Horizon of Khufu: An Immersive Expedition to Ancient Egypt Arrives in Brisbane
Industry leaders of cultural entertainment in virtual reality, Excurio, along with global live-entertainment platform, Fever, are launching the Brisbane debut of Horizon of Khufu, a meticulously researched, free-roaming VR experience to the hidden wonders of Ancient Egypt. Launching at Fever Hub Brisbane on Friday 27th March 2026, the experience takes guests back 4,500 years to the most iconic and historically significant Great Pyramids of Egypt - all without leaving the city.

Led by a virtual guide, visitors will experience Ancient Egypt like never before with exclusive access to the most fascinating aspects - many of which are forbidden to the public in real life.


  • Soar over the Giza Necropolis at sunrise, witnessing the last remaining wonder of the ancient world.
  • Ascend the Pyramid of Khufu for a thrilling 360° panoramic view of the plateau.
  • Explore the burial corridors and chambers of the Great Pyramid, including the Queen's Chamber, during an immersive embalming ceremony.
  • Embark on a boat journey along the Nile, attending the funeral procession of King Khufu.
  • Discover the mastabas, the tombs of pharaohs' inner circles, in the shadows of the pyramids.
  • Traverse the eternal sands of Giza, encounter the majestic Sphinx, and conclude with a breathtaking nightfall visit at the Pyramid of Giza

First launched in Paris in June 2022 and now touring the U.K., U.S., China, and Canada, Horizon of Khufu has captivated over one million visitors worldwide, earning an average rating of 4.8 out of 5 stars. Curated with guidance from Egyptologist and Harvard professor Peter Der Manuelian, the experience offers one of the most authentic representations of Ancient Egyptian history and architecture, using verified data from the Giza Project to meticulously recreate the pyramids and surrounding sites.


Guests enter a shared VR play space, transformed into life-sized avatars. Excurio's cutting-edge technology enables them to see and interact with other participants, experiencing realistic sensations alongside family and friends during the 45-minute immersive expedition, for a deeply engaging dive into Ancient Egyptian culture.


"With Immersive expeditions, we aim to make time travel a reality and bring the world's wonders to your doorstep," said Fabien Barati, CEO of Excurio. "Horizon of Khufu has been extremely well received across the globe by people of all ages. We hope you, too, will be captivated by this once-in-a-lifetime journey through Ancient Egypt."


Phil Mallet, Originals Regional Manager from Fever said, "We are thrilled to continue working with Excurio and help them to bring the immersive expedition in VR 'Horizon of Khufu' to Brisbane after the Sydney success. The way they have been using cutting-edge virtual reality technology to allow people to explore the wonders of ancient Egypt in an unprecedented way aligns perfectly with our mission to democratise culture and entertainment."
