ExCeL London | Entertainment district<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Bringing together some of the biggest names in TV, film, music, art and gaming, as well as a variety of original productions, Immerse LDN<\/a> will celebrate the very best of immersive entertainment and build upon the success of previously hosted events including Jurassic World: The Exhibition and Disney100: The Exhibition, which have collectively sold more than 600,000 tickets.<\/p>\n

The FRIENDS\u2122 Experience |<\/strong> Formula 1\u00ae<\/strong><\/p>\n

Opening in August 2024, Immerse LDN will first welcome exciting new experiences such as The FRIENDS\u2122<\/a> Experience: The One In London, bringing fans one step closer to their favourite TV show with nostalgia-packed recreated sets, iconic backdrops, costumes and props, Formula 1\u00ae<\/a>: The Exhibition, an interactive journey through the extraordinary story of motorsport\u2019s greatest spectacle, and more exciting offerings to be announced soon.<\/p>\n

Street food, food hall & bar and caf\u00e9 <\/strong><\/h3>\n

Immerse LDN will also house a wide variety of food and drink offerings, beginning with street food collective KERB<\/a> \u2013 serving some of London\u2019s most exciting street food \u2013 followed by a brand-new waterside food hall & bar and caf\u00e9 later in the year. Outlets will include established KERB eateries such as Duck Shed (wraps, salads & burgers), Masa Taqueria (Tacos), Nazari (Middle Eastern cuisine) and speciality London-roasted coffee house Hej.<\/p>\n

New experiences at Immerse LDN<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Later this year and into 2025, Immerse LDN will continue to expand and launch further stages of the development which will encompass new experiences, as well as impressive plans for the area\u2019s hospitality and afterhours corporate offering. The latter will afford new post-event activities and F&B offerings, including \u2018take overs\u2019, for exhibitor parties and event organisers, in addition to networking and socialising opportunities on ExCeL\u2019s new-look waterfront.<\/p>\n

Humaid Al Dhaheri, Chairman of ExCeL and Managing Director and Group CEO of ADNEC Group<\/a>, reiterated the organisation’s unwavering commitment to strategic investments for the long-term growth and development of ExCeL. He stated: “Our 25,000 sqm expansion, property acquisitions, venue infrastructure enhancements, and now our new waterfront event space, Immense LDN, underscore our dedication to innovation and diversification, positioning ExCeL London at the forefront of the global event industry.”<\/p>\n

ExCeL\u2019s CEO Jeremy Rees added: \u201cExCeL London<\/a> is already synonymous as the home of world-leading events. Now we want to build on that and create a space where guests, both local and international, can enjoy the very best of immersive and experiential entertainment in one place. This project has been years in the making and a multi-million-pound investment which, once fully complete, will attract an additional 2.5 million visitors a year to the Royal Docks and will be one of the most connected entertainment districts in the world, benefitting from the high-speed Elizabeth line, two DLR stations and the IFS Cloud Cable Car.\u201d He added: \u201cOffering something for everyone, Immerse LDN aspires to become a destination in its own right, where visitors can explore experiences and enjoy great food and drink, all set against the striking waterfront of the Royal Docks.\u201d<\/p>\n
