SUMMARY:Unbuilt: What We Can Learn From Our Most Precious Projects
DESCRIPTION:This workshop is about featuring unbuilt experience projects – from the famous like Walt Disney’s failed Mineral King ski resort in the Sierra Nevada Mountains to the hidden like the Turner Entertainment Experience that was killed by the AOL merger with Time-Warner. \nKey takeaways: \nPeople will learn lessons from unbuilt projects\, including the history of the experience industry\, why projects fail (and it’s not always because of ROI) and most importantly\, that there are no previous ideas because often times the timing just isn’t right.\n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Invitation To Play: How Gaming Experiences Drive Fandom
DESCRIPTION:Today’s guests don’t just want to be entertained – they want to play with the worlds they love.  \nFrom Netflix House to year-round horror attractions\, the most talked‑about brands are borrowing straight from gaming: multi-level engagement\, shared missions\, and communities that feel more like squads than audiences. \nIn this session\, we’ll show how gaming principles – honed in live experiences like Brawl Stars: Welcome To Starr Park – can transform any attraction\, pop‑up\, or touring experience into a living fandom engine. \nYou’ll learn how to design moments that invite guests to play together\, not just pass through\, and how to measure success in terms of belonging\, not just bodies through the door. \nCome ready to steal from gaming in the best way possible. \nKey takeaways: \n\nA Multi‑Level Engagement Map\nA plug‑and‑play framework to design for casual guests\, engaged fans\, and super-fans in the same experience—so there’s always a next level to climb.\nA Shared Experiences Toolkit\nPractical prompts to answer “What do our guests actually do together?” and turn passive scenes into memorable\, co-created moments people talk about later.\nAn Actionable Pilot Plan\nA clear first step for testing these ideas in your next event\, pop‑up\, or touring experience—without needing a blockbuster budget or a total redesign.

SUMMARY:Positivity as a Strategy: How Pinterest Is Redefining Experiences
DESCRIPTION:The most memorable experiences aren’t just well-designed; they happen in the right emotional environment. And for brand and experience leaders and operators\, the platform is part of the experience. \nWe know from behavioural science that emotional context shapes everything: how audiences process what they encounter\, what they retain\, and how they respond to the brands they meet along the way. \nThe environment is not neutral. It is doing work – either for you or against you. \nPinterest has built something rare: a platform where people arrive with intention\, in an open and aspirational state of mind. Positivity by design isn’t a tagline but is a deliberate set of product\, policy\, and cultural decisions that shape every interaction on the platform. \nIn this exclusive in-conversation session\, behavioural scientist Lea Karam opens with a short provocation on emotional architecture: why the context surrounding an experience is as powerful as the experience itself\, and what the science tells us about how positive environments change human behaviour and recall. \nLea then interviews Pinterest’s MD Caroline Orange-Northey on stage for a frank\, expansive conversation about what it looks like to build a platform around inspiration\, discovery and positivity – and what experience designers\, brands\, and operators can take from it. \nA conversation on positivity by design\, emotional architecture\, and what happens when a platform puts human experience first; you won’t want to miss this.

SUMMARY:Roundtable: Have We Cracked the Formula for Profitable LBEs?
DESCRIPTION:Please come along and join in the debate with our expert panel. \n\nTitle: Have We Cracked the Formula for Profitable LBEs? \nA Business of Experience Roundtable \nDescription: \nImmersive and location-based experiences are booming. But beneath the hype\, a harder question is emerging: have we actually figured out the formats that make money — and is the next frontier distribution? \nAre we moving toward a world of standardised “black box” venues showing touring content\, like cinemas and theatres? And if so\, what does that mean for creativity — and for the future of the sector? \nAre we still inventing the medium — or starting to scale it? \nKey Questions: \n\nHave we found repeatable\, profitable formats — or is the model still evolving?\nWhat actually drives LBE profitability (utilisation\, pricing\, throughput)?\nTouring vs permanent: which model works best\, and when?\nHow should IP shape your format and business model?\nAre “black box” distribution networks the future of LBE?\nWhere do most projects fail financially?\nStory vs spectacle: what actually drives demand and repeat visits?\nDoes standardisation limit creativity — or unlock scale?\nIn an ever busier era\, how does marketing of museums and nuseums need to change?\n\nWhat You’ll Come Away From This Roundtable With: \nA clear\, practical understanding of the commercial mechanics behind successful LBEs — and where the sector is heading next.

