Wings and Wizards merges world-building, art, tech, storytelling and design

There’s a new magical interactive experience coming to BC Place this summer. Wings and Wizards is an immersive entertainment experience that promises to bring a little magic back into the lives of the young and young-at-heart all summer long. The fantastical adventure will be set up in 7,000 square feet of space at the stadium and will run from June 8 to September.

Wings and Wizards

A marriage between mystical lore and technological artistry, Wings and Wizards is an interactive exhibit that merges storytelling, world-building, and design with cutting-edge interactivity to create a sublime magical adventure. Self-guided and touch-free, Wings and Wizards uses motion tracking, proximity-based devices, lights, projections, props, and soundscapes to weave a truly spellbinding 45-minute experience.

Each party receives a “magic wand” that can interact with motion-activated, proximity-based displays while following along a self-guided adventure mission. There is no touching the exhibit and everything is done with the wand. And, when your quest comes to its end, the wand is yours to keep.

This fantastical exhibit is produced by SHINE Experiences, a non-profit dedicated to bringing pass-through, audio-visual art experiences to the public. Wings and Wizards will showcase the talents of three of Canada’s top locally based production companies: Go2 Productions, Innovation Lighting and Spectra Event Group.
