Sir David Attenborough is set to narrate a brand-new immersive BBC Earth Experience, which is set to launch in London next year.
The beloved historian, 96, is lending his soothing voice as he guides visitors through the World’s seven continents and features footage from the BBC’s Seven Worlds.
Sir David’s cherished One Planet first aired on BBC One in 2019, with over 1,500 people working on the series, which consisted of 92 shoots across 41 countries.
The BBC Earth Experience, which will arrive at the brand new Daikin Centre in Earl’s Court in March, will see the footage, including extended scenes, projected on multiple multi-angle screens using the latest digital screen technology.
Visitors will be taking a look at species from every corner of the world, from fireflies putting on a spectacular light show in North America, snub-nosed monkeys huddling together to stay warm in Asia and hungry hamsters fighting to keep their food in Europe.
Speaking about the riveting project, BBC’s global director of live entertainment, gaming and interactive Mat Waye said: ‘We are delighted to partner with Moon Eye Productions and Live Nation to bring the BBC’s ground-breaking natural history content to this amazing live immersive London location for everyone to enjoy.’

The BBC Earth Experience is a collaborative offering from BBC Studios, Moon Eye Productions and Live Nation.
Frederik van Alkemade, chief operating officer of Moon Eye Productions added: ‘At Moon Eye Productions our aim is to create new experiences that leave guests ‘moon-eyed’ in wonder.
‘Utilising the best natural history series in the world, courtesy of BBC Studios, we knew we could create our first immersive event to achieve our goal.
