BBC Earth Experiences Attraction

The world around us is a fascinating and miraculous mystery. With millions of different species of animals and variations of life, mother Earth offers us an unique home. However, how many of us in our lifetimes will have the chance (or time) to explore each corner of the Earth? Watch diverse natural environments be brought to life in the BBC Earth Experiences in London.

Find out how the award-winning British programme, Planet Earth, has been transformed into a 360-degree audio visual spectacle. We’ll tell everything you need to know about this experience. Oh, and we have some BBC Planet Earth facts down below too!

Based on the award-winning series ‘Planet Earth’, narrated by David Attenborough, Earl’s Court hosts an immersive experience where visitors can travel across the seven worlds of our planet.

How is this possible, I hear your ask? While listening to the familiar and warm tones of David Attenborough’s voice, guests will be stood in a room that has been transformed by the latest digital technology. From every angle, landscapes and animals from the natural world will be projected onto the walls. You’ll wander around the immersive scenery feeling every sight and sound in nature.

This mind-blowing attraction also has breakout zones where you can dive even deeper… Plunge into the Water World or absorb the spectacular sweeping landscapes of the Vista Stage. Test your bravery by meeting some creepy crawlies in the Micro Life Zone area (they will be on the screens, don’t worry!)

No explorer wants to be tied down to a specific route. The art to this immersive experience lies in its authentic adventure. Follow your own path in this majestic 360-degree audio visual journey. Connect with animals you never dreamed of being so close too. Observe every crystal clear detail of each scale, fin, or blade of hair.

It’s one thing watching the BBC’s ground-breaking natural history content on TV but experiencing this immersive event in person, is another. Whether you are interested in the unseen wilderness or wish to walk through iconic landscapes, there’s something magical waiting for you at Earl’s Court.

Seven Worlds in One Planet

If you attended this show you already know the amazing sights that could potentially feature in BBC Earth’s new attraction. This event was presented by Steve Backshall and showcased a selection of spectacular natural history scenes from each of the seven continents.

It’s no wonder why Planet Earth is BBC1’s most-watched documentary series. We get to see incredible visuals of life on Earth in all its manifestations.

We are seeing things we may never have seen in our lives if it weren’t for the advanced technology and efforts of the production team.

So, we’ve picked out top 5 favourite facts about the series that are sure to make your mouths do this ‘o’. Are you ready?

• Did you know what it took to make the series? Over 1,500 people worked on this project. There were 92 shoots, shot across 41 countries!
• Sir David Attenborough presented from a hot air balloon in one of Planet Earth’s at the age of 90!
• Bears LOVE to smash up camera equipment… Just watch the ‘Grasslands’ episode of BBC’s Planet Earth.
• Ever wondered how this famous series shows us the changing climates in each episode? The team on Planet Earth uses flawless time-lapse photography to show climate and seasonal changes. They do this by placing a camera in a stationary position where it takes photographs over days, weeks, or even months which condenses time.
• The music from BBC Earth’s series Blue Planet II was composed by Academy Award winner Hans Zimmer. You may already know his work from The Lion King, to the Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Inception, Interstellar and 12 Years a Slave!

This free-roaming experience covers everything from aquatic adventures to life in the desert and the Earth’s lushest rainforests. If you are keen to watch the beauty of life unfold before your very eyes, then make sure to book your tickets ASAP!