SUMMARY:How to Pitch (Almost) Anything: Build Yours in 45 Minutes
DESCRIPTION:You need to pitch yourself\, your company\, or your next project—but how do you explain something intangible?  \nExperience professionals face a unique challenge: clients can’t see value until it exists. \nThe result? Rambling explanations\, blank stares\, projects that die before they start. \nThis hands-on workshop uses the Pocket Pitch framework from How to Pitch (Almost) Anything (Pearson\, 2025). \nYou’ll craft a working two-sentence pitch that translates vision into language stakeholders understand—whether pitching clients\, explaining your studio’s value\, or presenting a concept. \nBring a notebook. Follow the framework. Leave with a pitch you’ll use tomorrow. \nKey takeaways: \n\nThe Pocket Pitch Framework: A repeatable structure from Strategic Story Design that works for any pitch\, any room\, any context. Called a “Pocket Pitch” because it’s always with you — compact enough to remember\, flexible enough to use forever.\nYour Completed Pocket Pitch: You won’t just learn the framework\, you’ll build yours during the session. Leave with a working two-sentence pitch for yourself\, your company\, or a specific project — ready for proposals\, client conversations\, and networking the very next day.\nAudience-First Thinking: The Pocket Pitch works because it’s built on story structure — the same patterns behind every compelling narrative. Leading with how you help rather than what you do puts your audience at the center of the story\, which is exactly where they need to be.\nThe H.E.L.P. Checklist: Four questions that quality-check any communication before it goes out — not just pitches\, but briefs\, proposals\, emails\, and presentations. A practical editing tool drawn from the book that you’ll use long after the session ends.\nOne Framework\, Many Contexts: The same Pocket Pitch structure works whether you’re pitching yourself as a freelancer\, positioning your studio\, or presenting a specific concept to a client. The session shows you how to adapt it so you leave with more than one application in mind.

SUMMARY:LANDER 23 | Clockwork Dog Show
DESCRIPTION:While you’re at London Experience Week 2026\, why not take in one of the capital’s best experiences: LANDER 23. \nLANDER 23 is supercharged by Clockwork Dog’s COGS system. Formed in 2016 Clockwork Dog enable cutting edge immersive attractions and experiences around the world to control audience flow\, track specific groups\, integrate different technologies\, connect all departments\, create custom dashboards and much more. \nGo on the Clockwork Dog Tour at your leisure throughout London Experience Week 2026. \nWhile you’re at the Summit\, pop along to the Clockwork Dog booth in The 103 to say hi to the team and tell them what you thought. \nYou can also check out the cool Clockwork Dog activations throughout the Ministry of Sound\, plus two workshops led by some of Clockwork Dog’s founders. \n  \n\n  \nAbout LANDER 23 \nLANDER 23 is a live-action video game created by immersive theatre pioneers Punchdrunk. \nIn this 90-minute experience\, teams of four become the crew of a spacecraft sent to investigate a mysterious alien city after the previous mission vanished. \nYou’ll explore physical environments\, communicate through live comms\, solve challenges under pressure and race against the clock to complete your mission. There are no spectators. Everyone plays. \nYou are welcome to arrive up to 30 minutes before the start of your time slot and enjoy our on-site bar. The bar is also open after your mission. \nThe closest stations to Punchdrunk are Woolwich (Elizabeth Line)\, Woolwich Arsenal (DLR and National Rail)\, and Woolwich Pier for the Thames Clippers. \nIf travelling by tube or train\, the easiest route is to take the Elizabeth Line to Woolwich\, which is around 15 minutes from Canary Wharf and about 20 minutes from central London. From the station\, it’s just a short walk to the venue. \nFor a more scenic journey\, you can also take the Uber Boat by Thames Clippers to Woolwich (Royal Arsenal Pier)\, which is only a few minutes’ walk away and offers great views along the Thames on the way.

SUMMARY:Beyond the Individual Experience: Mapping Experience Ecosystems
DESCRIPTION:From high streets to cultural districts\, experiences are rarely created in isolation\, yet the ecosystems that enable them are fragmented and invisible. \nWhile micro high-street businesses are good at creating meaningful experiences\, they often struggle to translate these strengths into growth\, innovation or long-term resilience. Limited resources\, time and funds are common challenges. \nThe session introduces network analysis as a practical tool for mapping relationships among businesses and other actors\, like place managers\, funders. Ecosystem mapping reveals gaps and opportunities for collaborations. \nThrough a participatory mapping exercise\, participants leave with a tool to apply ecosystem thinking in their own contexts. \nKey takeaways: \n\nA simple ecosystem mapping approach to visualise relationships between businesses\, support organisations and other stakeholders.\nA practical way to identify gaps\, under-used support and non-monetary value flows such as knowledge exchange within an experience ecosystem\, supporting resilience and collaboration.\nA clear entry point for applying ecosystem thinking when supporting experience-led businesses working in resource-constrained contexts.

