Infinity des Lumières — Attraction in Dubai

There are 2 aspects to an Art Exhibition. I'd give it 5 stars for the Art alone if I could because that element is truly excellent. The visual and musical elements are captivating, even trippy at times, and I was pleasantly surprised by the 3rd exhibition: Verse. That one should come with an epilepsy warning however because of some fast flashing sequences but I loved it. Sadly the Exhibition part of the event leaves a lot of room for improvement. The first and foremost quality that exhibits like this require for the audience to truly enjoy the experience is a clear line of sight. It's a shame that the Art is ruined in some places by the poorly placed fire extinguishers (which could easily have been moved for the occasion to the many pillars found all over the area) and the several door signs and lights on which the visuals are projected upon. A clear, clean surface would make the whole thing so much better.The positioning of chairs also makes no sense whatsoever. They should be central to maximise the field of vision of the audience. Instead they are right in front of the screens, meaning that people behind are forced to have between 2 to 4 people in their line of sight, not counting those who think it's a good idea to come stand right in front of the wall. There should be a line of demarcation that prevents people from interfering with the Art and obstructing the rest of the audience. On a brighter note the lighting is fine and the music was particularly excellent. I watched the Dream Japan section twice for that alone. The staff is also great, very friendly and helpful, no complaints there whatsoever. FYI tickets online are 25 bucks a piece cheaper than at the counter and I'd suggest you go there really early to have the place for yourself and enjoy the show without a bunch of philistines running around flashing their phones or cameras all over the place for their social media accounts instead of just being in the moment. So overall a good experience that could be much better with a few technical...

Infinity des Lumières ("Infinity of Lights") is an enjoyable virtual museum that opened on the 2nd floor of the Dubai Mall on July 1, 2021. There are sister museums in France and South Korea.

The galleries are large spaces where paintings or occasionally photos are projected on the walls and floors, with relaxing Romantic-style symphonic music playing quietly (e.g. Dubussy and Tchaikovsky). The immersive experience is to like stepping inside the painting. The gallery lighting largely comes from the projected images, so it's a lower-light, relaxing ambiance. The imagery is changing and moving to create a dynamism in all of the galleries. There are many comfy benches to take a break and watch the swirl.

The two galleries were for van Gogh and Japanese art when I went on July 2021. Another gallery was showing the short movie "Verse," which is the sort of trippy outer-space film you might see at a planetarium or natural-history museum.

Like the museum as a whole, the movie is more more to have a low-key "wow" factor than to educate. Indeed, I noticed few placards or other instructional aids. Instead, the museum is designed to be eye- and ear-candy, a lush, immersive experience with beautiful visuals and music. This is not a place to go to learn about art history or science.

If this museum succeeds in Dubai, a large part of its appeal will be how Instgrammable it is. You'll see lots of people taking photos or videos of people enmeshed in the colorful, dynamic artwork. Be prepared to pay dearly for this Instagram fodder: The price was 125 dirhams per adult when I went (about 37 dollars).

Another appealing aspect of the museum is its relaxing vibe. Even children seem to mellow out here. I could imagine many harried families at this humongous, frenetic mall taking a 60 or 90 minute break at...

This was our second time visiting the Infinity des lumieres exhibition and most deffinetly not my last.

A magical show that takes you out of your thoughts and imerses you in a relaxed eye catching experience. The combiantion of light and sound engages you and each show has a beauty of its own. The shows change from time to time keeping it a destination you will want to look out for and keep visiting.

We visited the Van Gogh and Japan exhibition previously and was blown away. This time we visited the 'Future Now' exhibition which is more educational about the UAE however still did not fail to amuse us and keep us engaged.

There is a private room you can enter where its silent no talking is allowed where you can enjoy the same show more privatley.

The staff are friendly and helpful and the exhibtion hall is clean. The exhibition room is wheel chair friendly. The place is unique of its kind and is to be enjoyed for all ages. My two year old daughter enjoyed it just as much as we did.

Entrance for under 2 years old is complementary for adults its 150 Dhs each (we booked once we got there it seems to be cheaper from their website). You get to enjoy two exhibitions currently 'Destination Cosmos' & 'Dubai Data'.

Once we exited the exhibition there is a gift shop that has souvineers that you can ourchse if you wish to.

I strongly...
