Banijay Live Studio Announces First European Stop for THE BLACK MIRROR EXPERIENCE™
May 6, 2026
Banijay Live Studio, part of Banijay Live, is proud to announce the arrival of THE BLACK MIRROR EXPERIENCE™ in Madrid. The premium immersive adventure – produced in partnership with Univrse, a cutting-edge VR studio – will open its doors at Espacio Delicias on June 4, 2026. Following its world premiere at Infinity Experience in Montreal on May 21, 2026, this latest city marks the first European location for this landmark location-based entertainment experience, with further locations set to follow.
Drawing on the award-winning dark, satirical TV anthology created by Charlie Brooker, THE BLACK MIRROR EXPERIENCE™ blends physical space and free-roaming virtual reality to put visitors at the centre of a completely new, standalone story set within the Black Mirror universe – no prior knowledge of the series required.
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 3.3 million global subscribers and amassing 86 million social views. Its seventh series premiered on the streamer in April 2025.
A NEW KIND OF STORY
THE BLACK MIRROR EXPERIENCE™ is not a game, not an escape room, and not a passive show. It is a 60-minute hybrid experience – physical and digital – in which groups of up to six participants become the protagonists of an entirely original Black Mirror narrative.
Visitors 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…
The experience invites audiences to examine the role technology and artificial intelligence play in our lives – in a format that is as thought-provoking as it is entertaining.
François de Brugada, CEO, Banijay Live:
“Until now, location-based VR meant visiting somewhere – a cultural site, a moment in history. With The Black Mirror Experience, you’re no longer visiting a world. You’re the protagonist of the story.”
Tristan Desplechin, Producer, Banijay Live Studio:
“Bringing The Black Mirror Experience to Europe is a milestone for Banijay Live Studio. With captive, culturally engaged audiences, Madrid is the perfect next home, and we look forward to seeing how visitors respond to what we’ve built.”