SUMMARY:Puppetry as a Gateway to Participation in Immersive Experiences
DESCRIPTION:Many immersive experiences struggle to invite participation without instruction or pressure. This hands-on workshop explores puppetry as a craft for designing invitations to play.  \nWorking directly with puppets from The Wylding Woods\, participants will experiment with gaze\, movement\, scale\, and restraint to feel how small choices open or close audience engagement. \nThe focus is not on puppetry technique\, but on how puppets communicate permission\, safety\, and curiosity—especially across mixed-age audiences. \nAttendees will leave with embodied insights they can apply to participatory moments in their own work. \nKey takeaways: \n\nA felt understanding of invitation vs. performance\nTools for lowering audience anxiety and resistance\nTransferable patterns usable beyond puppetry

SUMMARY:How to Create Emotion Through Technology
DESCRIPTION:Way too many “tech-driven experiences” don’t make you feel anything. \nThis is different. \nThree of the world’s most exciting tech-driven creators each get 7 minutes to show us how it’s actually done: \nFrom France — Bruno Ribeiro (ribeirobruno.com)\nWorking at the frontier of shared immersive worlds\, Bruno will talk about his work with Jay Rinsky and Little Cinema on The Matrix in shared reality at COSM – where scale\, story\, and technology combine to create collective emotional experiences. \nFrom Germany — Felipe Sánchez Luna (KLING KLANG KLONG)\nA creative director pushing the edges of light\, sound\, and spatial installations—known for turning abstract tech into visceral\, physical moments. The KLING KLANG KLONG team’s audioscapes opened up this morning’s Summit in The 103. \nFrom Canada — Catherine Turp (Moment Factory)\nOne of the minds behind globally renowned immersive environments like ‘Lumina Night Walks’ and large-scale multimedia spectacles that consistently move audiences at scale. \nThis is NOT a panel. There’ll be minimal explanation. \nJust sound\, light\, visuals\, and instinct—used well enough to actually move a room full of people. \nThey can show a case. Build a moment. Drop us into something. \nThe only brief we’ve given them: make us feel something real. \nAwe. Tension. Joy. Unease… let’s see! \nIf it works\, you’ll know. If it doesn’t\, you’ll know that too. \nThree different backgrounds. Three different creative languages. One shared question: \nCan technology really make us feel – or are we all just pretending it does?

SUMMARY:WXO Experience Awards 2026 with Immerse LDN
DESCRIPTION:The WXO World Experience Awards 2026 take place on Tuesday 21 April at Ministry of Sound from 7-9pm.  \nThe ceremony marks the end of Day One of the World Experience Summit\, a part of London Experience Week 2026. \nWe’re delighted to announce our friends at Immerse LDN will be sponsoring the Awards evening. \nWinners are decided by votes by members of the World Experience Organization – all leaders and practitioners shaping this industry – can vote. That is what gives these awards their unique weight. \nTickets are still available – click here for more. \n  \n——————– \n  \nABOUT WXO EXPERIENCE AWARDS 2026 \nBeing shortlisted is winning. At this level\, the difference between entries for the WXO Awards is rarely clear-cut. It is subjective. Context matters. Taste matters. What resonates with one judge may not with another. \nAll this is true – unless\, of course\, you win \nThis is the third year of the WXO World Experience Awards\, and the standard has risen markedly. The depth\, rigour\, and ambition of submissions this year signal a field coming of age. \nLike the Oscars\, these awards are decided by peers. \nJust as the Oscars are voted for by members of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences\, so only members of the World Experience Organization – all leaders and practitioners shaping this industry – can vote. That is what gives these awards their unique weight. \nWe planned for six shortlisted entries for most categories. In several cases\, ties made that impossible. It felt churlish to exclude people and work at this level. \nFor Experience of the Year\, we managed to stay at 12 shortlisted entries\, though the volume and quality made selection unusually difficult. (There are many exceptional experiences that are not on this list. \nIt’s been a real pleasure reading\, watching\, considering this list. We hope you enjoy celebrating with the finalist and winners at the end of Day One of the World Experience Summit. \nWe hope to see you there.

