We came here for the Titanic experience. It was so good! I loved the life size replica rooms!!! It was so cool to experience. And the music that went with it was so nice. The information was so well put together and I loved the artifacts. So glad we got to experience this! read more

We visited the Gogh experience some years ago and were very impressed. The Monet one was good but lacked the excitement the van Gogh one gave us. The biggest surprise was the $10 booking fee on top of the $30 a person, plus tax, tickets. We bought the tickets at the entrance of the exhibit, buying them on line would not have made a difference. Quite a surprise, as it is nowhere mentioned on the website. read more

Visited the Titanic immersive exhibit for my 14 year old daughter's birthday. At first she seemed kind of bored with the exhibit but got excited when we did the VR experience. This was an extra $10 per person and was really fun. Otherwise the exhibit was just okay. It is a self guided experience. I think it would be better with a tour guide. read more

We were here to see the virtual Monet exhibit. The senior price is $30.00 per ticket, plus tax, but even though we bought our tickets right there at the exhibit, we were charged a $10.00 "booking fee". I questioned it. I was told that I would have paid the same fee had I purchased my tickets on line. That's understandable, but when buying them right there, that is not only strange, but greedy. read more

Saw the Van Gough immersive experience here a few years back and it was excellent; far better than the venue in Sacramento for that project. The Monet experience was equally as good. Be prepared to pay the extra five dollars for the Virtual Reality experience at the end as the extra charge, while annoying, is worth it. read more

We visited the Titanic exhibit on Monday. We had loved the van Gogh exhibit and we were so looking forward to another great experience. Pass this one up folks. Cheaply done, sparsely laid out and the absolute worst seating in the immersive room, and I still cannot believe that the company thought that was adequate seating. You get to slide in or jump in a boat to watch the Mersiv experience with hard wooden seats and those were for the lucky ones. We were forced to sit on slanting boxes that had flower sacks push up against him so you were either seated down.k or you had to turn around with your back and watch the video that way. A complete waste of $100, out on 30 for the parking and we wasted a lot of money. read more

The Van Gogh exhibit was amazing. His works have stood the test of time and will live on for generations to come. Van Gogh was a visionary and one of the most prolific painters of all time. This exhibit is great and one which should be seen and enjoyed by all. It's a must for art enthusiasts and those who appreciate fine work. A must see. Don't miss it. read more

I came recently for the Immersive Van Gogh Experience, and I am glad I did. I have driven by the New Orleans Scottish Rite Temple several times now as it is right in the Central Business District of New Orleans, I just have never had a reason to stop in. For the Van Gogh exhibit, you enter on the first floor, climb the stairs to start the exhibit. This is the absolute best exhibit. I am not sure exactly what I was expecting, but this was amazing. I look forward to coming to future events here. There is no specific parking lot dedicated to this place, but there are several paid parking lots nearby. The streetcar runs right in front. And there is always Uber and Lyft and taxis as options for getting here. read more

We were very disappointed with the Monet Immersive Experience after seeing Van Gough. The Monet exhibit only had 2 rooms that were really somewhat exciting: the room that was supposed to look like his study, and the immersive room. My mother, who purchased the tickets for 8 of us, was so upset. She said it was a let down, and she really would have liked to try to get a refund it was so bad. read more

I was enjoying a cup of coffee across the street and noticed the Van Gogh exhibit so I bought a ticket online. Very easy check in. Came on a Sunday morning so..no crowds. I had a Very nice experience! Very informative. I had a great time. I spent about 1 1/2 hours down the Van Gogh rabbit hole. Check it out! read more

While the static parts of the experience were wonderful, the main event, the moving, animated display, was marred by the oddly shaped room it was projected onto. Broke the images in odd, disconcerting ways. Rather disappointing. read more

