HAPPY PLACE, LA’s Immersive Exhibition Opens In Auckland Today

By Sammy Preston

It’s been dubbed the world’s most Instagrammable exhibition—selling out stints in Los Angeles, Chicago, Toronto, Boston, Las Vegas and Sydney—and it’s set to land in Auckland this Friday.

Called HAPPY PLACE, it’s made up of a maze of rooms, each featuring larger than life, whimsical and immersive installations, designed to help you “find your happy place” and it's coming to Auckland's Spark Arena from Friday 23 April for a limited season.

Inside, you’ll travel through a bunch of massive installations and multi-sensory rooms including the world's largest indoor Confetti Dome, six-foot-tall X’s and O’s surrounded by red lips, the famed Rubber Ducky Bathtub, the wildly popular Cookie Room scented with the aroma of freshly baked chocolate chip cookies, an Upside Down room that defies gravity, and Super Bloom, a room filled with 40,000 golden handmade flowers.

HAPPY PLACE founder and veteran American event producer Jared Paul said he created the travelling exhibition because, “we could all use a lot more happiness”, and so he designed a literal oasis of smile-rich moments for everyone to dive on into.

The event will be carefully managed from start to finish as well to ensure a limited number of people can move through the exhibit at any time with safety guidelines implemented.
