Montreal, Novembre 26, 2025 — Following a request for proposal issued earlier this year by the Port of Montreal, the Infinity Experiences team is proud to announce the arrival of Panorama Expérience, a brand-new immersive venue coming to life in the heart of the Old Port. The official opening is scheduled for February 24, 2026.

Conceived as a must-visit immersive destination, Panorama Expérience will offer experiential journeys that provide a fresh and nuanced perspective on the connections between nature, technology, and the contemporary. The venue will become a vibrant laboratory for immersive storytelling, giving both Montrealers and tourists privileged access to local and international works that reimagine our relationship with the natural world.

Living Waters— The first journey centred on the theme of water

To inaugurate this new space, Living Waters invites you to an immersive art destination in Montreal’s Old Port where stunning visuals and technology reveal aquatic nature’s hidden wonders through the work of four artists: Marshmallow Laser Feast, Maxwel Hohn, Maryse Goudreau, and Mandy Barker.

“In the heart of the exceptional Port of Montreal’s Grand Quay, Panorama Expérience will offer unique immersive journeys just steps away from Old Montreal and only a few metres from the city’s founding site. We invite everyone to discover this innovative cultural destination, which enhances Montreal’s urban and tourist offering in a city that is ever more creative and inspiring. The first experience will also be an opportunity to reconnect with the deep bond that unites Montreal and the water.” — Julie Gascon, President and Chief Executive officer, Montreal Port Authority
