Exploring the Monet in Paris Exhibition

If you’ve been to the Van Gogh Alive Grande Experience, this is similar with the same SENSORY4™ technology. A 360-degree, fully immersive exhibition through 19th-century Impressionist Paris.

You enter Le Grand Palais, complete with a Moulin Rouge windmill and Parisian-themed café, to the exhibition. The experience includes projections of Monet’s works, including ‘Water Lilies’ and other impressionists of the time. Artists Edgar Degas, Camille Pissarro, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Paul Cézanne, Berthe Morisot, and Mary Cassatt have paintings displayed on an enormous scale.

This immersive experience spans Monet’s iconic landscapes, cityscapes, and gardens. Each brushstroke invites you to witness the world through his eyes.

Designed to walk around, this experience doesn’t have many places to sit. However, people sat on the floor at the Van Gogh Alive exhibition to take in the massive projections, music, and scent (yes, scents are released to immerse yourself fully). Smells you may recognise are Lemon, Lime, Jasmine, Geranium, Orange Flower, Patchouli, Cedarwood, Musk and Pine.

Please note that Monet in Paris is a cashless venue.
