Banijay Live Studio unveils THE BLACK MIRROR EXPERIENCE ®
March 31, 2026
Banijay Live Studio, part of Banijay Live, announces the launch of THE BLACK MIRROR EXPERIENCE®, a premium immersive adventure blending physical space and virtual reality, produced in partnership with Univrse, a state-of-the-art VR studio. The public world premiere will take place at Infinity Experience in Montreal – one of North America’s leading destinations for location-based VR entertainment. Doors open May 21, 2026, with additional locations to be announced soon
The all-new experience is inspired by the award-winning dark, satirical TV anthology, which explores humanity’s uneasy relationship with technology. Blending sci-fi and social commentary, Black Mirror, a Banijay Entertainment format, which resides on Netflix, has earned 29 major awards (including 9 Emmys and 4 BAFTAs) across seven seasons, captivating over 3.3M global subscribers and 86M social views.
THE BLACK MIRROR EXPERIENCE® is brought to visitors by Banijay Live Studio, an entity created over a year ago by Banijay Live, with the mission to turn Banijay Entertainment’s most iconic IPs into world-class location-based entertainment experiences. With each of Black Mirror’s episodes holding a mirror up to our relationship with technology, showing how our digital choices shape society, this first-of-its-kind experience will force visitors to make these same choices.
Groups are invited to the exclusive opening of Phaethon’s showroom – a tech giant about to unveil its most ambitious creation yet: LifeAgent, a robot designed to simplify your life, understand your desires, and help you become your best self. At first, everything feels seamless. Reassuring. Almost perfect. Until it doesn’t…
François de Brugada, CEO, Banijay Live: “At Banijay Live, we’re expanding Banijay Entertainment’s relationship with the screen into real-world experiences.

Tristan Desplechin, Producer, Banijay Live Studio: “Our ambition with Banijay Live Studio is to transform Banijay Entertainment’s iconic, world-renowned IPs into experiences that you can only live in-person. BLACK MIRROR® is the perfect starting point – a universe that is as thought-provoking as it is cinematic. Working with Univrse, we have built something that doesn’t just extend the franchise – it redefines what location-based entertainment can be.”
David Bardos, Director & Founder at Univrse: “Bringing BLACK MIRROR® into the physical world pushed us to deploy technology that has never been seen before in the location-based entertainment sector. What we have built with Banijay Live Studio sets a new standard for what this industry can achieve – technically, narratively, and experientially.”
