Antopia: Explore a World of Secret Senses


Enter Antopia, where you shrink down to the size of ants to experience a day in the life of an ant colony.

Discover a complex and fascinating superorganism in this immersive, interactive experience that digitally reinterprets a world of secrets we cannot see.

  • Experience the astonishing chemicals ants use to communicate through brightly coloured pathways and glowing light trails.

  • Explore physical interactives, stunning digital animations and five immersive spaces.

  • Engage with interactive projections that respond to your movements and marvel at innovative 3D sculptures and interactive sensory lighting.

  • Nurture cute baby ant eggs as they glow and grow to fill the nursery space.

  • Shrink down into supersized blades of grass and help worker ants gather food and keep the colony safe from external dangers.

From creators of the award-winning exhibition Tyama, Antopia is perfect for families, kids and adults. This contemporary and immersive fusion of art x science is for everyone and promises an adventure like no other.
