Become 007 with new immersive experiences in London and New York

Have you ever fantasized about becoming James Bond? Who am I kidding? Of course, you have. What if I told you that now you can do just that? It’s true, and it’s all thanks to two immersive exhibitions happening in New York City and London.

The “007xSKYSCAPE: The James Bond Immersive Exhibition” takes place at the Skyscape in Midtown Manhattan, where  “projection mapping and larger-than-life installations take you inside the magic of 007,” according to a press release. The exhibition launch on September 9, but tickets are still up for grabs. The experience will run you $23 per person. You can also choose to invest in the VIP treatment, which comes with a 156-page hardback book.

The 90-minute walk-through offers much of what you’d expect, including never-before-seen images, animations, and interviews from the set of Skyfall. The showcase also houses plenty of Bond memorabilia like Bond’s Aston Martin DB5 and a plethora of gadgets and devices from Q’s lab.

If you’re in the market for something a bit fancier, you’ll need to travel to London. The “Bond for a Day: Immersive Tour and Dining Experience” includes a visit to Mayfair, the Floris Museum, and a shooting range — topped off with a Vesper and Vodka Martini at the 5-star Taj Hotel.

The London tour opened on September 24 and is hosted by an espionage expert who escorts guests to several locations related to Ian Fleming and the “secret corners” he talks about in his books. This exhibition is nearly an all-day affair and takes six hours to complete. During that time, guests will be given a lesson on counter-surveillance techniques and a shooting range session using Bond’s preferred weapons.

Tickets are on sale now, with packages beginning at $364.

Meanwhile, the latest Bond film, No Time to Die, opens in theaters on October 8th. Our own Chris Bumbray was lucky enough to see the film early, and you can read his full review of Daniel Craig’s 007 swan song here.
