Banijay Benelux announced that TwentyTwo Productions is entering the live entertainment space through a new collaboration with French immersive producer Lotchi, a Banijay Live company, to bring Luminiscence to the Netherlands for the first time. Becoming the fourth country to host the production, the Dutch edition will premiere on 7 November at Delft’s iconic heritage site, Oude Kerk, and will run for a limited two-month season.
Luminiscence is a 360° multi-media experience, fusing cutting-edge technology, live music, and immersive storytelling. The show has already enchanted almost one million visitors across Europe’s most beautiful cathedrals and churches, from France and Spain to Germany, which launched just last week. The production is currently being globalized by Banijay Live’s Lotchi and a number of Banijay Entertainment’s production labels.
Audiences in the Netherlands will be immersed in stunning 3D light projections, live choral music, and a powerful voiceover by Dutch actor Daan Schuurmans, bringing to life a thousand years of Dutch history—from the legacy of William of Orange and the artistry of Johannes Vermeer to remarkable moments of resilience and freedom.
Paul van der Maesen, Producer at TwentyTwo Productions, praised the experience: “When I first experienced Luminiscence in France, I was absolutely blown away. What a spectacle. The combination of an unparalleled light show with beautiful music in such a special location is simply breathtaking. Expanding into live events is both complementary and an exciting new chapter for TwentyTwo, and our initiative to launch the experience at Delft’s Oude Kerk showcases the creative potential of this production" commented.
Finally, Romain Sarfati, Founder of Lotchi, highlighted how an immersive experience of this kind transcends borders: “Bringing Luminiscence to the Netherlands, and to such an iconic landmark as Delft’s Oude Kerk, is a true milestone in our international journey. This collaboration with TwentyTwo Productions not only breathes new life into a place rich with history and artistry, it also demonstrates how Luminiscence can transcend borders, transforming heritage sites into living stages of wonder. Together, we are setting a new benchmark for immersive cultural experiences in Europe," commented.
