Following record visitor numbers in 2019, this year’s Virtual Reality Pavilion will move to a new location.

In the iconic setting of neimënster, festivalgoers will find more than a dozen VR and innovative work that count among the most groundbreaking and acclaimed the international scene currently has to offer; from impressive films – some of them Luxembourg co-productions–to stunning XR-and AI-based installations.

One of the Pavilion’s exhibition spaces will be dedicated to a focus on French immersive content pioneers Atlas V.

The third edition of the Pavilion’s industry event VR Day on the 6th March will once again bring together international experts for case studies and conversations about the latest trends and developments faced by XR  and immersive media professionals today.
