Edinburgh art lovers are set to enjoy two 'incredible' immersive experiences coming to the city later this year.
Beyond Monet and Beyond Van Gogh are coming to the capital, from November 29. Hosting the Scottish premiere of the experience, the event will run until January 4.
The 'spectaculars' will be staged at the Royal Highland Centre, with tickets going on sale on June 18. Both displays feature an immersive room that is 10,000 square ft in size.
Beyond Monet features more than 400 of his legendary works, and takes visitors on an 'unforgettable journey'. In Beyond Van Gogh, you'll see more than 300 of the icon's paintings 'blended with cutting-edge technology'.
Both are accompanies by a specially curated musical soundtrack, as the painting come alive.

This comes after Van Gogh Alive: The Experience, which came to the capital in 2022 and saw thousands flock to Festival Square to walk among the sunflowers. It was part of a hugely popular touring experience.
Anna Parry, UK Business Development at Annerin Productions, said today: "I'm absolutely delighted we're bringing Beyond Van Gogh to Edinburgh this Christmas, particularly after the very warm welcome Scottish art lovers have already given the experience in Glasgow and the demand for tickets for this summer's Aberdeen run.

"I'm also excited to be able to present a very special Scottish premiere – Beyond Monet: The Immersive Experience – in the city. Edinburgh was at the heart of the Scottish Enlightenment and art has always played a hugely important role in its cultural landscape.
"Beyond Monet is a stunning show packed with many of his most important and most powerful artworks, immersing art lovers in his revolutionary impressionist world and accompanied by a wonderfully evocative soundtrack."
