The Experience
Blurring the boundaries between concert and narrative science fiction, Contact takes its guests on a mind-blowing journey through a simulation set in a distant future, ruled by the enigmatic entity, Mother. With the help of two extraterrestrial robots, an A.I. named Darlin, and the electrifying beats of Daft Punk, visitors will be swept away on a 3+ hour, awe-inspiring adventure that delves deep into the heart of what it means to be human.
Nestled under a massive 12,000 square feet VR dome of Wisdome LA, boasting a cutting-edge 360 LED Pyramid Stage, this unique narrative production showcases the crème de la crème of DJs, cirque performers, immersive actors, and musicians. Seamlessly blending cutting-edge dome content, breathtaking lasers, 3D mapping, and practical effects, the show pushes the boundaries of creative imagination to new heights, making it the ultimate tribute to Daft Punk’s unforgettable legacy.
Prepare to be dazzled by an elaborate, multi-room, and multi-layered immersive pre-show experience, carefully crafted to entice visitors into the unfolding narrative and set the stage for the upcoming performance. The main event features a cutting-edge live DJ show, pushing the limits of what is possible. The crowning moment of the experience is a kaleidoscopic, story-driven, multimedia, and live musical reimagining of Random Access Memories, the iconic album that Daft Punk never performed live and had originally intended as a space opera.
Get ready to explore the depths of your own humanity and pay homage to Daft Punk's enduring legacy. Contact is a mind-bending journey that will leave you breathless and is a must-see event for all music, sci-fi, and experience enthusiasts alike.
