ancient civilisations to make UK debut
at Immerse LDN on the Excel waterfront this summer...

 

The latest and 12th experience to open at Immerse LDN has today been announced with TIMEWALK making its UK debut this summer.

TIMEWALK, a major new immersive exhibition from DEM Museums, will open in July 2026, inviting visitors to explore the rise and fall of human civilisation through spectacular audio and visual storytelling.

Created as an immersive walk-through adventure rather than a traditional gallery display, TIMEWALK brings ancient civilisations back to full scale, restoring their grandeur, atmosphere, and human stories through vivid, multi-sensory environments.

Beginning with Göbeklitepe, the moment humanity moves beyond survival to create ritual, meaning, and collective consciousness, TIMEWALK traces the earliest known chapters of civilisation and follows the echoes of human life across centuries.

Visitors will continue through legendary ancient worlds, including Babylon, the emergence of order, urbanisation, and systems of knowledge, Ancient Egypt, the pursuit of immortality and cosmic balance, the Maya, understanding the universe through mathematics, astronomy, and cyclical time, and Rapa Nui, the cultural and spiritual significance of the Moai statues.

With breathtaking visual effects, heart-pounding soundscapes, and spellbinding narration, TIMEWALK brings history to life as a living, breathing spectacle that fuses together elements of space, water, and time.

TIMEWALK is created by DEM Museums, known for pioneering experiential cultural destinations, including the globally awarded Hagia Sophia History and Experience Museum and the Ephesus Experience Museum. As DEM expands its work internationally, TIMEWALK represents a major new chapter, bringing the universal story of early civilisation to the heart of London.

Eda Bildiricioglu, CEO of DEM, said: "With 35 years of experience in visual and auditory technologies and having contributed to the realization of 18 museums and cultural complexes, along with earning 15 global awards through the Hagia Sophia and Ephesus Experience Museums, our goal is to bring together the universal narratives of ancient civilisations. By interpreting these through a contemporary storytelling language, we aim to help visitors form deeper and more lasting connections with cultural heritage.”

Damian Norman, Director, Immersive Entertainment Excel London and Immerse LDN, said: “We’re delighted to welcome TIMEWALK to Immerse LDN and to collaborate with the multi award-winning team at DEM Museums, a global leader in technology-driven cultural storytelling. Their unique approach to combining historical research with advanced immersive technologies is redefining how audiences engage with heritage at scale.

"Since launching, Immerse LDN has introduced more than 10 groundbreaking immersive experiences to London, selling 1.7 million tickets and further cementing the capital’s reputation as a world-leading destination for immersive entertainment and cultural experiences. TIMEWALK represents another significant step in that journey, bringing a truly world-class cultural experience to the heart of the city.”

TIMEWALK will open in July with full details announced in due course. A 25-language audio guide is also set to further enhance the experience. General admission ticket prices start from £28.50 and children’s prices from £22.70
