Starry Night featuring Van Gogh Alive isn’t just an exhibition - it’s a fully immersive journey through the life, mind, and masterpieces of Vincent van Gogh. Fusing art, nature, and storytelling with cutting-edge digital technology, this international experience transforms any space, indoors or outdoors – from historic estates to botanical gardens – into a living canvas of colour, sound, and fragrance. From its venue-flexible design and scalable setup, to its multisensory storytelling and interactive VR addition, Starry Night featuring Van Gogh Alive is redefining what it means to “go to an art show.” This is art in motion — personal, powerful, and unforgettable.
Starry Night featuring Van Gogh Alive follows Vincent’s artistic evolution across Europe — from his early days in the Netherlands to the golden hues of Arles, the serenity of Saint-Rémy, and the final chapter in Auvers-sur-Oise. But this is no traditional gallery walk. Over 3,000 animated visuals are projected across every surface, set to an evocative classical soundtrack – each stroke, colour, and letter, Van Gogh’s world unfolds in real-time, making his legacy feel more intimate and alive than ever.
Immersion That Adapts to Every Space
What makes this experience so dynamic is its flexibility to transform it to almost any setting. Whether installed in a city museum, a countryside estate, or an open-air garden, the modular, transportable, and self-contained design makes the experience easy to host, without sacrificing scale, quality or impact.
Every host venue is treated as a collaborator. The installation is curated to complement its surroundings, incorporating natural elements or local context into the storytelling. And because the structure is non-invasive and self-supporting, even heritage sites and delicate interiors can bring Van Gogh to life without disruption.
While each location brings individual character, the heart of the experience remains universally powerful. From the moment visitors enter the experience, they are transported into a multisensory environment that blends light, colour, music, and space. With its territory-specific adaptability and proven logistics, this stands out amongst worldwide experiences and travelling immersive exhibits.
Shared VR Storytelling: “Finding Vincent”
In early 2025, Grande Experiences launched its latest addition to this global exhibit - the groundbreaking shared VR experience Finding Vincent SVR, adding a new layer of depth and emotion to the story. This immersive 15-minute adventure places visitors in Van Gogh’s world as they travel with his brother, Theo van Gogh, searching for Vincent across 19th-century France. Combining 360-degree visuals, spatial audio, and narrative voiceover, Finding Vincent SVR invites visitors into a world where history meets innovation. Whether you’re a VR enthusiast or a first-time explorer, this interactive Shared VR journey delivers unparalleled emotion and educational engagement — and adds a new level of depth to the Van Gogh story.
A New Era of Art Exploration
As audiences worldwide search for more meaningful, transformative encounters with art, Starry Night featuring Van Gogh Alive delivers an experience that is both deeply personal and globally resonant.
It invites every visitor, whether a lifelong art lover or curious first-timer, to slow down, look closer, and feel something real. To stand within a masterpiece. To hear the music behind the brushwork. And to understand Van Gogh, not just as a painter, but as a person.
For cultural venues, museums, municipalities, and event organisers looking to elevate their offering, this world-class immersive exhibition powerfully combines creativity, innovation, and emotional connection, to engage audiences anywhere.
