Technology and Art – LASERVISION Creates World-class Customer Experiences in Dubai

December 14 2017, Dubai, UAE: Following the 46th UAE National Day on the 2nd of December—a celebration of the UAE’s Union Day between the seven emirates with a plethora of world-class entertainment options—it can be said that customer engagement in the region has flourished in recent years. The UAE’s entertainment sector is expected to boost tourism revenues to $44 billion by 2020, and consumer interaction and immersive technologies are at the forefront of the entertainment technology movement, as demonstrated by Laservision with Dubai Festival City’s IMAGINE.

IMAGINE is a prime example of the quality of immersive technology and entertainment in the region, celebrating its one-year anniversary on the 26th of December. A world record-setting spectacular conceptualised, designed and installed by Laservision, IMAGINE is undoubtedly one of Dubai’s most magnificent entertainment and tourism attractions, contributing to the spectacular redevelopment of Dubai Festival City Mall.

Used for National Day celebrations in 2016 and 2017, the launch of Game of Thrones Season 7, special events and more, IMAGINE has seen astronomical success with an increase of 40% footfall to the Mall within the opening 6 months. “IMAGINE signifies the endless opportunities and possibilities of viewers from Dubai and around the world to interact and be a part of the show and to connect with something truly unique,” said Steven Cleaver, Director Shopping Malls, Al-Futtaim Group Real Estate.
