Enter the Grid: A 'TRON: Ares' immersive experience comes to London

Fans of the digital frontier can prepare to step inside the electrifying world of TRON: Ares as Disney Studios transforms The Venue, Piccadilly, into an immersive experience for one day only, on Thursday, October 2. This unique event invites the public to journey deeper into the Grid than ever before, with free tickets available now via Eventbrite.

Located in the heart of London, the experience promises to blur the lines between the real and virtual worlds with cutting-edge lighting design, immersive soundscapes, and futuristic set pieces. Guests will enter through an LED-lit corridor that fully immerses them in the Grid, leading to a one-of-a-kind photo opportunity with the iconic Lightcycle. The experience will be brought to life with a surround-sound score composed by the Grammy-winning rock band Nine Inch Nails, whose music for the film will pulse through the space.

The immersive experience will be opened on October 1 by the cast of TRON: Ares, with a red carpet event taking place above the lights of Piccadilly Circus for the first time ever. The public can then explore the installation the following day.

The film, directed by Joachim Rønning, stars Jared Leto as a highly sophisticated Program, Ares, who is sent from the digital world on a dangerous mission to the real world. The film marks humankind’s first encounter with AI beings and also features a star-studded cast including Greta Lee, Evan Peters, and Jeff Bridges.

This one-day event offers a thrilling taste of the new film, which is set to release in UK cinemas on October 10.
