We only want to see you laughing in the purple rain or the purple rain inspired room at Prince The Immersive Experience in Chicago. The newly open exhibit invites Prince fans and soon to be fans to immerse themselves in the music and life of Prince. The experience takes visitors through 10 multidimensional rooms that walk them through the iconic singer’s life, creative evolution, and classic sound in a new and illuminating way.
From the moment you walk in striking images showcasing the icon are all around. Each room gives fans a different sensory experience through light, smell, hearing, taste, and touch. You can can step inside the Purple Rain album cover and rev up the beloved motorcycle, mix an iconic greatest hit in Prince’s beloved Paisley Park workspace Studio A; and let loose on the dance floor with an audio visual dance party designed by Prince’s lighting designer, Roy Bennett.
Superfly partnered with The Prince Estate to create this special experience. On collaborating with The Prince Estate, Chief Operating Officer of Superfly, Richard Gay told the Knockturnal, “It was unbelievable just for the stories, history, and just as a fan-I feel really privileged to be a part of this.”
Authenticity was also centered in the creation of this experience. “It was important to work with the estate because authenticity is everything to us at Superfly and it’s about the fans. To be there with the estate and go “this is how it really was…this is what happened and collectively come together to create something like this is incredible.”
The Experience does features historic wardrobe pieces, photography, instruments, and other items courtesy of The Prince Estate. Prince: The Immersive Experience is open in Chicago now through October 9. Guests can reserve timed entry tickets starting at $39.50.
