Launched in 2024, the Immersive Competition highlights the most exceptional immersive, collective, and interactive works that incorporate cutting-edge technologies such as VR, AR, artificial intelligence, and video mapping. These innovative experiences immerse audiences in narratives that transport them across time, space, and into uncharted realms of artistic expression.

With the support of the CNC (French National Centre of Cinema), the Immersive Competition aims to establish Cannes as a global hub for the immersive arts community. It offers festival attendees a unique opportunity to experience groundbreaking immersive works in competition, as well as a curated selection of non-competitive projects.

In a special closing ceremony, an international jury of prominent figures from both cinema and immersive art will announce the winner for Best Immersive Work, further cementing the competition’s importance within the broader cultural landscape.
