One of history’s most fascinating stories comes to life as Tutankhamun – The Immersive Exhibition makes its Nordic debut in Malmö this October. This groundbreaking exhibition takes visitors on a journey back in time to ancient Egypt, offering a unique opportunity to explore Pharaoh Tutankhamun’s tomb and treasures like never before. Supported by the Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM) in Cairo, the exhibition was nominated in 2024 as the best museum exhibition by National Geographic and History Magazine. This prestigious recognition highlights the exhibition’s innovative use of digital technology to bring the wonders of ancient Egypt to life.
Having captivated 1.5 million visitors worldwide in cities such as Madrid, Barcelona, Vienna, Cairo, and São Paulo, this interactive and visually stunning exhibition is now ready to enchant Swedish audiences. By combining the latest technology with historical artifacts, visitors can experience 360º projections, augmented reality (AR), and virtual reality (VR). They will feel as though they can almost touch the lush banks of the Nile, the arid desert, and the magnificent temples built thousands of years ago.
Relive one of history’s greatest archaeological discoveries
Visitors will follow in the footsteps of explorer Howard Carter, hearing his voice recount the sensational discovery of Tutankhamun’s tomb 100 years ago. The tomb’s incredible collection of over 5,500 artifacts, including priceless gold items, is recreated with lifelike 1:1 replicas. The exhibition offers an up-close look at one of the greatest archaeological discoveries of all time and delves into the life and mysteries of the young pharaoh.
