Immersive Experience at Phoenix des Lumières: Personal Account of "Asterix and Obelix" Exhibit in France
Experience the magic of Gaulish village life as you walk through the "Asterix and Obelix: An Immersive Adventure" exhibition at Phoenix des Lumières in Dortmund. This digital art experience, running until August 31, 2025, offers visitors a journey through iconic comic scenes and locations, brought to life by immersive projection technology and spatial sound.
Located in the former gas blower hall of the Phoenix West blast furnace plant, the exhibition takes you on an adventure through lush Gaul, dry Spain, misty Great Britain, and hot Egypt. As you move freely, discovering new perspectives, you'll find yourself in close proximity to characters like Asterix or view the entire village from a distance. Animated comic panels by Albert Uderzo adorn the walls, floors, and columns, while the soundtrack perfectly conveys emotions, ranging from soft and dreamy to dynamic and loud.
The immersive nature of the exhibition makes it a must-see for both long-time fans and newcomers to the stories of Asterix and Obelix. It's an experience that leaves visitors with a wide grin and the feeling of having just returned from a Gaulish village. Majestix's appearance, carried on his shield, adds to the Gaulish spectacle, making visitors feel like they are part of the action.
The exhibition serves as a loving tribute to one of the greatest comic series of all time. However, it is not recommended for children under two or under five years old due to the immersive nature and content.
To secure admission, consult official Phoenix des Lumières resources or local event platforms. Early booking is advisable given the popularity of the immersive experience. Please note that parking fees near the venue have been reported as relatively high, with about €6 for under two hours, so plan accordingly.
