The World of Barbie is an immersive exhibition that has made its U.S. debut in Santa Monica. The attraction offers fans the opportunity to experience life inside Barbie’s dream house. The exhibit also features various interactive installations and a museum exhibit that traces the evolution of Barbie, her dream house, and her iconic vehicles.
Adult tickets for the exhibit start at $34, while children tickets begin at $26. The World of Barbie was initially planned to stay open only for a month. However, due to its popularity, it will remain open until September 4th, allowing visitors more time to experience the set world and what it means to be a Barbie fan.
Kilburn Live, Mattel, and global sports, fashion and events giant IMG conceived the immersive activations at Santa Monica Place. Mark Manuel, CEO of Kilburn Live, stated in a news release, “From day one, this has been so much more than the typical experience… It’s a set world and you can experience what it’s like to be a Barbie fan.”
Attendees can try on some of Barbie’s iconic career outfits, step into the West Coast Customs House, and even sit in the Barbie Camper. Visitors can also interact with Mission Control and board the Barbie Space Shuttle that “travels” to several interstellar destinations.
A range of after-hours and special events will also unfold at the Southern California location, such as Pink Her Carpet Her Night, Movie Days, and Sip After Sunset.
If you want to purchase tickets for new dates, they can be purchased at the exhibit’s official website.