SUMMARY:What Game Engines Actually Enable in Location-Based Experiences
DESCRIPTION:Spectacle is no longer enough to sustain engagement in location-based experiences. Yet one powerful solution remains vastly underused.  \nToo often\, game engines like Unreal function merely as pre-viz or rendering tools\, rather than as systems for interaction\, state\, agency\, and personalization. This session explores how lightweight game mechanics\, logic layers\, and rule-based design can deepen immersion and enable meaningful personalization — without turning LBEs into “games” or disrupting operations. \nDrawing on real-world projects\, it offers practical ways to introduce interaction that supports throughput\, resilience\, and guest experience\, while avoiding the assumptions that keep teams anchored in spectacle. \nKey takeaways: \n\nA Mechanics Ladder (passive → reactive → interactive → systemic) to evaluate interaction depth\nA decision matrix for determining whether an experience is ready for mechanics\nA shared vocabulary for discussing mechanics with non-game stakeholders\nClear guidance on where not to use game logic (and why)

SUMMARY:Roundtable: ZERO TO HERO? What We Can All Learn from Escape Rooms
DESCRIPTION:Full guest list to come. Please come along and join in the debate with our expert panel. \n  \n\n  \nTitle: ZERO TO HERO? What We Can All Learn from Escape Rooms \nA Business of Experience Roundtable \nHost: David Middleton \nDescription: \nIn the early 2010s\, escape rooms were on the sort of growth curve that gets investors\, rightly\, excited. And then\, the growth plateaued. Or did it…? With a leading panel of escape room specialists\, we look at what happened to the rise\, ‘fall’\, and what the escape room pioneers did next. \n(Because they’re all around us\, building some of the most immersive\, amazing\, successful experiences.) \nBut we think there are not only how to make experience learnings\, there are also category learnings\, and that it’ll help you figure out what you should do now\, and what you’ll be doing in the future. \nKey questions: \n\nWhat drove the initial growth of the escape room industry?\nWhy did the industry stall?\nWhich operators are still thriving?\nWhat are the pioneers doing now?\nWhat does this teach us about all experience formats?\nWhat does it suggest how each one of us should approach our work?\n\nWhat You’ll Come Out Of this Business of Experience Room With: \nA clearer understanding of the mechanics of escape rooms\, and how they can inform the design of experiences today. \nThe limits of new categories\, and how to plan for them. \nA better ability to recognize the experience category you work in\, and how that may evolve in the 2020s/2030s.

And what can show design teach us about building products used by millions? \nAs “Mr B” from Public Service Broadcasting\, Gerred has helped create and perform immersive\, story-driven shows at venues ranging from the Royal Albert Hall and Glastonbury to the Natural History Museum\, Caerphilly Castle\, and the British Library. \nTouring together in Europe\, US\, Asia and Australia/NZ\, these aren’t just concerts – they are carefully designed experiences\, built around pacing\, anticipation\, emotional peaks\, and shared moments of wonder. \nAlthough they use different language\, these Public Service Broadcasting shows relied on the same principles we obsess over in product design: onboarding\, narrative flow\, attention management\, friction\, reward\, and memory-making. \nThen we reverse the lens. \nDrawing on experience in e-commerce\, interactive design\, and product leadership\, we look at how UX frameworks\, research methods\, and iteration cycles can surprisingly inform how live shows and large-scale spectacles are conceived. \nAt first glance\, the parallels are obscure. But scratch the surface\, and you’ll discover a shared experience grammar that may permanently change how you think about experiences – whether they live on a stage or on a screen.

SUMMARY:Breathe Wild: Live Performance
DESCRIPTION:Breathe Wild is a live audiovisual experience from Jeena Earthiva and George Berlin. \nGathering attendees together in The 103\, the piece offers an immersive journey through music\, visuals\, and emotional storytelling. \nAnchored by ex-Bollywood singer Jeena’s live vocals and George’s live visual mixing\, the work moves from a dreamy\, reflective atmosphere into a bold\, untamed release — holding space for both tenderness and unapologetic self-expression. Blending voice\, sound\, and cinematic imagery\, the performance creates an emotional arc that feels at once intimate\, expansive\, and alive in the moment. \nDeveloped from Jeena’s song Breathe\, the piece was first translated into a large-scale visual work presented in Finland as part of Lumen Rauma\, commissioned for the city’s 120th anniversary celebrations. \nFor that commission\, George remixed the music and created a striking projection-mapped visual narrative that brought the song’s raw emotional essence into public space. \nFor today’s experience\, he will be live mixing and reworking visuals from that original performance in real time\, creating a dynamic dialogue between image\, sound\, and Jeena’s live vocal performance. \nReimagined for a live audience setting\, Breathe Wild invites attendees into a richly human world of sound\, image\, and presence — immersive\, cinematic\, and emotionally resonant. \nSee Breathe Wild as a projection map at Lumen Rauma: https://www.georgeberlin.com/rauma \nListen to Jeena’s Breathe Wild playlist on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/album/7ItgLsZ6pIDYtgcJyT57uV \nABOUT GEORGE AND JEENA \nGeorge Berlin is an award-winning experience designer and visual artist creating large-scale immersive works across music\, spatial design\, projection mapping\, and visual storytelling. \nJeena Earthiva is a singer\, artist\, and immersive experience creator whose work explores emotion\, embodiment\, and transformation through sound\, story\, and multisensory experience.