There are three main topics in this review: (1) a disappointing exhibit and show; (2) forced installation of a privacy-invasive app to communicate with Fever; and (3) being told in person that a ticket could be refunded but this later being denied. First, the show had basically four components. Initially, there's a small room with all information content printed on posters to be read--it's not interactive, nor immersive, more reading at a museum. The next space is a recreated painted scene with the bridge that you see in the online photos--interesting but felt very artificial. Next is a recreation of a room in Monet's house with paintings and some furniture. Then, there's the 360º movie. The movie was quite creative at times, and the music was lovely--there's no content, only images. However, the room had VERY irregular walls that ruined the 360º effects--this was due to the crazy distortions created by the irregular walls. Lastly, there's a place to use crayons and color and an add-on VR experience if you want to pay extra. I expected an immersive experience, more like the Hamilton exhibit, and that there'd be more content that I didn't have to read (beyond the first room). The next challenge was communication with Fever about the exhibit. Tickets are for a specific date and time. I bought three tickets: one for each of my parents (83 and 82 y/o) and for me. My parents weren't feeling up to going, so I wanted to find out if I could change my tickets. The only way to communicate with Fever directly is to install their app, which is fairly privacy invasive. I chose not to install the app when I purchased the tickets because of how invasive it is. However, when I realized that the "contact" method through the website is sending a request via an online form, I realized that it could be awhile before I'd hear back (and this was about an hour before our scheduled time of our tickets). I decided to install the app, but due to a bug in the app (or conflict with my iPhone), three validation attempts failed, with a message that the code was invalid. I copy-pasted and typed the code, so the code was correct. I eventually went 1.5 hours late with only my mom (my dad still wasn't well enough). I parked next to the exhibit and checked with the person scanning tickets to be sure we would be admitted even though we were so late. The person scanning tickets was super nice and graciously said my mom and I could still come in. She gave me a QR code to scan for a refund for my dad. After paying the $17 to park, we walked through the exhibit. When I got home, I scanned the code and filled out the form for the refund. The next day, I got a response that there would be no refund per their terms and conditions; they also said it would be impossible to refund one ticket because I bought three tickets together. Lastly, I never got a response from the first form I submitted, the one in which I asked if I could reschedule the tickets to a time when my parents were feeling better...still waiting on a response. I'll never book another venue through Fever and have deleted the app from my phone. read more

Amazing location for the van gogh experience.

My review is not indicative of the Temple itself, it is more so about my experience with the Immersive Van Gogh Experience. I attended the event on 6/30/22 and it was an amazing event. Something like out of a movie if you ask me. I lived about 45 mins away from New Orleans so I took my family and we drove down for the experience for a summer time getaway. I originally wanted to purchase my tickets online but decided to wait until I arrive so I could purchases the discounted veteran price admission. I presented my card to the attendant and he seemed to process the transaction but it did not go through so he asked me to redo the transaction again. I inquired while doing this and asked if my card will be debited twice and assured me that it wouldn't. However on the next day I saw the transaction on my debit card twice back to back. It was going into the July 4th weekend therefore I figured my bank would not be of any assistance until after the weekend. I reached out to my bank and I was informed that the transaction was definitely processed as two purchases however they could only do a claim once the transaction complete pending charge status. There is no number to call at the exhibit to inquire about a refund for one of the charges so I research online for the vendor who does the transactions for the exhibit. I found FEVER as the company and I submitted an email request for a refund explaining what happened, I was told to provide the last four numbers of card along with some more pertinent information and I submitted that. I never heard anything back from them so I continued on with my claim through my bank (Chase). My bank did a reversal but only to come back about five weeks later and deduct the money from my account because they contacted the merchant and they informed my bank that it was a not an overcharge. So I recontacted the company for the Van Gogh Experience online once again and via their Instagram account to explain that I had not received my proper refund. My bank has issued me another credit temporarily because I disputed the charge again but I am concerned the company will tell my bank again it was not overcharged when they can clearly see that it was both on my bank side as well as the company if they do their due diligence and check my card. I am tired of being jerked around about this matter so I decided to inform anyone that may be thinking of attending to purchase your tickets online so you won't have to go through what I am. This has taken away from my experience of this exhibit and I wanted to go again but I will not because of this. read more

I was not able to go on the date I got tickets and contacted the organizer and they wouldn't change the dates or give me a refund. Over $100 wasted. Thanks for nothing. read more
